SPIRIT of ETHER NITRITE (109-95-5) Thermally unstable. Heat around or above 190°F/88°C can cause explosive decomposition (may not need air or oxygen). Decomposes in air, sunlight, or moisture. Forms explosive mixture with air (flash point —31°F/—35°C). A powerful oxidizer. Violent reaction with acids, acid fumes, amines, ammonia, cyanides, reducing agents, other strong oxidizers, salts.

Dissolve 34 g. of o-nitroaniline in a warm mixture of 63 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 63 ml. of water contained in a 600 ml. beaker. Place the beaker in an ice - salt bath, and cool to 0-5° whilst stirring mechanically the o-nitroaniline hydrochloride will separate in a finely-divided crystalline form. Add a cold solution of 18 g. of sodium nitrite in 40 ml. of water slowly and with stirring to an end point with potassium iodide - starch paper do not allow the temperature to rise above 5-7 . Introduce, whilst stirring vigorously, a solution of 40 g. of sodium borofluoride in 80 ml. of water. Stir for a further 10 minutes, and filter the solid diazonium fluoborate with suction on a sintered glass funnel. Wash it immediately once with 25 ml. of cold 5 per cent, sodium borofluoride solution, then twice with 15 ml. portions of rectified (or methylated) spirit and several times with ether in each washing stir...

The Essential Oils reports that the best general method for making pseudonitrosites is to first dissolve the asarone in petroleum ether, hexane, or even mineral spirits, and then add a concentrated aqueous solution of sodium nitrite. Then after cooling the mixture, acid is slowly introduced, and the whole mixture shaken. The batch is then allowed to stand in the cold, and the crystals filtered out later. With the pseudonitrosite thusly obtained, it s time to move on to the next stage of the reaction scheme, that of producing the nitroalkene B-nitro asarone. Put 10 grams of the pseudonitrosite into any suitable flask which can be...

Ethyl nitrite, CgHgOgN, Mol. Wt. 75 07. This is contained in the B.P.C. preparation of Spirit of Nitrous Ether, which is an alcoholic solution containing ethyl nitrite together with decomposition products such as acetaldehyde, nitrous, nitric and acetic acids. If possible, original bottles filled to the neck should be used for analysis as the decomposition is fairly rapid in less favourable conditions of storage, especially with free access of air such as would be occasioned by the repeated opening of a bottle to extract portions. 

The volumetric assay of ethyl nitrite in Spirit of Nitrous Ether was devised by Smith, the nitrite reducing chlorate to chloride. It has been improved by Andrews in the following way ... 

Mix 15 ml of a saturated aqueous solution of potassium chlorate with 5 ml of dilute nitric acid in a 100-ml graduated flask and weigh. Add 10 ml of the spirit of nitrous ether from a pipette, shake and reweigh. Set aside in a moderately warm place for one hour and shake occasionally. Then add 20 ml of 0-1N silver nitrate, shake well and make up to volume with water. Filter, rejecting the first 20 ml of filtrate. To 50 ml of the remainder add 10 drops of iron alum solution and titrate the excess of silver nitrate with O IN potassium thiocyanate. 1 ml 0 1N AgNOa = 0 0225 g ethyl nitrite. 

Although by this method reproducible results have been obtained which were comparable with the nitrometer method for sodium nitrite. Spirit of Nitrous Ether and amyl nitrite, some workers have reported a considerable divergence between various methods and have generally attributed the variability to volatility of the nitrite and the presence of other oxidising substances.
