Reaction Steps

A 165-mg (1 mmole) sample of 1-bromohexane was added to 0.5 ml (1 mmole) of 2M tris(dimethylamino)sulfonium nitrite in acetonitrile. The course of the reaction was followed by glc analysis. No further reaction occurred after 15 min. Glc analysis showed that 1-nitrohexane and 1-hexyl nitrite were formed in a 70:30 ratio.
