Volatile nitrite in the form of amyl nitrite was used for 100 years for the treatment of angina pectoris. In spite of recognized toxicity, its use in this form was considered safe. During the 1960s prescriptions were not required for

The uptake of butyl nitrite by rats (500 g, one rat/chamber) was determined over a 5-min exposure period. About 44% of the starting amount (771-3855 ppm) of n-butyl nitrite was consumed in 5 min. Three rats per exposure concentration were

A method for direct functionalization of three positions including an unactivated C-H bond of aliphatic alkenes using tert-butyl nitrite and molecular oxygen to give γ-lactols has been developed. The present reaction proceeds through a sequence of radical processes involving oxynitration
