Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0174754A1] The invention concerns a method for preparing alkyl nitrites of formula (I) R ONO wherein R represents a C1-C20, advantageously C2-C10 linear or branched alkyl group. The invention is characterised in that it consists in gradually and continuously adding in an aqueous medium, an alcohol of formula (II) R OH, R being as defined above, a nitrite of formula (III) M NO2, wherein M represents a metal cation, and a strong acid, so as to form continuously said alkyl nitrite, and in continuously drawing off said alkyl nitrite thus formed from the reaction medium.
