Pseudo-nitrosites.-Two hundred cc. of propylene gas was confined for one to two days in a tube with 0.5 cc. of liquid nitrogen trioxide and 3-4 cc. of absolute ether.The propylene pseudo-nitrosite16 which separated was crystallized from ethyl acetate; m. p. 120°; yield 0.2 g. The crystals did not decompose in a week. Aliene pseudonitrosite,17 m. p. 88°, was prepared similarly in about 0.1-g. yield. These crystals decomposed within twenty-four hours. The precipitate which formed from 200 cc. of a 3:2 mixture of propylene and aliene was 0.1 g. of propylene pseudo-nitrosite, m. p. 120°. In another experiment 2 drops of diallyl was added to the mixture of ether and nitrogen trioxide before absorbing 160 cc. of propylene gas.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
