Analytical biochemistry, 236(2), 242-249 (1996-05-01)
A new method for the preparation of high concentrations of peroxynitrite (up to 1 M) is described. The synthesis uses a two-phase system and involves a displacement reaction by the hydroperoxide anion (in the aqueous phase) on isoamyl nitrite (in

The reaction of 6-acylmethylphenanthridines with isoamyl nitrite results alpha-oximino-6-acylmethylphenanthridines in 73-95% yields in DMF under ultrasound irradiation. Compared with conventional methods, the main advantages of the present procedure are milder conditions, shorter reaction time and higher yields.

Analytical biochemistry, 354(2), 165-168 (2006-06-06)
A method for the synthesis of peroxynitrite is described. It involves nitrosation of H2O2 at pH> or = 12.5 by isoamyl or butyl nitrite in mixed solvents of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and water at 25+/-1 degrees C. Maximum yields of

Diazotization of primary aromatic amines with isoamyl nitrite in benzene at room temperature was studied employing EPR and spin trapping techniques. Nitrosodurene (ND), 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane (MNP), and 5,5-dimethyl-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) were used as spin trapping agents. Aryl radicals were detected employing
