Looking to buy nitroethane
Looking for nitroethane for a synth of aminomethyl propanol, but amateur chemistry gods have to make my life hard living in the US. Anyone have some
they have no use for? Thanks!

It's in Canada, so might be expensive shipping to the states... especially being a restricted chemical.
Hope this helps.

Then I don't know... Sorry. Depending on how much you need, it can be made. (But i'm almost sure it's cheaper to buy it somehow, the yields suck.)

Yeah the yields suck and none are even OTC, was hoping for a better solution.

ACRIFIX 1S0117 or 1S0116 (Google it), if you can figure out a way of separating the nitroethane.

Oooh! Nice find. You'll want the 117 stuff (pure solvent, the 116 is 'thickened', probably with dissolved acrylic.) Shouldn't be too hard to
separate (fractional distillation, perhaps followed by a water wash should give a good enough product for most purposes.)

Isn't that nitropropane?

Yes, I’m sorry.
Kiara Sky on eBay sells 15ml for $8.45 as a brush saver.

I've never sat down to price out one of the "reasonable" syntheses of nitroethane (sodium ethylsulfate procedure, I guess) but is it any cheaper/more
expensive than $8.45/15ml?

Why fractional distillation? Nitroethane has more than 25*c difference in BP to the other compounds except n-butanol. It might be easier to do
simple distillation and deal with the tiny butanol impurity if necessary.
No azeotropes to worry about either.
^^^ Referring to 0116 product.

be sure its the good one,
the quick set use nitromethane that has a lower boiling point so it set faster.

I say distill off the nitroethane / butanol azeotrope (bp of 117.8c) and add potassium acetate to lower the volatility of the alcohol? Other than that
can’t find much literature on n-butanol forming an azeotrope with either benzene or methanol (both don’t form one with nitroethane) which could
have been useful.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but none of the other components of this stuff would seem to impede a nitroaldol reaction. Huh.

I think you’re right, but all but n-butanol are easy to separate, and the alcohol definitely wouldn’t be an issue.

Just saw the shipping price to canada of acrylite-shop.com,
International Ground (residential): 492.09 USD
this is ridiculous

Maybe try e-mailing them? They could probably work out something cheaper than $500. It's not like you live in Borneo -- there's no reason it should be
that expensive.

Sample bottle size shipping to Pennsylvania cost me 20$, it isn't cheap unfortunately. But yes 500$ is ridiculous!

"Contains 50% Nitropropane and 50% Koolinal as blending and cooling agents.Koolinal also resists detonation and preignition."
I couldn't find weather it is 1- or 2-nitropropane. Knowing that 2-nitropropane highly carcinogen it must be 1-NP. I don't think that 2-NP would be
allowed in the US market such a high concentration.

I wonder which make acrifix 117 is an azeotrope. Refer to TDS, I found that acrifix 117 contains less than 1% solid. Does it has hydrogen bonding?

Looking to buy? As far as I know, that's OK.
Problem is, most folks here, if they had some, would be legally prohibited from selling it to you.
