Alkyl nitrites were prepared in good to excellent yields by treatment of alcohols and thiols with triphenylphosphine/2,3-dichloro-5,6- dicyanobenzoquinone/Bu4NNO2 in acetonitrile. This method is highly selective for the conversion of primary alcohols to alkyl nitrites in the presence of secondary and tertiary alcohols and thiols.

The report that nitroalkanes can be obtained from aliphatic alcohols and sodium nitrite in acetic acid - hydrochloric acid mixture was shown erroneous. Under these conditions no nitroalkanes but alkyl nitrites were formed.
