This document presents three methods for synthesizing nitroethane and provides details on each method. [1] The first method involves reacting sodium ethyl sulfate with a metal nitrite at 125-130°C, yielding nitroethane at 42-46% of theory. [2] The second method involves reacting an ethyl halide like bromide or iodide with silver nitrite at 0°C, yielding nitroethane at 83% of theory. [3] The third method involves reacting ethyl bromide with sodium nitrite in dimethylformamide, yielding nitroethane at 60% of
