General description
Nitroethane reacts with sodium to afford sodium-nitroethane. Solution of nitroethane in caustic potash reacts with bromine to afford monobromnitroethane. It can undergo nitroaldol (Henry) condensation reaction with various aldehydes in the presence of copper(II) arylhydrazone complexes (catalyst).
pK of nitroethane is 8.60.4
Nitroethane is an aprotic solvent with high polarity, which on oxidation with glucose oxidase gives nitrite, acetaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide as the major products.

Under ambient conditions, the behavior of a solid surface is often dominated by a molecularly thin adsorbed layer (adlayer) of small molecules. Here we develop an optical approach to unveil the nanoscale structure and composition of small-molecule adlayers on glass
