Methyl nitrite can be prepared by the reaction of silver nitrite with iodomethane : Silver nitrite ( AgNO 2 ) exists in solution as the silver ion, Ag + and the nitrite ion, NO 2 ".

For example, nitrite may be measured as nitrite ion or expressed as N . A standard of " Nitrite as N " set at 1.4 mg / l equals a nitrite ion concentration of 4.6 mg / l.

Unlike plants, where electron transfer in photosynthesis provides the energy for carbon fixation, " Nitrobacter " uses energy from the oxidation of nitrite ions, NO 2 ", into nitrate ions, NO 3 ", to fulfill their energy needs.

Although hordenine is capable of reacting with nitrosating agents ( e . g . nitrite ion, NO 2 " ) to form the carcinogen N-nitrosodimethylamine ( NDMA ), and was investigated as a possible precursor for the significant amounts of NDMA once found in beer,
