Sodium solubility in diethylamine

Is metallic sodium soluble in diethylamine?

I'll try this in a week or two (or five), once my diethylamine arrives in the mail.

FWIW, it doesn't dissolve appreciably in diisopropylamine/THF.

Do you know the gram/gram proportion that will fully dissolve?

No. All I know is no appreciable amount did dissolve. This was stirred overnight...
