Reductive transformation of bound trinitrophenyl residues and free TNT during a bioremediation process analyzed by immunoassay

To follow the fate of bound metabolites of TNT in soil, a synthetic trinitrophenyl residue covalently linked to humic acids was used as model compound. A selective monoclonal antibody was able to detect chemical changes of the nitro groups of the bound re

Enzymatic Reduction of 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene and Related Nitroarenes: Kinetics Linked to One-Electron Redox Potentials

At military bases and munitions factories 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) is a common soil and groundwater contaminant. Although the reduction of nitro groups in TNT and related nitroarenes has been extensively investigated, few researchers have studied the l

A comparative study of the structure, energetic performance and stability of nitro-NNO-azoxy substituted explosives

2,4-Dinitro-NNO-azoxytoluene and 2,6-dinitro-4-nitro-NNO-azoxytoluene were synthesized as energetic compounds. Their structures and properties were studied by X-ray diffractometry, nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy. The differences betw
