Degradation of Chemical Warfare Agent Nitrogen Mustard Using Ferrate (VI)
Chemical warfare agents (CWAs) are one of the most toxic compounds. Degradation of CWAs using decontamination agents is one of the few ways to protect human health against the harmful effects of CWAs. A ferrate (VI)-based potential chemical warfare agent decontaminant was studied for the degradation...

description | Chemical warfare agents (CWAs) are one of the most toxic compounds. Degradation of CWAs using decontamination agents is one of the few ways to protect human health against the harmful effects of CWAs. A ferrate (VI)-based potential chemical warfare agent decontaminant was studied for the degradation of persistent nitrogen mustard (tris(2-chloroethyl)amine, HN3). By optimizing the reaction conditions, the complete degradation of HN3 was achieved in 4 min. The degradation products contained mostly reduced Fe species, which confirmed the environmental friendliness of the proposed decontamination solution. |
