REACTIONS BETWEEN NITRIC ACID AND ORGANIC COMPOUNDS. A REVIEW
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4103961
Nitric acid and nitrates react with organic compounds as an oxidizing agent, ranging from controlled syntheses to the sell-sustaining reactions of rocket fuels and gunpowder. Nitric acid and nitrates may react to form nitrate esters or nitro compounds. The reactions are usually exothermic, and the products are often thermodynamically unstable. Oxidation and nitration reactions usually occur simultaneously. Self-sustaining reactions were found in solutions, as well as in the dry state. (auth)
