Abstract :
Solvent effects on the ability of KF/Al2O3 supports to degrade the warfare agent sulfur mustard (HD) were explored. RP-KF/Al2O3 possessing hydroxide ions and ECUF/KF/Al2O3 holding fluoride ions were examined. Reactions on RP-KF/Al2O3 containing 10 wt % of organic solvents were faster than those on ECUF/KF/Al2O3. Additionally, RP-KF/Al2O3 led to elimination products, while ECUF/KF/Al2O3 mainly led to substitution derivatives. Enlarging the solvent amounts to 90 wt % resulted in decreased reaction rates. The significance of solvent identity/amount and active species is discussed. |
