CH 3 OH + HNO 3 → CH 3 NO 3 + H 2 O. A newer method uses methyl iodide and silver nitrate: [4] CH 3 I + AgNO 3 → CH 3 NO 3 + AgI. Methyl nitrate can be produced on a laboratory or industrial scale either through the distillation of a mixture of methanol and nitric acid, or by the nitration of methanol by a mixture of sulfuric and nitric acids.
Toluene (/ ˈ t ɒ l. j u iː n /), also known as toluol (/ ˈ t ɒ l. j u. ɒ l,-ɔː l,-oʊ l /), is a substituted aromatic hydrocarbon [15] with the chemical formula C 6 H 5 CH 3, often abbreviated as PhCH 3, where Ph stands for the phenyl group.
Impure dimethyl sulfate was prepared in the early 19th century. [4] J. P. Claesson later extensively studied its preparation. [5] [6]It was investigated for possible use in chemical warfare in World War I [7] [8] in 75% to 25% mixture with methyl chlorosulfonate (CH 3 ClO 3 S) called "C-stoff" in Germany, or with chlorosulfonic acid called "Rationite" in France.
The British Railways Standard Class 9F 2-10-0 is a class of steam locomotive designed for British Railways by Robert Riddles. The Class 9F was the last in a series of standardised locomotive classes designed for British Railways during the 1950s, and was intended for use on fast, heavy freight trains over long distances. It was one of the most ...
The phenylurea class of herbicides including chlortoluron are inhibitors of photosynthesis. They block the Q B plastoquinone binding site of photosystem II, preventing electron flow from Q A to Q B. [8] This interrupts the photosynthetic electron transport chain and kills the plant. [9]
Acetic anhydride, or ethanoic anhydride, is the chemical compound with the formula (CH 3 CO) 2 O.Commonly abbreviated Ac 2 O, it is the simplest isolable anhydride of a carboxylic acid and is widely used as a reagent in organic synthesis.
[10] [11] Publications may use both terms interchangeably. [1] [12] The Center for Strategic and International Studies believes that the CJ-10 is a member of the Hongniao (HN) series of missiles; [13] Ian Easton believes that the CJ-10 is the same missile as the HN-2, and that the HN-3 is the "DH-10A".

Acetamide (systematic name: ethanamide) is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CONH 2. It is an amide derived from ammonia and acetic acid. It finds some use as a plasticizer and as an industrial solvent. [5] The related compound N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) is more widely used, but it is not prepared from acetamide.
