Fungal peroxygenases have recently been shown to catalyze remarkable oxidation reactions. The present study addresses the mechanism of benzylic oxygenations catalyzed by the extracellular peroxygenase of the agaric basidiomycete Agrocybe aegerita. The peroxygenase oxidized toluene and 4-nitrotoluene via the corresponding

The photoluminescence from functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes was found to be highly sensitive to the presence of nitroaromatic compounds such as nitrobenzene, 4-nitrotoluene, and 2,4-dinitrotoluene. The strong luminescence quenching in solution was at the upper limit of diffusion-control and also
