A chemoselective reductive method has been achieved for the preparation of 4-picrylamino-2,6-dinitrotoluene (PADNT), a new insensitive energetic material which has been characterised by spectral data and elemental analysis. Some explosive properties of the compound have also been determined and the

Trinitrotoluene (TNT) absorption was assessed in groups of workers at two explosives factories by measuring the urinary concentrations of dinitroaminotoluene (DNAT) metabolites. DNAT was detected in most of the urine samples analysed and for postshift samples the mean (SD) concentration

A series of metabolites of trinitrotoluene (TNT) have been synthesized and analysed by electron impact (EI) and chemical ionization (CI) mass spectrometry. Identification characteristics of these metabolites by their mass spectra have been determined. Differentiation of isomers is made possible

Metabolites of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) were found in the urine of rats fed with TNT. The urine extracts were analysed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Metabolites found included TNT itself as well as 2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene, 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene and 2,4-diamino-6-nitrotoluene, indicating that reduction processes
