Chemical warfare agents dimethyl methylphosphonate

Figure 1 Structures of chemical warfare agents (sarin and soman), simulants (dimethyl methylphosphonate and diisoproyl fluorophosphate), and pesticides (paratliion and diazinon).

The basic experimental studies of the interactions between organophosphorus compounds and metal oxide surfaces have been carried out intensively during the last several years. Metal oxides, such as MgO, AI2O3, FeO, CaO, Ti02 a-Fe203, ZnO, and WO3, are currently under consideration as destructive adsorbents for the decontamination of chemical warfare agents [46, 47], For example, several studies have addressed adsorption of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) (a widely used model compound for the simulation of interactions of phosphate esters with a surface) on the surface of these metal oxides [48-60], In most of these works, the authors have observed that, at first, DMMP is adsorbed molecularly via hydrogen...

Conducting polymer sensors have been proposed that can detect ppm levels of pollutants (9), as well as chemical warfare agents such as dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) (9). Gases such as CO, NH3, HCl, and HCN can...
