Nitric acid is an oxidizing agent used in the oxidation and nitration of organic molecules.
Application
Nitric acid can be used as:
A catalyst for the aerobic conversion of benzyl ethers to benzaldehydes.
An oxidant for the oxidative bromination of activated aromatic compounds using alkali metal bromide salts to synthesize corresponding bromo-derivatives.
The need for highly reliable methods for the determination of trace elements has been recognised in analytical chemistry and environmental science. A method for the trace analysis of Pb and Cd in natural waters is described. In a preconcentration step
