Decomposition Kinetics of Nitroglycerine·Cl<sup>–</sup>(<i>g</i>) in Air at Ambient Pressure with a Tandem Ion Mobility Spectrometer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A dual-shutter ion mobility spectrometer operating at atmospheric pressure and interfaced to a gas chromatograph for sample introduction has been used to study the reaction of Cl(-) with explosives. Of particular interest was an investigation of the formation of NO3(-) from the reaction of the Cl(-) with nitroglycerin (NG). The adduct NG·Cl(-) together with NO3(-) and NG·NO3(-) compose the mobility spectrum. Over the temperature range 111 to 122 °C, NG·NO3(-) is stable, but NG·Cl(-) decomposes to NO3(-) and 1,2-dinitro-3-chloropropane (DNClP). The activation energy and pre-exponential factor for this first order decomposition are 80 ± 3 kJ mol(-1) and 1.3 × 10(12) s(-1), respectively. Ab initio calculation shows that the reaction is a substitution reaction occurring over a two well potential energy profile with stable ion-molecule complexes NG·Cl(-) and DNClP·NO3(-).

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
