Application

Ammonium nitrate can be used as a catalyst:
  • For the direct conversion of aryls, heteroaryls, and aliphatic esters to amides.
  • To synthesize 2-aminothiazoles via aerobic oxidative cyclization of ketones with thioureas.
It can also be used to quench Mizoroki-Heckreaction.

We present a gnotobiotic system for microbiota reconstitution on Arabidopsis thaliana under contrasting iron availability. This system induces iron starvation in plants by providing an unavailable form, mimicking conditions in alkaline soils. Inoculation of taxonomically diverse bacteria reconstitutes plants with

Nitrogen availability has a strong influence on plant growth and development. In this study, we examined the effect of nitrogen availability on xylogenesis in hybrid poplar (Populus trichocarpa x deltoides H11-11). Saplings of hybrid poplar were fertilized for 33 d with

Aging reactions in soils can influence the lability and hence bioavailability of added metals in soils through their removal from labile pools into pools from which desorption is slow (non-labile pools). The aims of this study were to examine the
