Nitric Acid → HCID 86628855, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Applicants have cost-effectively synthesized Ornithine Nitrate by combining nitric acid and Ornithine, mixing with water, and leaving to crystallize. Further nitratization can take place, yielding Ornithine Dinitrate or Ornithine Trinitrate. An alternative implementation comprises using Nitrous Acid (HNO2) instead of Nitric Acid (HNO3), thus yielding Ornithine Nitrite. Ornithine Nitrite has the same effects as Ornithine Nitrate, the only difference being that it requires one less step to yield Nitric Oxide (NO—). Mixed salts may also be used, such as in the non-limiting example of Ornithine Nitrate-Orotate.
