1-Formyl-2,2-dimethylhydrazine as a new decomposition product of 1,1-dimethylhydrazine

摘要

A new decomposition product of 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), 1-formyl-2,2-dimethylhy-drazine (FDMH), was found in water and soil samples. The formation of FDMH was confirmed by LC-MS and NMR studies. The possibility of FDMH conversion to initial UDMH by alkaline hydrolysis was shown.
