TLC was employed to detect and quantify very low concentrations of β,β’-dichloroethyl sulfide (sulfur mustard, HD) [505-60-2], on the basis of visualization of spots and Rf values. Various reagents and reactions were examined with respect to their sensitivity and selectivity. In particular, chem. similar compounds like thiodiglycol or β,β’-dichloroethyl oxide as well as a variety of organophosphorus esters (pesticides) and halogen-containing organic compounds were subjected to the same anal. procedures so as to check the selectivity of the TLC methods developed for HD. The best separations were obtained by developing silica chromatophores in CH2Cl2–n-hexane (1:1) solvent. The most satisfactory evidence for the presence of HD is based on a reaction with iodoplatinate [PtI6]2- and the subsequent application of starch solution (ultimate sensitivity 0.1 μg/μL). Somewhat less sensitive (0.5 and 1 μg, resp.), but quite selective, is a reaction utilizing Michler’s ketone in the presence of HgBr2, which gives intense purple spots on a yellow background, and a photochem. reaction using AgNO3. Other sensitive and selective reactions are those with triphenylmethane dyes in conjunction with AgNO3 and with SeO2.
