Nitrogen-containing compounds in diesel fuel have been speciated by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography with nitrogen chemiluminescence detector (GC x GC-NCD). The speciation of nitrogen-containing compounds in diesel is difficult because of low concentration and complexity. The advantages of GC x GC are improved resolution and enhanced sensitivity. GC x GC-NCD can achieve the type and class separation of nitrogen-containing compounds with an appropriate separation column combination. Diesel contains both neutral (indoles and carbazoles) and basic (pyridines and quinolines) nitrogen-containing compounds. Relative concentrations of each class as well as each carbon number family can be quantified by integrating their peak volumes. This study demonstrates the capability of GC x GC-NCD for speciation of nitrogen-containing compound classes.

Quinazolines/quinazolin-4-ones are significant nitrogen-containing heterocycles that exist in various natural products and synthetic scaffolds with diverse medicinal and pharmacological applications. Researchers across the globe have explored numerous synthetic strategies to develop safer and more potent quinazoline/quinazolinone analogues, particularly for combating cancer and microbial infections. This review systematically examines scholarly efforts toward understanding this scaffold's synthetic pathways and medicinal relevance, emphasizing the role of metal and non-metal catalysts and other reagents in their synthesis.

Today, weed control in agricultural systems is largely based on the use of synthetic pesticides. However, the use of these compounds is increasingly controversial among farmers and consumers, who point to their harmful properties for human health and the environment. In this context, the development of eco-friendly agricultural approaches and practices is becoming essential, and allelopathy represents a promising solution.

Nitrogen heterocyclic antibiotics (NHAs) pollution poses a significant threat to aquatic ecosystems. Ozonation (O) pretreatment is beneficial for the removal of total nitrogen (TN) in antibiotics by facilitating subsequent biological treatment. However, nitrogen transformation and bacterial community responses when treating NHAs by O-coupled biological processes remain unclear.
