D.C.W. along with K.P.S. and C.L.H. wrote the manuscript with contributions from all authors. D.C.W. along with K.P.S. and V.G.S. designed and carried out the majority of simulant experiments. Y.V.G. was responsible for a number of the stopped-flow studies. W.O.G. and A.B. conducted the live agent HD studies. Y.T. and A.I.F. performed the XAFS experiments. R.M.S. carried out a number of simulant experiments. C.L.H., Y.V.G., A.I.F., A.L.K., D.G.M., C.J.K. and W.O.G. provided critical guidance throughout the project. C.L.H. supervised the research.
