Arsenicals are chemical compounds that contain arsenic.[1][2] In a military context, the term arsenical refer to toxic arsenic compounds that are used as chemical warfare agents. This include blister agents, blood agents and vomiting agents.[3][4] Historically, they were used extensively as insecticides, especially lead arsenate.
