General Description
Pale yellow crystals or off-white chunky solid.
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
Acidic organic salt of an amine. Materials in this group are generally soluble in water. The resulting solutions contain moderate concentrations of hydrogen ions and have pH's of less than 7.0. They react as acids to neutralize bases. These neutralizations generate heat, but less or far less than is generated by neutralization of inorganic acids, inorganic oxoacids, and carboxylic acid. They usually do not react as either oxidizing agents or reducing agents but such behavior is not impossible. Many of these compounds catalyze organic reactions.
Fire Hazard
Flash point data for 2-Phenylaniline hydrochloride. are not available; however, 2-Phenylaniline hydrochloride. is probably combustible.
Safety Profile
Questionable carcinogen withexperimental carcinogenic data. Mutation data reported.When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes ofNOx and HCl.
