化学的特性

Pale Yellow Solid

天然物の起源

Has apparently not been reported to occur in nature.

使用

Musk Xylene is a synthetic nitro musk. Musk Xylene is used in fragrances and soap to mimic natural musk. Studies suggest that formation of Xylene Musk adducts of rainbow trout Hb can be potentially us ed as biomarker of exposure.

製造方法

By nitration of the corresponding benzene derivative (Bedoukian, 1967).

定義

ChEBI: A C-nitro compound that is m-xylene bearing three nitro substituents at positions 2, 4 and 6 as well as a tert-butyl group at position 5.

一般的な説明

Musk xylene is a white to light-colored crystalline solid. Musk xylene is insoluble in water and denser than water. Hence sinks in water. Contact may irritate skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. May be toxic by ingestion. Used to make other chemicals.

空気と水の反応

Highly flammable. Insoluble in water.

反応プロフィール

Self-decomposition or self-ignition may be triggered by heat, chemical reaction, friction or impact.

健康ハザード

Inhalation or contact with vapors, substance or decomposition products may cause severe injury or death. May produce irritating, toxic and/or corrosive gases. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution.

火災危険

Self-decomposition or self-ignition may be triggered by heat, chemical reaction, friction or impact. May be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Some may decompose explosively when heated or involved in a fire. May burn violently. Decomposition may be self-accelerating and produce large amounts of gases. Vapors or dust may form explosive mixtures with air.

安全性プロファイル

Low oral toxicity. A human skin irritant. A flammable solid. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. See also NITRO COMPOUNDS of AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS.
