May not be compatible with nitrates. Moisture may cause hydrolysis or other forms of decompo sition; forming a strong acid. Temperatures above 250℃ can cause decomposition. Methyl ester: Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is suffi ciently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solu tions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.

White crystalline solid.

Containers must be disposed of properly by following package label directions or by contacting your local or federal environmental control agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office. Dissolve or mix the material with a combustible solvent and burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an after burner and scrubber. In accordance with 40CFR165, follow recommendations for the disposal of pesticides and pesti cide containers.

Herbicide.

Fluroxypyr-meptyl exhibits optical isomerism due to the presence of a chiral centre in the meptyl ester moiety. While the fluroxypyr acid itself is not isomeric, the meptyl group, a branched alkyl chain attached via an ester linkage, contains a stereogenic carbon that gives rise to two enantiomers.
