ChEBI: 2-(1-Aziridinyl)ethanol is a tertiary amine.
Clear colorless to yellow liquid.
Soluble in water. Hydrolyzes to give diethanolamine .
1-AZIRIDINEETHANOL is an amino alcohol. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids in exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.
Irritant to skin and eyes.
1-AZIRIDINEETHANOL is combustible.
Poison by ingestion,
skin contact, and intravenous routes. A sktn
and eye irritant. Questionable carcinogen
with experimental neoplastigenic data.
