PHORBOL 12-MYRISTATE 13-ACETATE 4-O-METHYL ETHER, 4BETA may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air, light and ambient temperatures. PHORBOL 12-MYRISTATE 13-ACETATE 4-O-METHYL ETHER, 4BETA will hydrolyze under alkaline or acidic conditions.
PHORBOL 12-MYRISTATE 13-ACETATE 4-O-METHYL ETHER, 4BETA is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.
The flash point of PHORBOL 12-MYRISTATE 13-ACETATE 4-O-METHYL ETHER, 4BETA has not been determined, but PHORBOL 12-MYRISTATE 13-ACETATE 4-O-METHYL ETHER, 4BETA is probably combustible.
