Copper, ethanedioato(2-)-.kappa.O1,.kappa.O2-, hydrate (2:1)

Cupric oxalate is a bluish-white, odorless powder.

Copper Oxalate is an coordination compound used to engineer copper carbonate hydroxide photocatalysts.

Used as a catalyst for organic reactions and in seed treatment as a repellent for birds and rodents.

UN2775, Copper based pesticides, solid, toxic, Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials.

Explosive materials are formed on contact with acetylene gas, ammonia, caustic solutions; sodium hypobromite, nitromethane. Slight heating can cause a weak explosion. Cupric oxalate dissolves in aqueous ammonia and reacts as an acid to neutralize other bases as well. Can serve as a reducing agent in reactions that generate carbon dioxide. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides.
