N-Isopropylaniline is a microbial metabolite of Propachlor (P757300), an acylanilide herbicide that is used to maintain crop protection from weeds. Propachlor is also known to induce Glutathione (G597951)-dependent cytotoxicity and sister chromatid exchanges in human cells.
N-isopropylaniline is a clear brown liquid. (NTP, 1992)
N-Isopropylaniline neutralizes 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 may be generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.
Toxic by inhalation and skin absorption.
N-isopropylaniline absorption
causes methemoglobinemia in animals, and the
same effect is expected in humans.
N-Isopropylaniline is combustible.
