Dihexylamine is
used in organic syntheses.
Di-n-hexylamine is used in organic synthesis and involved in the preparation of succinic acid.
DI-N-HEXYLAMINE may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air. Insoluble in water.
DI-N-HEXYLAMINE 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.
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: DI-N-HEXYLAMINE is readily absorbed through the skin.
DI-N-HEXYLAMINE is combustible.
poison by ingestion,
skin contact, and intravenous routes. A skin
exposed to heat or flame; can react with
oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use CO2,
dry chemical. When heated to
decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. See also AMINES.
