Yellow needles. Free soluble in alcohol.
9-AMINOACRIDINE is a moderately strong base. Neutralizes acids to form salts plus water in exothermic reactions. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.
Flash point data for 9-AMINOACRIDINE are not available; however, 9-AMINOACRIDINE is probably combustible.
It crystallises from EtOH or acetone and sublimes at 170-180o/0.04mm [Albert & Ritchie Org Synth Coll Vol III 53 1955, for hydrochloride, see below]. [Beilstein 22 H 463, 21 II 280, 21 III/IV 4174.]
