Реакции воздуха и воды

DIBROMOACETONITRILE may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air and light. Slightly soluble in water.

Профиль реактивности

DIBROMOACETONITRILE is incompatible with strong acids, strong bases, strong oxidizing agents and strong reducing agents. . Nitriles may polymerize in the presence of metals and some metal compounds. They are incompatible with acids; mixing nitriles with strong oxidizing acids can lead to extremely violent reactions. Nitriles are generally incompatible with other oxidizing agents such as peroxides and epoxides. The combination of bases and nitriles can produce hydrogen cyanide. Nitriles are hydrolyzed in both aqueous acid and base to give carboxylic acids (or salts of carboxylic acids). These reactions generate heat. Peroxides convert nitriles to amides. Nitriles can react vigorously with reducing agents. Acetonitrile and propionitrile are soluble in water, but nitriles higher than propionitrile have low aqueous solubility. They are also insoluble in aqueous acids.

Пожароопасность

Literature sources indicate that DIBROMOACETONITRILE is nonflammable.

Профиль безопасности

Poison by intravenous route. Questionable carcinogen with experimental carcinogenic data. Experimental reproductive effects. Human mutation data reported. See also NITRILES and BROMIDES. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of NO,, Br-, and CN-
