Propionic Anhydride (CAS: 123-62-6), colorless liquid with irritating odor. Strong, pungent, unpleasant odor. Soluble in methanol, ethanol, ether, chloroform and alkali, decomposes in water.
Propionic Anhydride is mainly used as esterifying agent and nitration or sulfonation of dehydrating agent, also used in the preparation of alkyd resin, dyes and pharmaceuticals; and Propionic Anhydride is widely used as a reagent in organic synthesis.
Propionic Anhydride is used as a propionylating agent in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, fragrances and special esters, in the pharmaceutical industry, it is used to produce horosamycin propionate (antibiotics), testosterone propionate (male hormone deficiency), oxymethandrosterone propionate (anticancer drug), and chlordimethasone (adrenal cortex). Hormones) and betamethasone dipropionate (adrenal cortex hormone), etc.
Decomposes exothermically in water to form a corrosive solution of propionic acid [Merck, 11th ed. 1989].
Propionic Anhydride (CAS: 123-62-6) reacts exothermically with water. The reactions are sometimes slow, but can become violent when local heating accelerates their rate. Acids accelerate the reaction with water. Incompatible with acids, strong oxidizing agents, alcohols, amines, and bases.
Inhalation causes irritation of eyes and respiratory tract. Contact with liquid causes burns of eyes and skin. Ingestion causes burns of mouth and stomach.
Combustible material: may burn but does not ignite readily. Substance will react with water (some violently) releasing flammable, toxic or corrosive gases and runoff. When heated, vapors may form explosive mixtures with air: indoors, outdoors and sewers explosion hazards. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Containers may explode when heated or if contaminated with water.
Moderately toxic by ingestion. Mildly toxic by skin contact. A corrosive irritant to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame; can react with oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use CO2, dry chemical. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. Used as an esterifyng agent and dehydrating agent. See also ANHYDRIDES.
Propionic Anhydride (CAS: 123-62-6) is strong smelling and corrosive, and will cause burns on contact with skin. Vapour can burn eyes and lungs.
UN2496 Propionic Anhydride, Hazard class: 8; Labels: 8-Corrosive material.
Vapors may form explosive mixture with air. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, perox- ides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluo- rine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides, reducing agents; alcohols and metals. Contact with water forms heat 1 flammable propionic acid. Compounds of the carboxyl group react with all bases, both inorganic and organic (i.e., amines) releasing substantial heat, water and a salt that may be harmful. Incompatible with arsenic compounds (releases hydrogen cyanide gas), diazo compounds, dithiocarbamates, isocyanates, mercap- tans, nitrides, and sulfides (releasing heat, toxic and possibly flammable gases), thiosulfates and dithionites (releasing hydrogen sulfate and oxides of sulfur).
