| | 5-NITROACENAPHTHENE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | yellow powder | | Chemical Properties | 5-Nitroacenaphthene is a yellow crystalline
solid. | | Uses | 5-Nitroacenaphthene is a derivative of acenaphthene, a polycyclic hydrocarbon that has potential to act as polyploidizing agents in plants. | | Definition | ChEBI: 5-Nitroacenaphthene is a nitronaphthalene. | | General Description | Yellow powder. | | Air & Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. | | Reactivity Profile | Aromatic nitro compounds, such as 5-NITROACENAPHTHENE, range from slight to strong oxidizing agents. If mixed with reducing agents, including hydrides, sulfides and nitrides, they may begin a vigorous reaction that culminates in a detonation. The aromatic nitro compounds may explode in the presence of a base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide even in the presence of water or organic solvents. The explosive tendencies of aromatic nitro compounds are increased by the presence of multiple nitro groups. | | Health Hazard | ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: There is clear evidence that 5-NITROACENAPHTHENE is an animal carcinogen. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. | | Fire Hazard | Flash point data for 5-NITROACENAPHTHENE are not available. 5-NITROACENAPHTHENE is probably combustible. | | Safety Profile | Confirmed carcinogen
with experimental carcinogenic and
neoplastigenic data. Mutation data reported.
When heated to decomposition it emits
toxic fumes of NOx. See also NITRO

HYDROCARBONS. | | Potential Exposure | Used in organic synthesis. | | Shipping | UN2811 Toxic solids, organic, n.o.s., Hazard
Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials, Technical
Name Required. | | Incompatibilities | 5-Nitroacenaphthene is an aromatic
hydrocarbon (nitro compound). It may be flammable or
explosive. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates,
peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine,
fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep
away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides; alkalis may increases the thermal sensitivity
of this chemical. | | Waste Disposal | Careful incineration in an
incinerator equipped with afterburner and scrubbers. |
