| NITROCYCLOHEXANE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Colorless to dark yellow liquid | | Chemical Properties | Nitrocyclohexane is a highly flammable, colorless
liquid. | | Definition | ChEBI: A C-nitro compound that is cyclohexane in which a single hydrogen is replaced by a nitro group. | | Synthesis Reference(s) | Journal of the American Chemical Society, 75, p. 4047, 1953 DOI: 10.1021/ja01112a049Tetrahedron, 46, p. 7443, 1990 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4020(01)89059-1Tetrahedron Letters, 21, p. 1117, 1980 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4039(01)83928-9 | | General Description | Colorless liquid. | | Air & Water Reactions | Highly Flammable | | Reactivity Profile | Nitroalkanes, such as NITROCYCLOHEXANE, 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. Nitroalkanes are milder oxidizing agents, but still react violently with reducing agents at higher temperature and pressures. Nitroalkanes react with inorganic bases to form explosive salts. The presence of metal oxides increases the thermal sensitivity of nitroalkanes. Nitroalkanes with more than one nitro group are generally explosive. Nitroalkanes are insoluble in water. Flammable/combustible material. May be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. | | Potential Exposure | Used in organic synthesis. | | Shipping | UN3382 Toxic by inhalation liquid, n.o.s. with
an LC50 lower than or equal to 1000 ml/m3 and saturated
vapor concentration ≥10 LC50, Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels:
6.1 Technical Name Required, Inhalation Hazard Zone B. | | Incompatibilities | A nitro compound; a fire and explosive
hazard. May form explosive mixture with air.
Nitrocyclohexane, a nitroalkane, is a strong oxidizing agents.
If mixed with reducing agents, including hydrides, sulfides
and nitrides, they may begin a vigorous reaction that culminates
in a detonation. Nitroalkanes are milder oxidizing
agents, but still react violently with reducing agents at higher
temperature and pressures. Nitroalkanes react with inorganic
bases to form explosive salts. The presence of metal oxides
increases the thermal sensitivity of nitroalkanes. Nitroalkanes
with more than one nitro group are generally explosive.
Incompatible with alkalis, and metal oxides. This chemical is
highly reactive and may be heat-and shock-sensitive. | | Waste Disposal | Dissolve or mix the material
with a combustible solvent and burn in a chemical
incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber.
All federal, state, and local environmental regulations must
be observed. |
