General Description
Colorless liquid. (USCG, 1999)
Hazards
Reactivity Alerts
none
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Fire Hazard
No information available.
Health Hazard
May be harmful by inhalation, ingestion, or skin absorption. May cause irritation. (USCG, 1999)
Reactivity Profile
Vigorous reactions, sometimes amounting to explosions, can result from the contact between aromatic hydrocarbons, such as TRIDECYLBENZENE, and strong oxidizing agents. They can react exothermically with bases and with diazo compounds. Substitution at the benzene nucleus occurs by halogenation (acid catalyst), nitration, sulfonation, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction.
Belongs to the Following Reactive Group(s)
