colorless liquid. Insoluble in water. Soluble in ethanol, ether. Its vapor and air to form an explosive mixture, fire, high heat caused by combustion explosion. A strong reaction with an oxidizing agent can occur.
prepared by co-heating n-butanol with concentrated hydrochloric acid in the presence of anhydrous zinc chloride.
used as a solvent and as a butylation reagent in organic synthesis. It can also be used in the manufacture of butyl cellulose, insect repellent, celluloid, phenylbutazone and the like.
rat oral LDso: 2670mg/kg. Inhalation of higher concentrations can cause dizziness, drowsiness and even Coma. Mild eye and skin irritation. Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat source. Protection from direct sunlight. Keep the container sealed. Should be stored separately from the oxidant.
