1,4-DICHLOROBUTANE-D8 Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

1,4-Dichlorobutane-d8 (CAS# 83547-96-0) is a useful isotopically labeled research compound.

General Description

Colorless liquid. May have sweet smell. Insoluble in water.

Air & Water Reactions

Highly flammable. Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

Halogenated aliphatic compounds, such as 1,4-DICHLOROBUTANE-D8, are moderately or very reactive. Reactivity generally decreases with increased degree of substitution of halogen for hydrogen atoms. Materials in this group may be incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Also, they may be incompatible with many amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides. 1,4-DICHLOROBUTANE-D8 can react vigorously with oxidizing materials.

Health Hazard

Inhalation or contact with material may irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution.
