Phenbenzamine hydrochloride Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

beige crystalline powder

Definition

ChEBI: Phenbenzamine hydrochloride is an organic molecular entity.

General Description

Beige crystals. pH (25 mg/ml solution) 5.72.

Air & Water Reactions

Slightly water soluble. Aqueous solutions are weakly acidic.

Reactivity Profile

Acidic organic/inorganic salts, such as Phenbenzamine hydrochloride, are generally soluble in water. The resulting solutions contain moderate concentrations of hydrogen ions and have pH's of less than 7.0. They react as acids to neutralize bases. These neutralizations generate heat, but less or far less than is generated by neutralization of inorganic acids, inorganic oxoacids, and carboxylic acid. They usually do not react as either oxidizing agents or reducing agents but such behavior is not impossible. Many of these compounds catalyze organic reactions.

Health Hazard

SYMPTOMS: On ingestion, Phenbenzamine hydrochloride will cause drowsiness and general central nervous system effects.

Fire Hazard

The flash point of Phenbenzamine hydrochloride has not been determined. Phenbenzamine hydrochloride is probably combustible.

Safety Profile

Poison by ingestion, intravenous, and subcutaneous routes. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of HCl and NOx. Used as an antihistaminic agent.
