Chemical Properties

YELLOW TO ORANGE POWDER

Uses

2-Bromo-4,6-dinitroaniline was used as a model chemical in the inter-laboratory evaluation of the bioluminescent Salmonella reverse mutation assay for detecting mutagenicity.

General Description

Bright yellow powder.

Air & Water Reactions

2-Bromo-4,6-dinitroaniline may be sensitive to exposure to air . Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

A halogenated and nitrated amine. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.

Fire Hazard

Flash point data for 2-Bromo-4,6-dinitroaniline are not available, but 2-Bromo-4,6-dinitroaniline is probably combustible.
