Dinitolmide Usage And Synthesis

Description

Dinitolmide is a yellowish crystalline substance. Molecular weight= 225.18; Freezing/Meltingpoint = 177.2℃. Very slightly soluble in water.

Chemical Properties

Yellowish solid. Very slightly soluble in water; soluble in acetone, acetonitrile, dioxane, and dimethylformamide.

Uses

Dinitolmide may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in animal tissues poultry, livestock, and aquatic tissues using chromatography techniques.

Uses

A fodder additive for poultry used to prevent coccidiosis infections. Antiprotozoan drug.

Uses

antiprotozoal

Definition

ChEBI: Dinitolmide is a dinitrotoluene.

General Description

Yellowish, crystalline solid. Mp: 177°C. Very slightly soluble in water. Soluble in acetone, acetonitrile, and dimethylformamide. Used as an anti-parasite drug for poultry. Store in a cool, ventilated place, away from acute fire hazards and easily oxidized materials.

Reactivity Profile

Dinitolmide reacts as an oxidizing agent. Has been known on at least one occasion to explode destructively. Incompatible with easily oxidized materials. Emits toxic NOx fumes if heated to decomposition.

Hazard

Liver damage

Safety Profile

Poison by intravenous route. Moderately toxic by ingestion. Mutation data reported. A strong exothermic reaction above 248OC has caused industrial explosions. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. See also NITRO COMPOUNDS of AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS.

Potential Exposure

AgriculturalChemical; Mutagen. Those involved in the manufacture,formulation, and application of this veterinary coccidiostat,an antiparasite medicine used in poultry.

First aid

If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove anycontact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR ifheart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medicalfacility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and inducevomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.Note to physician: Treat for methemoglobinemia.Spectrophotometry may be required for precise determination of levels of methemoglobinemia in urine

storage

Color Code—Blue: Health Hazard/Poison: Storein a secure poison location. Prior to working with dinitolmide you should be trained on its proper handling and storage. Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, wellventilated area away from alkalies and heat.

Incompatibilities

A weak oxidizing agent, but hightemperatures and pressures may cause violent reactions.Heat can cause a violent exothermic reaction above248℃. Contact with alkalies may form explosive metalsalts.
