Just passing by; I’m here to ask for help. Does anyone have the MSDS for hydroxyacetonitrile? Thanks in advance
【Chinese Name】Hydroxyacetonitrile; Formaldehyde cyanohydrin ; Cyanomethanol 【English name】 glycolonitrile; glycolic nitrile 【Structure or molecular formula】 Molecular structure: The C and N atoms of the triple bond form a σ bond using sp hybridized orbitals. The other C and O atoms form σ bonds using sp3 hybridized orbitals. 【Relative molecular weight or atomic weight】57.05 【Density】1.100 【Melting point (°C)] -67 【Boiling point (°C)] 183 【Flash point (°C)] 56 【Refractive index】1.4117(19°C) 【Properties】Colorless oily liquid. 【Solubility】 Soluble in ethanol and ether. 【Use】 Used as a raw material for organic synthesis. 【Preparation or Source】 It is obtained by reacting formaldehyde with hydrocyanic acid in the presence of a catalyst, or via gas-phase catalysis of ethanol and ammonia. 【Other】 Prone to polymerization. Structurally, during an Sn2 substitution reaction, the cyano group located adjacent to the hydroxyl group may exert a vicinal effect
Chinese name: Ethanol nitrile; Hydroxyethanol ; Hydroxyacetonitrile ; Formaldehyde cyanohydrin ; Cyanomethanol English name: glycolonitrile; glycolic nitrile CAS registry number: Molecular formula: C2H2NO Molecular weight: 57.05 Density: 1.100 Melting point: -67 Boiling point: 183 Flash point: 56 Vapor pressure: Viscosity: Refractive index: 1.4117 (19°C) Toxicity LD50 (mg/kg): Physical properties: Colorless oily liquid. Solubility: Soluble in ethanol and ether. Use: Used as a raw material for organic synthesis. Preparation or source: It is obtained by reacting formaldehyde with hydrocyanic acid in the presence of a catalyst, or via gas-phase catalysis of ethanol and ammonia. That’s all I could find!
I also want to know: the lower explosion limit
Do you have any data on the reaction heat for hydroxyacetonitrile? I’m referring to the reaction heat resulting from the reaction between hydrocyanic acid and formaldehyde
