Reaction with fluorine perchlorate

PHENE (71-43-2) Forms explosive mixture with air (flash point 12°F/— 11°C). Violent reaction with strong oxidizers, halogens. Explosive reaction with fluorine, chlorine. Reacts with ozone, forming the shock-sensitive material ozobenzene. Reacts, possibly violently, with other oxidizers such as permanganates, oxygen, perchlorates, peroxides, many fluorides. 

EXPLOSION and FIRE CONCERNS dangerous fire hazard NFPA rating Health 2, Flammability 3, Reactivity 0 explosive reaction with lanthanide perchlorates and nitrogen-fluorine compounds reacts with water, steam, and acids to produce toxic and flammable vapors incompatible with chlorosulfonic acid, nitric acid, sulfur trioxide use foam, carbon dioxide, or dry chemical for firefighting purposes. 

The final route to fluorine compounds is electrofluorination (anodic fluorination) usually in anhydrous or aqueous HF. The preparation of NF tFl3 j (x = 1, 2, 3) has already been described (p. 818). Likewise a reliable route to OF2 is the electrolysis of 80% FIF in the presence of dissolved MF (p. 638). Perchloryl fluoride has been made by electrolysing NaC104 in FIF but a simpler route (p. 879) is the direct reaction of a perchlorate with fluorosulfuric acid ... 

Explosive reaction with sodium -I-methanol or sodium methoxide + methanol. Mixtures with sodium or potassium are impact-sensitive explosives. Reacts violently with acetone + alkah (e.g., sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, or calcium hydroxide), Al, disilane, Li, Mg, methanol + alkah, nitrogen tetroxide, perchloric acid + phosphorus pentoxide, potassium-tert-butoxide, sodium methylate, NaK. Incompatible with dinitrogen tetraoxide, fluorine, metals, or trhsopropylphosphine. Nonflammable. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of CT. 

Explosive reaction with chlorosulfuric acid, hydroiodic acid, magnesium perchlorate, chromyl chloride. Forms sensitive explosive mixtures with metal halogenates (e.g., chlorates, bromates, or iodates of barium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, zinc), ammonium nitrate, mercury(1) nitrate, silver nitrate, sodium nitrate, potassium permanganate. Violent reaction or ignition with alkalies + heat, fluorine, chlorine, liquid bromine, antimony pentachloride. Reacts with hot alkalies or hydroiodic acid to form... 

A powerful oxidizer and very reactive material. It has been the cause of many industrial explosions. May explode on heating. Explosive reactions with ammonium chloride, aqua regia + ruthenium, sulfur dioxide solutions in ether or ethanol. Reacts with fluorine to form the explosive gas fluorine perchlorate. 

SAFETY PROFILE Poison by intravenous route. Moderately toxic by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. Human teratogenic effects by ingestion developmental abnormalities of the endocrine system. Experimental teratogenic and reproductive effects. Mutation data reported. Explosive reaction with charcoal + ozone, trifluoroacetyl hypofluorite, fluorine perchlorate. Violent reaction or ignition on contact with diazonium salts, diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate, bromine pentafluoride, chlorine trifluoride. Incompatible with oxidants, BrFs, FCIO, metallic salts, calomel. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of K20 and I . See also IODIDES.
