Safety
Practically no toxicity except that it may asphyxiate. Highly dangerous fire and severe explosion hazard when exposed to heat, flame, or oxidizers. Flammable or explosive when mixed with air, O2, chlorine. To fight fire, stop flow of gas.
Explodes on contact with bromine trifluoride; chlorine trifluoride; fluorine; hydrogen peroxide + catalysts; acetylene + ethylene. Explodes when heated with calcium carbonate + magnesium; 3,4-dichloronitrobenzene + catalysts; vegetable oils + catalysts; ethylene + nickel catalysts; difluorodiazene (above 90°C); 2-nitroanisole (above 250°C/34 bar + 12% catalyst); copper(II) oxide; nitryl fluoride (above 200°C); polycarbon monofluoride (above 500°C).
Forms sensitive explosive mixtures with bromine; chlorine; iodine heptafluoride (heat- or spark-sensitive); chlorine dioxide; dichlorine oxide; iodine heptafluoride (heat- or spark-sensitive); dinitrogen oxide; dinitrogen tetraoxide; oxygen (gas); 1,1,1-trisazidomethylethane + palladium catalyst. Mixtures with liquid nitrogen react with heat to form an explosive product.
Violent reaction or ignition with air + catalysts (platinum and similar metals containing adsorbed oxygen or hydrogen); bromine; iodine; dioxane + nickel; lithium; nitrogen trifluoride; oxygen difluoride; palladium + isopropyl alcohol; 3-methyl-2-penten-4-yn-1-ol; lead trifluoride; bromine fluoride (ignition on contact); nickel + oxygen; fluorine perchlorate (ignition on contact); xenon hexafluoride (violent reaction); nitrogen oxide + oxygen (ignition above 360°C); palladium powder + 2-propanol + air (spontaneous ignition); platinum catalyst; polycarbon monofluoride (ignition above 400°C).
Vigorous exothermic reaction with benzene + Raney nickel catalyst; metals (e.g., lithium; calcium; barium; strontium; sodium; potassium; above 300°C); palladium(II) oxide; palladium trifluoride; 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)nitromethane + nickel catalyst.
