| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Colorless odorless liquid with a mild fruity odor. Flash point 140°F. | [Reactivity Profile]
ETHYL BUTYL KETONE(106-35-4) is reactive with many acids and bases liberating heat and flammable gases (e.g., H2). The amount of heat may be sufficient to start a fire in the unreacted portion. Reacts with reducing agents such as hydrides, alkali metals, and nitrides to produce flammable gas (H2) and heat. Incompatible with isocyanates, aldehydes, cyanides, peroxides, and anhydrides. May react violently with aldehydes, HNO3, HNO3 + H2O2, and HClO4. Irritating vapors and toxic gases may be formed when involved in fire [USCG, 1999]. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Flammable. | [Hazard]
Moderate fire risk. | [Health Hazard]
Short term exposure can cause irritation of eyes, nose, throat and lungs. High concentrations may cause headache, dizziness or unconsciousness. | [Potential Exposure]
Ethyl butyl ketone is used as a solvent
and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It is a solvent
for vinyl and nitrocellulose resins. It is used in food
flavoring | [Fire Hazard]
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors and toxic gases, such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, may be formed when involved in fire. | [First aid]
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any
contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek
medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the
skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately
with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.
If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,
begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if
heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical
facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and induce
vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit. | [Shipping]

Ethyl butyl ketone is a colorless liquid with a
powerful, fruity odor. | [Waste Disposal]
Dissolve or mix the material
with a combustible solvent and burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber. All federal,
state, and local environmental regulations must be observed | [Occurrence]
Reported found in apple juice, banana, peach, pear, spearmint oil, Parmesan cheese, butter, cream, lean fsh, fsh oil, roasted chicken, cooked beef, coffee, peanut oil, pecan, yellow passion fruit, plumcot, beans, plum brandy, sesame seed, mango and cooked shrimps | [Definition]
ChEBI: A dialkyl ketone with butyl and ethyl as the two alkyl groups. | [Preparation]
From n-hept-2-one by hydration. | [Production Methods]
EnBK is produced either by catalytic dehydrogenation of
3-heptanol or by hydrogenation of the mixed alcohol condensation
product of propionaldehyde and methyl ethyl
ketone. Commercial samples can be 95% pure. | [Aroma threshold values]
Detection: 7 5 to 160 ppb. | [Taste threshold values]
Taste characteristics at 50 ppm: ketonic, with a cheese-like creamy character. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]

Chemical/Physical. 3-Heptanone will not hydrolyze because it has no hydrolyzable functional
group. | [storage]
Color Code—Red: Flammability Hazard: Store ina flammable liquid storage area or approved cabinet awayfrom ignition sources and corrosive and reactive materials.Prior to working with this chemical you should be trained onits proper handling and storage. Ethyl butyl ketone must bestored to avoid contact with oxidizers, such as peroxides,chlorates, perchlorates, permanganates, and nitrates, becauseviolent reactions occur. Store in tightly closed containers ina cool, well-ventilated area away from heat. Sources of ignition, such as smoking and open flames, are prohibited whereethyl butyl ketone is used, handled, or stored in a mannerthat could create a potential fire or explosion hazard |
