| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
A clear colorless liquid turning violet on standing, even in the absence of air, and decomposing to a black resinous mass on long standing. Denser than water and poorly soluble in water. Hence sinks in water. A violent lachrymator--low concentrations are very irritating to the eyes; high concentrations or prolonged exposure at lower concentrations may have adverse health effects. Very toxic by inhalation. Contact with the liquid causes painful burns. Used as a chemical war gas. | [Reactivity Profile]
BROMOACETONE(598-31-2) decomposes on standing. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Highly flammable. Soluble in water. | [Hazard]
Toxic by inhalation and skin contact. A
lachrymator gas, strong irritant.
| [Health Hazard]
Very powerful lachrymator and upper respiratory tract irritant. Intensely irritating to the eyes, nose, throat, and lungs. Corrosive to the skin. | [Fire Hazard]
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic fumes of Bromine | [Chemical Properties]
Colorless liquid when pure, rapidly
becomes violet even in absence of air. Soluble in ace-
tone, alcohol, benzene, and ether; slightly soluble
in water.
| [Uses]
Chemical war gas. | [Definition]
ChEBI: An alpha-bromoketone that is acetone in which one of the hydrogens is replaced by a bromine atom. A poweful lachrymator, it was formerly used as a chemical weapon. | [Purification Methods]
Stand bromoacetone over anhydrous CaCO3, filter, distil it under low vacuum, and store it with CaCO3 in the dark at 0o. [Levene Org Synth Coll Vol II 88 1943.] Violently LACHRYMATORY and skin IRRITANT. |
