Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Potential Exposure]
Cupric acetate is used as a fungicide, as a catalyst for organic reactions; in textile dyeing and as a pigment for ceramics. | [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. Medical observation is recommended for 24 to 48 hours after breathing overexposure, as pulmonary edema may be delayed. As first aid for pulmonary edema, a doctor or authorized paramedic may consider administering a drug or other inhalation therapy. | [Shipping]

Forms explosive materials with acetylene gas, ammonia, caustic solutions; sodium hypobromite; notromethane. Keep away from chemically active metals; strong acids; nitrates. Decomposes above 240C forming acetic acid fumes | [Chemical Properties]
Cupric acetate is a greenish Blue powder or small crystals. | [Chemical Properties]
Dark green small crystal with odour of acetic acid | [Waste Disposal]
Copper-containing soluble wastes can be concentrated through the use of ion exchange, reverse osmosis, or evaporators to the point where copper can be electrolytically removed and sent to a reclaiming firm. If recovery is not feasible, the copper can be precipitated through the use of caustics and the sludge deposited in a chemical waste landfill. | [General Description]
Copper (II) acetate monohydrate is soluble in water and slightly soluble in methanol, diethylether and acetone. It can be synthesized by reacting acetic acid with copper (II) carbonate or copper(II) hydroxide or copper (II) oxide. Large scale commercial production is undertaken by placing copper metal in the presence of air and refluxing acetic acid. As a transition metal acetate, it can be used to form oxide nanoparticles by sonochemical methods. | [reaction suitability]
reagent type: catalyst core: copper | [Purification Methods]
Recystallise it twice from warm dilute acetic acid solutions (5mL/g) by cooling. [Beilstein 2 IV 111.] |
Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Physical Properties]
Bluish-green fine powder; hygroscopic. The monohydrate is dimeric; density 1.88 g/cm3; melts at 115°C; decomposes at 240°C; soluble in water and ethanol; and slightly soluble in ether.
| [Uses]
Copper(II) acetate is used as a pigment for ceramics; in the manufacture of Paris green; in textile dyeing; as a fungicide; and as a catalyst. Copper(II) acetate monohydrate is used in DNA extraction in biochemical applications. It is also used as a catalyst or oxidizing agent in organic syntheses. Catalyst for activation of alcohols as greener alkylating reagents. Copper-Catalyzed Aerobic Oxidation of Amines to Imines under Neat Conditions with Low Catalyst Loading. | [Preparation]
Copper(II) acetate is prepared by treatment of copper(II) oxide, CuO, or copper(II) carbonate, CuCO3, with acetic acid, followed by crystallization:
CuO + 2CH3COOH → (CH3COO)2Cu + H2O
| [Toxicity]
Copper(II) acetate is moderately toxic by ingestion and possibly other routes of administration.
