Hazard Predictions
- Potentially hazardous: May be hazardous but unknown
No direct evidence was found for a hazardous reaction between these reactive groups. Because of the nature of the members of the Weak Oxidizing Agents group we would not expect reaction kinetics to yield hazardous conditions. We urge chemists to perform testing to ensure that hazards do not occur under conditions appropriate to the scenario.
Ethyl acetate reacts vigorously with oxidizers (Lewis, R.J., Sr. 1992. Sax's Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials, 8th Edition. New York: Van Nostrand Reinhold. pp. 1570.), and esters have an undefined incompatibility with nitrates (Lewis 1547).
