Hazard Predictions

• Flammable: Reaction products may be flammable
• Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
• Intense or explosive reaction: Reaction may be particularly intense, violent, or explosive
• Toxic: Reaction products may be toxic

Ethyl acetate can react violently if it comes into contact with either chlorosulfonic acid or fuming H2SO4 (Lewis, R.J., Sr. 1992. Sax's Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials, 8th Edition. New York: Van Nostrand Reinhold. pp. 1570).

Esters may release CO2 gas upon exposure to oxidizing acids, through acid-catalyzed hydrolysis (Morrison, R. 1973. Organic Chemistry. Allyn and Bacon, Inc., Boston, pp. 680), followed by decarboxylation through oxidation, yielding both CO and CO2 gases (Riemenschneider, W. 2002. Oxalic Acid. In Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA. (Online)).

Acidic compounds can catalyze exothermic decomposition of trimethyl phosphate, with evolution of flammable hydrocarbon gases, potentially causing overpressurization (Association of British Chemical Manufacturers. 1953. Quarterly Safety Summary 25:3).

Reaction of nitric acid and disodium phenyl orthophosphate may produce explosive products (Urben, P.G. 1995. Bretherick's Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, 5th Edition. Oxford: Butterworth-Heinemann. pp. 1478.).

Strong acids can catalyze the hydrolysis of esters, resulting in the formation of carboxylic acids and alcohols. Alcohols that have fewer than 5 carbon atoms, such as methanol, are volatile flammable liquids (Loudon, Marc. 2002. Organic Chemistry. 4th ed. New York: Oxford University Press. p. 952-953).
