Hazard Predictions
- Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
m-Nitrobenzaldehyde releases N2 gas upon exposure to diazomethane. The nitro portion of the molecule likely initiates the oxidation process (Zollinger, Heinrich. Azo and Diazo Chemistry. New York: Interscience Publishers, Inc. 1961. pp. 72).
Hydrazine reduces nitroaromatics to the corresponding amines (Kammermeier, B. 2000. Reduction. Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. (Online)).
