Hazard Predictions
- Flammable: Reaction products may be flammable
- Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
- Toxic: Reaction products may be toxic
Carboxylic acids may be reduced by inorganic reducing agents into less oxidized species such as alcohols, aldehydes, and hydrocarbons (Morrison, R. 1973. Organic Chemistry. Allyn and Bacon, Inc., Boston, pp. 591).
