Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
colorless to amber solution | [Uses]
A reagent used for the GC analysis of ritalinic acid. | [Potential Exposure]
Used as a catalyst. | [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.
Boron Trifluoride Etherates 465
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. If victim is conscious, administer water
or milk. Do not induce vomiting. 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]
Diethyl: UN2604 Boron trifluoride diethyl
etherate, Hazard class: 8; Labels: 8—Corrosive material,
3—Flammable liquid. Dimethyl: UN2965 Boron trifluoride
dimethyl etherate, Hazard class: 4.3; Labels: 4.3—
Dangerous when wet, 8—Corrosive material, 3—
Flammable liquid. | [Incompatibilities]
Reacts with air forming corrosive hydrogen
fluoride vapors. Incompatible with oxidizers (may
cause fire and explosion), water, steam or heat, forming
corrosive and flammable vapors. Peroxide containing etherate
reacts explosively with aluminum lithium hydride,
magnesium tetrahydroaluminate. Mixtures with phenol
react explosively with 1,3-butadiene. Presumed to form
explosive peroxides. | [General Description]
Boron trifluoride-methanol (BF-M) is an esterification reagent. BF-M is a powerful acidic catalyst for the esterification of the fatty acids. It easily cleaves acetylated dyes resulting in free amino groups. BF-M catalyzed trans esterification of vegetable oils forms biodiesel. |
