| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
off-white to yellow-beige crystals or powder | [Uses]
As an oxazole derivative used as an antibiotic, 2-Oxazolidone is also used in the preparation of compounds with antitumor activity and as a metabolite of Furazolidone (F864100).
| [Definition]
ChEBI: An oxazolidinone that is 1,3-oxazolidine with an oxo substituent at position 2. | [Safety Profile]
Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. | [Purification Methods]
Crystallise it from *benzene, dichloroethane, CHCl3 or EtOH. It is a cyclic urethane, and as such it is not very stable. [Katritzky et al. J Chem Soc Perkin II 145 1990, Beilstein 27 H 135, 27 II 259, 27 III/IV 2516.] |
