1320-67-8 Usage
General Description
Odorless colorless liquid. Mixes with water.
Air & Water Reactions
Oxidizes readily in air to form unstable peroxides that may explode spontaneously [Bretherick 1979. p.151-154, 164].
Reactivity Profile
methoxypropanol is a methoxy-alcohol derivative. The ether being relatively unreactive. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert alcohols to aldehydes or ketones. Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides.
Health Hazard
Low toxicity. In high concentrations may be mildly anesthetic. Direct eye contact produces slight irritation.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 1320-67-8 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 1,3,2 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 1320-67:
(6*1)+(5*3)+(4*2)+(3*0)+(2*6)+(1*7)=48
48 % 10 = 8
So 1320-67-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
