chemical property
Diethyl sulfate undergoes severe decomposition at high temperatures or in contact with oxidants, and may even cause explosions. It is sensitive to humid air and easily decomposes into corrosive liquid sulfuric acid
purpose
Diethyl sulfate is an important organic synthesis reagent, mainly used for:
Medicine: Used for synthesizing various pharmaceutical intermediates and drugs
Dyes: used as ethylation reagents in dye production
Pesticides: Used for the synthesis of pesticides
Other fine chemical products: used for synthesizing other fine chemical products
security information
Diethyl sulfate has high toxicity and may cause harm to the human body through inhalation, skin contact, or oral ingestion. Inhalation may cause symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, and skin contact may cause irritation and blisters. Therefore, special attention should be paid to safety measures during use and storage, keeping away from sources of fire and heat, keeping the container sealed, and equipping it with corresponding fire-fighting equipment.
