Hazard Predictions
- Explosive: Reaction products may be explosive or sensitive to shock or friction
Metal acetylides may form when strong bases and alkynes are mixed (Predicted). Many metal acetylides are explosive, especially those containing heavy metals such as copper, mercury, silver, or gold. Caution should be used before proceeding. Further research of comparable examples in the literature or very small scale, carefully controlled experiments may be needed to fully assess compatibility.
