- Toxic: Reaction products may be toxic
HCl can react violently with F2C=CH2 (vinylidine difluoride), even at -40 C, causing rapid decomposition and pressurization, including evolution of highly toxic HF gas. The reaction is catalyzed by AlCl3, which is commonly found as an impurity in HCl solution (Jensen, J.H. 1981. Chemical and Engineering News 59(14): 3, 59.). In this case, reactivity is due to vinyl group and not the halogenated part of molecule.
Halogenated organics may release toxic HF, HCl, HBr, and/or HI gases upon exposure to acids (predicted).
