Hazard Predictions

Both acetone and methyl ethyl ketone ignite on contact with potassium tert-butoxide (Manwaring, R. et al. Chemistry and Industry, 172.; Lewis, R.J., Sr. 1992. Sax's Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials, 8th Edition. New York: Van Nostrand Reinhold. pp. 23, 2319).

Acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, acetophenone, and cyclohexanone have undefined incompatibilities with strong bases (Lenga, R.E., ed. 1988. Sigma Aldrich Library of Chemical Safety Data, 2nd Edition. Sigma Aldrich. pp. 20, 24, 605, 965).
