Hazard Predictions
- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
Sulfites are weak reducing agents. When they are combined with strong oxidizers such as organonitrates, hazardous redox reactions may occur (Predicted). 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.
