Hazard Predictions

Reactions between ketones and organic hydroperoxides can produce explosive peroxy compounds (Sanchez, J., T.N. Meyers. 2000. Peroxides and Peroxide Compounds, Organic Peroxides. In Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. John Wiley & Sons. (Online); Lenga, R.E., ed. 1988. Sigma Aldrich Library of Chemical Safety Data, 2nd Edition. Sigma Aldrich. pp. 2726).

Acetone may react violently with organic peroxides (Naponen, A. 1977. Chemical and Engineering News 55(8):5).
