Hazard Predictions

Peroxyacids form peroxyesters with acyl halides, evolving toxic acid gases (e.g., HCl) (Klenk, H., P.H. Gotz, R. Siegmeier, and W. Mayr. 2002. Peroxy Compounds, Organic. In Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA. (Online)).

Mixtures of dibenzoyl peroxide and acyl halides are impact-sensitive explosives (Sekida, O. 1974. Jap. Pat. 40:220).

Diphenyl peroxide reacts with thionyl chloride to liberate toxic SO2 and HCl gases (Hawkins, E. G. E. Organic Peroxides. New York: Van Nostrand, 1961, pp. 327).
