Peroxybenzoic acid reacts violently with reducing agents (Lewis, R.J., Sr. 1992. Sax's Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials, 8th Edition. New York: Van Nostrand Reinhold. pp. 2709).
Organic peroxides may liberate toxic HX gases upon exposure to halogen-bearing inorganic reducing agents (Predicted).
Potential Gas Byproducts
