Hazard Predictions

Hydrides react spontaneously and irreversibly with proton donors, including water and acids, to form flammable H2 gas (Rittmeyer, P., U. Wietelmann. 2002. Hydrides. In Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA. (Online); Eggeman, T. 2001. Hydrides. In Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (Online)).

Phosphoric acid and sodium tetrahydroborate may react violently (Gard, D. R. and Updated by Staff 2005. Phosphoric Acids and Phosphates. Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. (Online)).

Phosphonic and phosphinic acids can be reduced to phosphines with lithium aluminum hydride (Fee, D. C., Gard, D. R. and Yang, C.-H. 2006. Phosphorus Compounds. Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. (Online)).

Sodium hydride performs addition reactions with Lewis acids (Sullivan, E. and Wade, R. 1980. Hydrides. Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 3rd ed. John Wiley & Sons, Inc.).
