Hazard Predictions

Acetyl chloride reacts violently with acids (Pohanish, Richard P.; Greene, Stanley A. (2009). Wiley Guide to Chemical Incompatibilities (3rd Edition). John Wiley & Sons. p. 20).

Thionyl chloride reacts with HBr to form thionyl bromide, a different sulfonyl halide (Weil, E. D., Sandler, S. R. and Gernon, M. 2006. Sulfur Compounds. Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology (Online)).

Strong acids are usually found as aqueous solutions, and the water presents a significant hazard. Acyl halides react vigorously with water in an exothermic reaction producing HX gas (Pohanish, Richard P.; Greene, Stanley A. (2009). Wiley Guide to Chemical Incompatibilities (3rd Edition). John Wiley & Sons. p. 20).
