Seleninyl chloride explodes on contact with potassium (Mellor, J. 1947. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 10, p. 908. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.).
Potassium forms shock-sensitive explosive mixtures with oxalyl dibromide and oxalyl dichloride (Staudinger, H. 1922. Z. Agnew. Chem. 35:657; Staudinger, H.; Endle, R. 1913, Berichte der Deutschen Chemischen Gesellschaft, 46, p. 1426-37).
Lithium forms potentially explosive mixtures with sulfonyl chloride and thionyl chloride (Subbarao, S. et al. 1988. Proc. Electrochem. Soc. 88-6, p. 187; Butakov, A.A. et al. 1992. Journal of Power Sources. 39(3), p. 375).
Sodium forms shock-sensitive explosive mixtures with sulfinyl fluoride (Leleu, J. 1975. "Les Reactions Chimique Dangereuse", Cahiers de Notes Documetaires, (79), p. 270).
Sodium reacts explosively with phosphoryl chloride (phosphorus oxychloride) when heated (Eggeman, T. and Updated by Staff 2007. Sodium and Sodium Alloys. Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. (Online)).
Sodium reacts violently with organic halides (Eggeman, T. and Updated by Staff 2007. Sodium and Sodium Alloys. Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. (Online)).
