Hazard Predictions

NH3 can hydrolyze sulfinyl chloride to toxic HCl and SO2 gases (Urben, P.G. 1995. Bretherick's Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, 5th Edition. Oxford: Butterworth-Heinemann. pp. 1325.).

NH3 forms explosive nitrogen trihalides with halogens, including bromine (Mellor, J.W. 1967. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 8, Supp. 2, p. 417. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.), chlorine (Mellor. 1941. Volume 2. pp. 95; Mellor. 1940. Volume 8. pp. 99, 288, 313, 607.), and iodine (Mellor. 1940. Volume 8. pp. 605; Mellor. 1967. Volume 8, Supplemental 2.2. pp. 416.).

NH3 reacts explosively with ClF3 (Mellor, J.W. 1956. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 2, Supp. 1, p. 157. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.).

NH3 ignites on contact with F2 (Mellor, J.W. 1940. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 8, p. 216. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.).

NH3 reacts violently with boron halides (The Chemical Elements and their Compounds, Sidgwick, N.V., Oxford, Oxford University Press, 1950, pp. 380.).

NH3 may hydrolyze sulfinyl halides to form toxic HF, HBr, and HI gases in addition to HCl and SO2 gases (Predicted by comparison to similar reactions).
