| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
A clear colorless liquid. Flash point 126°F. Less dense than water and only slightly soluble in water. Hence floats on water. Vapors heavier than air. Density 6.8 lb/gal. Used as a synthetic flavoring and in perfumes. | [Reactivity Profile]
AMYL METHYL KETONE(110-43-0) reacts exothermically with many acids and bases to produce flammable gases (e.g., H2). The heat may be sufficient to start a fire in the unreacted portion. Reacts with reducing agents such as hydrides, alkali metals, and nitrides to produce flammable gas and heat. Incompatible with isocyanates, aldehydes, cyanides, peroxides, and anhydrides. Incompatible with many oxidizing agents including nitric acid, nitric acid/hydrogen peroxide mixture, and perchloric acid. May form peroxides [USCG, 1999]. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Flammable. Slightly soluble in water. | [Hazard]
Moderate fire risk. Toxic by inhalation, skin
and eye irritant, narcotic in high concentration. | [Health Hazard]
Inhalation can cause headache, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, stupor, drowsiness, disturbed vision, and unconsciousness. Skin contact can cause moderate irritation, defatting, and dermatitis. Ingestion may cause irritation of lips and mouth, gastro-intestinal irritation, nausea, diarrhea, drowsiness, loss of consciousness, weak and rapid pulse, cold-pale complexion. | [First aid]
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any
contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek
medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the
skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.
If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,
begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if
heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical
facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and induce
vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.

Methyl amyl ketone forms an explosive
mixture with air in the range 1.1% [at 66°C
(150.8°F)] to 7.9% [at 121°C (249.8°F)] by
volume. It can react explosively with strong
acids, alkalies, and oxidizing agents. | [Flammability and Explosibility]
Flammable | [Potential Exposure]
Primary Irritant. Methyl amyl ketone is used as a solvent in metal roll coatings and in synthetic resin finishes; as a solvent for nitrocellulose in lacquers and as a relatively inert reaction medium. | [Source]
Identified as one of 140 volatile constituents in used soybean oils collected from a
processing plant that fried various beef, chicken, and veal products (Takeoka et al., 1996). Also identified as a volatile constituent released by fresh coffee beans (Coffea canephora variety
Robusta and Coffea arabica) at different stages of ripeness (Mathieu et al., 1998). | [Environmental Fate]
Biological. Heukelekian and Rand (1955) reported a 10-d BOD value of 0.50 g/g which is
17.8% of the ThOD value of 2.81 g/g.
Chemical/Physical. Atkinson et al. (2000) studied the kinetic and products of the gas-phase
reaction of 2-heptanone with OH radicals in purified air at 25 °C and 740 mmHg. A relative rate
constant of 1.17 x 10-11 cm3/molecule·sec was calculated for this reaction. Reaction products
identified by GC, FTIR, and atmospheric pressure ionization tandem mass spectroscopy were
(with respective molar yields): formaldehyde, 0.38; acetaldehyde, λ0.05; propanal, λ0.05; butanal,
0.07; pentanal, 0.09; and molecular weight 175 organic nitrates.
2-Heptanone will not hydrolyze because it does not contain a hydrolyzable functional group.
Burns in air releasing carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. | [storage]
Color Code—Red: Flammability Hazard: Store in a flammable liquid storage area or approved cabinet away from ignition sources and corrosive and reactive materials. Prior to working with this chemical you should be trained on its proper handling and storage. Before entering confined space where this chemical may be present, check to make sure that an explosive concentration does not exist. Methyl (n-amyl) ketone must be stored to avoid contact with oxidizers, such as perchlorates, peroxides, chlorates, nitrites, and permanganates, since violent reaction occur. Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat or flame. Sources of ignition, such as smoking and open flames, are prohibited where methyl (n-amyl) ketone is used, handled, or stored in a manner that could create a potential fire or explosion hazard. | [Toxicity evaluation]
2-Heptanone is metabolized in the liver and causes toxicity by
oxidative and free radical mechanisms. It is known to potentiate
both nephrotoxic and hepatotoxic effects of halogenated
hydrocarbons. | [Incompatibilities]
Forms explosive mixture with air. Strong acids, alkalis, oxidizers. Attacks some forms of plastics. |
