Stability and Reactivity

Reactivity Reacts violently with nitric acid
Chemical stability Stable
Possibility of hazardous reactions Nitroaromatic (especially polynitroaromatic) compounds are seriously explosive if exposed to shock, sudden heating or uncontrolled fire; they may also decompose violently or explode if heated more gently with corrosive bases (even in the presence of water or organic solvents).
Conditions to avoid Heat, flames and sparks
Incompatible materials Strong oxidizing agents, strong reducing agents, strong bases
Hazardous decomposition products Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides
