Appearance: solution
Molecular Weight: 153.92348
Boiling Point: 330°Cat760mmHg
Storage Temperature: Storage location should be close to laboratory where it is to be used, so that only small amounts need to be transported. Carcinogens should be kept in only one section of storage area, explosion-proof refrigerator or freezer as required. The area should be appropriately labeled. An inventory should be kept showing the quantity of carcinogen and date it was acquired. Facilities for dispensing should be contiguous to storage area.
Solubility: extremely soluble
Stability: Complex is unstable @ pH 5; it does not undergo autoxidation @ ambient temperature, but this does occur @ 65-70 C. Expiration date of 5 yr following date of mfr.
Usage: Medication.
