CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
| Physical Description | N-nitrosopyrrolidine is a yellow liquid found in certain food products and tobacco smoke. Probably a carcinogen. |
|---|---|
| Color/Form | Yellow liquid |
| Boiling Point | 417 °F at 760 mmHg (NTP, 1992) |
| Flash Point | 181 °F (NTP, 1992) |
| Solubility | Miscible with water |
| Density | 1.085 at 68 °F (NTP, 1992) - Denser than water; will sink |
| Vapor Pressure | 0.06 [mmHg] |
| LogP | log Kow = -0.19 |
| Henry's Law Constant | Henry's Law constant = 4.89X10-8 atm-cu m/mol at 37 °C |
| Stability/Shelf Life | Stable at room temperature for more than 14 days in neutral or alkaline aq soln in dark; slightly less stable in acidic solution; light-sensitive, especially to UV light. |
| Decomposition | When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of /oxides of nitrogen/. |
| Kovats Retention Index | 952 |
| Other Experimental Properties | Can be steam-distilled; strong oxidants (peracids) oxidize it to corresponding nitramine; can be reduced to corresponding hydrazine and/or amine; relatively resistant to hydrolysis, but can be split by hydrogen bromide in acetic acid |
| Chemical Classes | Nitrogen Compounds -> Nitrosamines |
