SODIUM NITROPRUSSIDE
-
Molecular Structure
Other Information
- CAS Registry Number: 13755-38-9
- Transport: UN 3288 6
- Flash Point: °C
- Boiling Point: °Cat760mmHg
- Density: 1.72
- Water Solubility: Soluble.
- Safety Statements: Poison by ingestion, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, and intravenous routes. The effects of this material are similar to that of nitrites, causing fall in blood pressure but no formation of methemoglobin. Large amounts, when taken internally, may form cyanide upon being metabolized. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Na2O and NOx. See also CYANIDE.
