Reactivity Profile · 1 item

Acetic acid or acetic anhydride can explode with permanganates if not kept cold, [Von Schwartz 1918. p. 34]. Explosions can occur when permanganates, treated with sulfuric acid come in contact with benzene, carbon disulfide, diethyl ether, ethyl alcohol, petroleum, or organic matter.
