Safety Profile
No general statement can be made as to the toxicity of esters. Many are highly volatile and hence can act as asphyxiants or narcotics. Skin contact, as well as inhalation, may be an important route of absorption for those esters that are volatile and have a high solvent action. The degree of toxicity ranges from mildly toxic to poison. Esters generally hydrolyze upon contact with moisture; hence, a rough guide to the toxicity of a given ester may be the sum of the toxicities of the products of hydrolysis. Incompatible with nitrates. When heated to decomposition they emit acrid smoke and fumes.
