Has anyone worked with Ac4ManNAz? I’m wondering if it’s classified as an azide compound and whether it poses any explosion risks. Would really appreciate some insights!!
The molecular weight of azide organic compounds is generally determined by the proportion of azide groups in the total molecular weight. The higher the nitrogen content, the more likely it is to explode. The nitrogen content of this product is okay and is relatively not that explosive.
However, any compound with azide groups has a potential explosion hazard. Customers are advised to take protective measures to avoid contact between samples and metal products such as metal spoons.
