About this item

IUPAC name	sodium;methanolate
canonical smiles	C[O-].[Na+]
inchi	InChI=1S/CH3O.Na/c1-2;/h1H3;/q-1;+1
inchi key	WQDUMFSSJAZKTM-UHFFFAOYSA-N
molecular formula	CH3ONa
synonyms	Sodium methanolate SODIUM METHOXIDE Sodium methylate 124-41-4 Methoxysodium
Compound Description	Sodium methylate is a white amorphous powder. It reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide, a corrosive material, and methyl alcohol, a flammable liquid. The heat from this reaction may be sufficient to ignite surrounding combustible material or the sodium methylate itself if the water is present in only small amounts. It is used to process edible fats and oils, and to make other chemicals. A colorless, flammable liquid used in the manufacture of FORMALDEHYDE and ACETIC ACID, in chemical synthesis, antifreeze, and as a solvent. Ingestion of methanol is toxic and may cause blindness.

hazard statements	H228 (30.44%): Flammable solid [Danger Flammable solids] H251 (93.03%): Self-heating; may catch fire [Danger Self-heating substances and mixtures] H290 (43.95%): May be corrosive to metals [Warning Corrosive to Metals] H302 (50.78%): Harmful if swallowed [Warning Acute toxicity, oral] H314 (100%): Causes severe skin burns and eye damage [Danger Skin corrosion/irritation] H318 (31.01%): Causes serious eye damage [Danger Serious eye damage/eye irritation]
hazards summary	Highly toxic. Corrosive to skin. High inhalation exposure of dust may cause pulmonary edema. A strong base that reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide and methyl alcohol, a reaction that may generate enough heat to ignite combustible materials. Rapidly and exothermically reacts with tissue water forming sodium hydroxide (responsible for corrosivity) and methanol. Oral LD50s (rat) range from 800-1,687 mg/kg with water or water soluble solvents as the vehicle, and is 2,037 mg/kg using corn oil. No toxicity observed in 8-hr inhalation study of rats in a dust enriched atmosphere. Not likely to cause skin sensitization or be carcinogenic. See Methyl alcohol. See Sodium hydroxide..
