CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Physical Description | Phorbol is a white solid. (NTP, 1992) |
---|---|
Color/Form | Anhydrous crystals; two forms of solvated crystals from ethyl acetate; solvated crystals from methanol or ethanol |
Melting Point | 482 to 484 °F (solvent-free) (decomposes) (NTP, 1992) |
Solubility | Quite soluble (NTP, 1992) |
Density | Density of solvated phorbol: 1.2 g/cu cm, where solvated phorbol contains one phorbol molecule and one ethanol molecule. |
Stability/Shelf Life | Phorbol is unstable to prolonged exposure to air, light and ambient temperatures. |
Optical Rotation | Specific optical rotation (water): +102 deg at 24 °C/D; +118 deg at 20 °C/D (c = 0.4 in dioxane) |
Decomposition | Decomposes at 250-251 °C (solvent free) |
Other Experimental Properties | Phorbol is unstable to prolonged exposure to air, light and ambient temperatures. It is also sensitive to acid and alkalis and is subject to autooxidation. It dissolves slowly, therefore solution in a desired solvent is best accomplished by prolonged shaking under an inert atmosphere. |
Chemical Classes | Biological Agents -> Plant Toxins |
