|---|---|
| Description: | A clear, viscous, colourless or almost colourless, hygroscopic liquid. |
| Solubility: | Soluble in water, miscible with ethanol (95%); slightly soluble in fatty oils. |
| Identification A (By IR): | IR spectra of the sample should be concomitant with IR spectra of the standard. |
| Identification (Reaction of citrates): | Violet color turning to violet-blue should produce. |
| Identification (Reaction of esters): | A bluish-red or red color should produce. |
| Appearance of Solution: | The substance should be clear and not more intensely coloured than reference solution BYS6 |
