On combustion, forms toxic and corrosive fumes including hydrogen chloride. Reacts with strong oxidants.
10.2 Chemical stability
Keep tightly closed.
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactions
Choline chloride is a quaternary ammonium salt. Quaternary ammonium salts often serve as catalysts in reactions. They are incompatible with many strong oxidizers and reducing agents, such as metal hydrides, alkali/active metals, and organometallics. Quaternary ammonium salts often serve as catalysts in reactions. They are incompatible with many strong oxidizers and reducing agents, such as metal hydrides, alkali/active metals, and organometallics. Unlike the ammonium ion, [NH4]+, and the primary, secondary, or tertiary ammonium cations, the quaternary ammonium cations are permanently charged, independent of the pH of their solution.
