Properties: Liquid. Agreeable empyreumatic odor resembling that of chloroform. Colorless when freshly distilled, darkens unless every trace of oxygen is removed. d420 0.9691. bp760 129.8°. Best distilled in vacuo. nD20 1.5085. Flash pt, closed cup: 102°F (39.0°C). Absorpion spectrum: Menczel, Phys. Chem. 125, 161; Chem. Zentralbl. 1927, I, 2510. Sparingly sol in water; freely sol in alcohol, benzene, ether. Insol in aq alkalies. Sol in dil acids with decompn. Solns in dil HCl yield pyrrole red, an amorphous, orange-colored substance; also polymerization takes place under the influence of acids and glycols.
