Inhalation: Move person outdoors, assure fresh air and rest. Seek immediate medical attention. Emergency oxygen may assist, particularly for respiratory irritation or difficulty.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash affected area thoroughly with soap and water. If symptoms persist or burn-like damage develops, obtain medical assistance.
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes immediately and continuously with water for several minutes. Keep eyelids open and remove contact lenses if applicable. Seek eye specialist consultation if irritation continues.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water, do not induce vomiting. Provide fresh water. Seek physician care promptly. Avoid giving anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing individual.
Flammability: Compound unlikely to ignite easily based on structure but handle as potentially combustible fine organic material.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide.
Special Hazards: Toxic fumes of hydrogen chloride, nitrogen oxides, and carbon oxides may form in fire conditions.
Protective Equipment: Firefighters wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Isolate area and use water sparingly to prevent chemical runoff.
Firefighting Procedures: Tailor approach based on adjacent chemical storage, maintain upwind if possible, avoid breathing vapors or combustion by-products.
Personal Precautions: Evacuate area if excessive dust or strong odor occurs. Don standard PPE including gloves, goggles, lab coat, and respiratory protection.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spill from reaching sewer or water sources. Avoid washing into natural environment.
Containment: Scoop or vacuum finely divided powder using methods that minimize dust. Avoid water in cleanup unless trained in hazardous material response.
Cleanup Methods: Gather spills into suitable container for disposal per hazardous waste guidelines. Ventilate area and wash surfaces with copious water after removal of material.
Handling: Handle in a well-ventilated workspace. Wear gloves, goggles, and avoid inhalation or direct skin contact. Use techniques that limit dust. No eating, drinking, or smoking in storage or use areas.
Storage: Store locked and cooled, in tightly sealed original container. Keep away from incompatible chemicals including strong oxidizing agents, bases, and moisture. Protect from light and excessive heat.
Incompatibilities: Avoid contact with strong acids, oxidizers, and bases. Prevent cross-contamination with food and feedstuffs.
Special Requirements: Use secondary containment, desiccant packs, and label all containers. Regularly check storage for signs of leakage or degradation.
Engineering Controls: Operate within fume hood or similar ventilated environment. HEPA filtration for any airborne particulates. Provide eyewash stations and safety showers.
Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical resistant gloves (nitrile, neoprene), non-permeable lab coat, wraparound safety goggles, and respiratory mask for dust or aerosol.
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands and face thoroughly after use. Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Clean all PPE before reuse.
Occupational Exposure Limits: No occupational limit established by OSHA, NIOSH, or ACGIH. Apply general dust and toxic substance guidelines from EH40 or local regulations.
Appearance: Off-white to pale yellow powder or crystalline solid—dependent on hydrating conditions.
Odor: Slight chemical odor, not pronounced.
pH: Aqueous solution slightly acidic due to hydrochloride groups.
Melting Point/Freezing Point: Estimated ranges from 155-170°C, based on trihydrochloride salt form.
Boiling Point: Decomposes before boiling.
Flash Point: Not applicable for salt form.
Solubility: Soluble in water, methanol; limited solubility in organic solvents.
Density: About 1.4 g/cm³, variable with water content.
Vapor Pressure: Not measurable; nonvolatile under ambient conditions.
Partition Coefficient: No data.
Autoignition Temperature: No data.
Chemical Stability: Stable under dry, cool, and dark conditions. Hygroscopic and may absorb atmospheric moisture leading to clumping or hydrolysis.
Decomposition Products: Releases hydrogen chloride, nitrogen oxides, and carbon oxides during thermal decomposition.
Reactivity: Reacts with strong oxidizers, strong bases, and acids. May degrade in the presence of moisture.
Polymerization: Hazardous polymerization should not occur.
Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, dermal contact, eye contact, ingestion.
Acute Effects: Irritation to skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. May cause headaches, nausea, dizziness if inhaled or ingested.
Chronic Effects: Prolonged contact could damage skin or respiratory system. Potential target organ toxicity based on related compounds includes liver and kidney effects.

Carcinogenicity: Not classified by IARC, NTP, OSHA.
Mutagenicity/Teratogenicity: No data; handle as if potential risk is present.
Ecotoxicity: Not tested extensively; avoid aquatic release. Structure points toward moderate persistent chemical.
Persistence and Degradability: May not rapidly degrade in soil or water. Possibility of breakdown under biological conditions remains low.
Bioaccumulative Potential: Predicted to have moderate bioaccumulation in aquatic organisms, based on hydrophobic aromatic components.
