First Aid Measures

Inhalation: Move affected person out of exposure; keep in fresh air. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist or are severe
Skin Contact: Immediately wash exposed skin with running water and mild soap. Remove contaminated clothing; consult physician if redness or irritation stays
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes with water for at least fifteen minutes, holding eyelids open. Remove contact lenses if present. Get medical help for discomfort
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with plenty of water without swallowing. Never give anything by mouth to someone unconscious. Medical help is essential if swallowed
Note for Doctors: Treat symptomatically. Special antidote not available. Support respiratory function and prevent secondary infection for any severe reactions

Fire-Fighting Measures

Flammability: This compound does not ignite easily, though decomposition products from fire hazards include toxic and corrosive gases (nitrogen oxides, hydrogen chloride)
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use dry powder, carbon dioxide, or alcohol-resistant foam. Water spray reduces risk as a cooling agent but direct water jets spread contamination
Firefighting Equipment: Full-face, self-contained breathing apparatus and protective gear stand as non-negotiable safeguards against toxic smoke
Special Hazards: Burning product liberates hydrochloric acid gas and oxides of nitrogen; ensure downwind evacuation and ventilate area
Advice for Firefighters: Isolate danger zone and clear area. Prevent runoff from entering drains or waterways by use of diking materials

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Staff wear approved respirator, goggles, chemical-resistant gloves, and garments. Avoid dust formation; evacuate non-essential personnel immediately
Environmental Precautions: Avoid entry into sewer, surface water, or soil. Contain contaminated wash solutions using absorbent, impermeable barriers
Cleanup Methods: Sweep spillage into sealable, chemical-resistant containers. Wash spill site with water and detergent after collection; ventilate affected area. Dispose of via licensed chemical waste handler
Decontamination: Clean site with suitable, non-reactive cleaning agents and water. Remove contaminated protective equipment carefully to prevent secondary exposure

Handling and Storage

Handling: Use fume hood, suitable local exhaust ventilation, and chemical splash-proof equipment. Avoid breathing dust, vapor, or mist; never eat, drink, or smoke in handling areas. Wash hands and skin after handling. Use double containment when weighing or transferring material
Storage: Store material in tightly closed, properly labeled containers under dry, well-ventilated conditions. Maintain storage temperature between +2°C and +8°C, away from sunlight and sources of moisture. Keep away from incompatible chemicals (strong oxidizers, acids, bases). Regularly check containers for integrity. Limit access to authorized, trained personnel

Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Occupational Exposure Limits: Not established for this specific substance in major regulations; treat as hazardous chemical with strict limits
Engineering Controls: Chemical fume hood with negative pressure, splash-proof eyewash stations, and emergency showers nearby
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Lab coat, impermeable gloves, safety eyewear, and certified respirator if risk of inhalation exists
Hygiene Measures: Change contaminated clothing immediately. Avoid cross-contamination. Regularly monitor workspaces for dust concentration and spills

Physical and Chemical Properties

Appearance: Fine, off-white or pale yellow powder or crystalline solid, odorless or faint odor
Molecular Weight: Estimated at approximately 488 g/mol (including trihydrochloride)
Solubility: Readily dissolves in water, ethanol, and DMSO. Limited solubility in organic hydrocarbons
Melting Point: Decomposes upon heating before melting (range: 200–240°C observed in similar compounds)
Boiling Point: Not applicable; decomposes before boiling occurs
Vapor Pressure: Negligible at room temperature
pH (1% solution): Approximately 3–4 (acidic)
Partition Coefficient: Moderate water solubility expected, logP unavailable
Other Data: Stable as solid or aqueous solution for up to six months under +4°C, dry, dark conditions

Stability and Reactivity

Reactivity: No rapid polymerization or dangerous exothermic reactions occur with normal use
Chemical Stability: Maintains stability in dry, dark, sealed containers under refrigerated conditions. Degrades under prolonged light, heat, or exposure to air
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizing agents, strong acids or bases, and agents that promote hydrolysis should not contact this substance
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Thermal decomposition yields hydrochloric acid fumes, nitrogen oxides, and other hazardous gases
Dangerous Reactions: No violent hazardous polymerizations documented. Avoid exposing to open flames and uncontrolled heating

Toxicological Information

Acute Toxicity: Data on animals or humans not available; structurally related aminobenzene compounds can cause mild to moderate toxicity upon ingestion or skin exposure
Irritation: Eye, skin, and respiratory tract irritation likely. Dust or solution splashes may bring redness, discomfort, or pain
Sensitization: Sensitization through skin contact possible for repeated or prolonged use
Chronic Effects: Not fully understood; continuous exposure raises long-term risk of skin or respiratory reactions
Carcinogenicity: No substances in this formulation appear in IARC or OSHA carcinogen lists; chemical structure provides no known triggers for mutagenic or reproductive effects
Additional Effects: No evidence yet for reproductive or teratogenic toxicity

Ecological Information

Ecotoxicity: Insufficient data; structure suggests moderate hazard to aquatic organisms if released in quantity
Persistence and Degradability: Likely slow breakdown in soil or water, can form persistent residues if improperly disposed
Bioaccumulation: Bioaccumulation not expected due to molecular size and high nitrogen content, though certainty requires direct study
Mobility in Soil: Moderate solubility in water indicates possibility of movement through soil if spilled and not contained
Other Adverse Effects: No ozone depletion, global warming, or PBT claims known. Chemical waste should be handled as high-concern laboratory residue

Disposal Considerations

Waste Treatment Methods: Affix all waste, including contaminated absorbents, glassware, and packaging, in robust, clearly labeled chemical waste containers
Disposal of Product: Classify as hazardous laboratory waste. Engage trained chemical waste processors or authorized hazardous waste landfill operators
Contaminated Packaging: Rinse only if intended for reprocessing by hazardous waste handler. Otherwise, seal tightly before collection
Disposal Procedures: Never pour down drains, municipal garbage, or regular landfill. Gather for high-temperature chemical incineration under government-approved protocol

Transport Information

Transport Precautions: Secure in shock-resistant, sealed containers; protect from sunlight, temperature extremes, movement, and moisture
Special Protocols: All drivers, handlers, and recipients follow written guidelines for chemical hazards

Regulatory Information

Safety Health and Environmental Regulations: This substance lacks full reporting or exposure limits under U.S. OSHA, Canadian WHMIS, and EU REACH, so laboratory-specific SOPs govern risk management
