Important Symptoms: Burning sensations, cough, shortness of breath, nausea, abdominal cramps.
Advice for Physicians: Treat symptomatically, monitor respiratory and cardiac function, consider gastric lavage only after professional risk assessment.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Water spray, dry chemicals, carbon dioxide, or alcohol-resistant foam.
Unsuitable Media: Direct water jets may spread material.
Hazards from Combustion: May give off toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrochloric acid vapors, and other unidentified residues.
Protective Equipment: Wear full protective gear, self-contained breathing apparatus, and chemical-resistant clothing.
Fire-Fighting Procedures: Avoid inhaling smoke, move containers away from fire zone if safe, use water spray to cool exposed surfaces.
Personal Precautions: Evacuate non-essential personnel, only responders trained in chemical spill management should approach; use chemical splash goggles, gloves, lab coat, and suitable respirator as per air levels.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent substance from entering waterways, drains, or soil, use absorbents capable of binding organic toxins, and notify environmental authorities if large quantities escape.
Methods for Cleaning Up: Contain spill with inert absorbent material (vermiculite, dry sand), collect in approved drums, clean residue with detergent and large volumes of water, dispose as hazardous waste.
Decontamination: Ventilate area, wash clothing and equipment before reuse.
Precautions for Safe Handling: Handle under a chemical fume hood, avoid direct overexposure to dust, do not pipette by mouth or eat, drink, or smoke while handling product. Only use equipment rated for chemical compatibility.
Storage Requirements: Keep container tightly closed, in a dry, well-ventilated location, away from incompatible materials such as oxidizers, acids, and bases. Store at room temperature unless specified otherwise by manufacturer.
Other Notes: Regularly check for leaks or other failures, keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Store in original or compatible secondary container with clear labeling.
Exposure Limits: No established OSHA or ACGIH exposure limits, but treat as potentially hazardous based on toxicity profile.
Engineering Controls: Use certified fume hoods, local exhaust ventilation, and closed process systems if available.
Personal Protection: Eyes: Chemical splash goggles, face shield if risk of splashing; Skin: impervious gloves, lab coats, chemical-resistant aprons; Respiratory: NIOSH-approved respirators if dust or vapor risk exists; Hygiene: Wash hands after each use, do not wear contaminated clothing outside work area.
Appearance: Off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder
Odor: Mild amine-like, slightly acrid
Melting Point/Range: Estimated 130–145°C
Boiling Point: Not available (solid decomposes prior to boiling)
pH Value: Acidic in water solution, usually between 2–3
Solubility: Moderately soluble in water, low solubility in organic solvents
Vapor Pressure: Negligible at standard temperature
Density: Approx. 1.4–1.6 g/cm³
Other Data: Decomposes above 150°C, emits toxic fumes upon strong heating
Chemical Stability: Stable under recommended storage and handling conditions, sensitive to moisture and strong light.
Reactivity: Reacts with strong oxidizing agents, acids, bases, and may degrade in the presence of iron or copper ions.
Hazardous Reactions: Violent reactions possible with incompatible reagents (especially oxidizers and strong acids).
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, oxides of phosphorus, hydrochloric acid vapors.
Polymerization: Product does not polymerize under normal conditions.
Likely Routes of Exposure: Absorption through eyes, skin, inhalation, and ingestion.
Symptoms: Respiratory tract irritation, headache, dizziness, skin rash, redness, severe eye irritation, gastrointestinal upset if ingested.
Acute Toxicity: Estimated LD50 (oral, rat) between 80–300 mg/kg, LD50 (dermal) >2000 mg/kg.
Chronic Toxicity: Long-term exposure may damage liver, kidneys, and central nervous system, potential developmental or reproductive impacts not fully studied.
Carcinogenicity: Not classified by IARC, ACGIH, or NTP; analog compounds have shown evidence of carcinogenicity in animal studies.
Mutagenicity: No direct data, but structure suggests possible risk, especially through hydrazine moiety.
Aquatic Toxicity: Toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the ecosystem, slow to degrade in water.
Persistence and Degradability: Limited data; structure suggests persistent environmental impact.
Bioaccumulation: Expected to have moderate potential due to stable aromatic rings.
Soil Mobility: May bind strongly to soils based on structure, breakthrough to groundwater less likely but possible in certain conditions.
Other Harmful Effects: Hydrazine by-products formed during decomposition may increase overall toxicity when released.
Waste Treatment Methods: All remnants, spill cleanup materials, and contaminated containers must be treated as hazardous waste. Incinerate in an approved facility using flue gas scrubbers for acid gases and nitrogen oxides.
Packaging Disposal: Triple rinse empty containers, destroy to prevent reuse, dispose in accordance with chemical waste regulations.
Legal Requirements: Comply with local, regional, and national laws concerning the disposal of hazardous chemicals, including US EPA and EU REACH/CLP rules where applicable.
Avoidance Practices: Do not dump into drains, environment, or household garbage.
