Common Name: 3-Chloroaniline Chemical Formula: C6H6ClN Synonyms: meta-Chloroaniline, m-Chloroaniline Appearance: Pale yellow to light brown oily liquid
Acute Toxicity: Harmful by inhalation, ingestion, or skin absorption Health Risks: Causes irritation to skin, eyes, and respiratory tract; may cause blood disorders including methemoglobinemia, headaches, dizziness, cyanosis Chronic Effects: Prolonged or repeated exposure links to liver and kidney damage Flammable Risk: Substance can catch fire if exposed to significant ignition sources GHS Label Elements: Harmful if swallowed or in contact with skin; toxic to aquatic life
Chemical: 3-Chloroaniline CAS Number: 108-42-9 Purity: Typically over 98% in laboratory and industrial settings Classification: Aromatic amine with known hazardous properties
Inhalation: Move exposed person to fresh air; seek medical attention for difficulty or failure to breathe Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing; wash skin thoroughly with soap and water; seek help for persistent irritation Eye Contact: Rinse eyes for several minutes under gentle running water; avoid rubbing; consult a doctor for redness or pain Ingestion: Rinse mouth out; avoid inducing vomiting unless directed by medical personnel; get immediate medical assistance Special Notes: Blue discoloration of skin may indicate serious oxygen deprivation; act fast
Suitable Extinguishers: Use foam, dry chemical powder, or carbon dioxide Hazardous Combustion Products: Releases nitrogen oxides, hydrogen chloride, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide Special Protective Equipment: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full gear Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazards: Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air
Personal Precautions: Avoid breathing vapors; wear protective gloves, goggles, and clothing Spill Containment: Ventilate area; eliminate all sources of ignition; prevent from entering sewers or waterways Clean-Up Practices: Absorb with inert material such as sand or earth; place in a tightly sealed container for proper disposal
Handling: Keep containers tightly closed; avoid physical contact with liquid and vapor; wash hands thoroughly after use Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from acids, oxidizers, and heat sources; keep out of reach of incompatible chemicals
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation; work in fume hoods whenever possible Personal Protective Equipment: Wear chemical-resistant gloves, splash-proof goggles, and lab coats Respiratory Protection: Use approved respirators for high concentrations Hygiene Measures: Change contaminated clothing and wash exposed areas
Molecular Weight: 127.57 g/mol Boiling Point: Around 232 °C Melting Point: Close to -11 °C Solubility: Slightly soluble in water; mixes with organic solvents Odor: Amine-like
Stability: Stable under ordinary conditions but reacts with strong oxidizing agents Hazardous Decomposition: Risk of emitting toxic gases such as nitrogen oxides and hydrogen chloride on decomposition Conditions to Avoid: Heat, flame, and incompatible chemicals
Routes of Exposure: Absorption through skin, inhalation, or ingestion Symptoms: Blue skin coloration, headache, nausea, dizziness, difficulty breathing Toxicity Data: LD50 oral (rat): in the range of hundreds of mg/kg Long-term Exposure: Monitored links to blood disorders, liver, and kidney complications
Toxicity to Aquatic Life: Highly toxic to aquatic organisms and has potential for long-term effects in aquatic environments Persistence and Degradability: Does not break down easily; can accumulate in environment Mobility in Soil: May migrate under certain conditions; restricts groundwater renewal
Disposal Methods: Collect and deliver to licensed waste disposal site; avoid flushing into drains Contaminated Packaging: Clean then recycle or dispose in line with local regulations
Mode of Transport: Package securely; keep upright during transit Transport Hazards: Mark as hazardous, avoid rough handling Emergency Procedures: Contain spills quickly to limit environmental release
Global Classifications: Listed as hazardous under major chemical regulations including GHS Workplace Limits: Occupational exposure guidelines set by health and safety authorities Environmental Restrictions: Control measures required for disposal, emissions, and releases
