The vapor pressures at 25degC is 242mmHg (after conversion: 323hPa), and 177ppm was thought to be in vapor state. Since rat inhalation LC50 value of 177ppm/8h (RTECS (2004)) is converted to LC50 = 0.583mg/L/4h, it was classified as Category 2.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - - No data available
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Category 2 Warning H315: Causes skin irritation P302+P352: IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water.

P321: Specific treatment (see ... on this label).
P362: Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
There is a notation that there is caustic to humans (SITTIG (4th, 2002)). But also there are "redness" (ICSC (J) (1998)), "irritation to the skin" (HSDB, 2003) (NFPA), and taking into consideration that the result of STANDARD DRAIZE TEST (Severe, RTECS (2004)) to a rabbit is a longer processing time (24hr) than usual, although it did not reach caustic, it was thought that there was strong irritation and it was set as Category 2.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Category 2A-2B Warning H319: Causes serious eye irritation P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
P337+P313: If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
There is the description of stimulating the human eye (ICSC (J) (1998), SITTIG (4th, 2002), HSDB (2003), or accident exapmles (PATTY (5th, 2001)), it has eye irritation. But it is insufficient of the data which judges subdivision, therefore, it was classified into Category 2A-2B. [Indication] 2A is recommended based on the safety, when the Category needs to subdivide.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to lack of data
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available

8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Category 2 (Inhalation: lung), Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation) Warning H371: May cause damage to organs (Inhalation: lung)
H335: May cause respiratory irritation (respiratory tract irritation)
P309+P311: IF exposed or if you feel unwell: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.
P405: Store locked up.

P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
P403+P233: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed.
P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P271: Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
The substance was classified as Category 2 (inhalation: lungs) based on the report, "inhalation of the fumes may cause pulmonary edema" in humans (SITTIG (4th, 2002), ICSC (J) (1998)), and as Category 3 (airway irritant) based on the report, "causes irritation to eyes and airways" (ICSC (J) (1998)), and on an accident case (PATTY (5th, 2001)).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 2 (heart) Warning H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (heart) P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Since we found the description that "the myocardial may be affected and tissue damage may be occured" to human (ICSC (J) (1998)), we classified it into Category 2 (heart).
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - Since there is a description of the possibility of pulmonary edema by aspiration in human (SITTIG (4th, 2002)),however, we have no more information satisfing terms of the guidelines of the classification basis, we could not classify because of insufficient data.

11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) Category 2 - - H401: Toxic to aquatic life P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
It was classified into Category 2 from 96-hour LC50=6000microg/L of fishes (Goldfish) (AQUIRE, 2003).
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) Category 2 - H411: Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P391: Collect spillage.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Classified into Category 2, since acute toxicity was Category 2 , and not rapidly degrading (BOD: 41% (existing chemical safety inspections data)), though supposed less bio-accumulative (log Kow=0.03(PHYSPROP Database, 2005)).
