| 1 | Explosives | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Not classified because of UNRTDG No. 1598, Class: 6.1, PG II (not Class: 1.1to 1.6), though the substance contains N-O as chemical groups associated with explosive properties present. (Note: It is a generic name of not a single substance but isomers of Dinitro-o-cresol; 4,6-Dinitro-o-cresol (ID No.0078, CAS No.534-52-1), 3, 5-Dinitro-o-cresol, and 2, 6-Dinitro-o-cresol), which are expected to have different properties.) |
| 2 | Flammable gases （including chemically unstable gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |

| 6 | Flammable liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 7 | Flammable solids | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Although it is a flammable (CHRIS-Chemical Hazards Response Information System, U.S.Department of Transportation/U.S.Coast Guard, 1999 ) (ERG, Guide No.153, 2004), UNRTDG is classified into 6.1 and II according to the UNRTDG No. (1598). Since 4.1 corresponding to flammable solids was not assigned, it was classified as out of Category. |
| 8 | Self-reactive substances and mixtures | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Although the grouping (N-O) relevant to explosive is included, the grouping relevant to autoreactive is not included. UNRTDG is classified into 6.1 and II according to the U.N. number (1598) peculiar to a substance. The UN number and UNRTDG did not correspond to an autoreactive chemicals, and was set as outside of Category. |
| 9 | Pyrophoric liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 10 | Pyrophoric solids | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Not classified because of UNRTDG No. 1598, Class: 6.1, II (not Class: 4.2) |
| 11 | Self-heating substances and mixtures | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Not classified because of UNRTDG No. 1598 Class: 6.1, PGII (not Class: 4.2) |
| 12 | Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | The chemical structure of the substance does not contain metals or metaloids(B, Si, P, Ge, As, Se, Sn, Sb, Te, Bi, Po, At). |
| 13 | Oxidizing liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 14 | Oxidizing solids | Not classified | - | - | - | - | UNRTDG No. 1598, Class: 6.1; PG II (Not 5.1). |
| 15 | Organic peroxides | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Organic compounds containing no -0-0- structure |
| 16 | Corrosive to metals | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Test methods applicable to solid substances are not available. |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Without data. [Note] It is not an only substance. It is the generic of the isomer of dinitro-o-cresol (4, 6-dinitro-o-cresol (ID No.0078, CAS No.534-52-1), 3, 5-dinitro-o-cresol, 2, 6-dinitro-o-cresol). It is thought that nature differs for every isomer. GHS classification of ID No.1046 was surveyed and classified as CAS No.1335-85-9. Also refer to the classification result of 4, 6-dinitro-o-cresol (ID No.0078, CAS No.534-52-1), 4, 6-dinitro-o-cresol sodium (ID No.1047, CAS No.2312-76-7). |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data. In addition, there is a statement that 4,6-dinitro-o-cresol stimulates the skin (ICSC (J), 2004). |
| 3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data. In addition, 4,6-dinitro-o-cresol has a statement that causticty is indicated to the eye (ICSC (J), 2004). |
| 4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. In addition, it is indicated that 4,6-dinitro-o-cresol for industry may cause skin sensitization (ICSC (J), 2004). |
| 5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data. It is also reported that 4,6-dinitro-ortho-cresol stains the skin yellow, affects the metabolic rate and can cause death at a higher concentration (ICSC (J), 2004), and that the dinitro-derivatives (phenols and cresols) damage the liver and kidneys (DHP, 13th, 2002). |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data. In addition, we found a description that dinitro derivatives (phenols and cresol) damage the liver and the kidney (DHP, 13th, 2002). |
