PHYSICAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Explosives Not applicable - - - - There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecules.
2 Flammable gases (including chemically unstable gases) Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
3 Aerosols Not applicable - - - - Not aerosol products.
4 Oxidizing gases Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
5 Gases under pressure Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
6 Flammable liquids Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
7 Flammable solids Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
8 Self-reactive substances and mixtures Not applicable - - - - There are no chemical groups present in the molecule associated with explosive or self-reactive properties.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
10 Pyrophoric solids Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
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 metalloids (B, Si, P, Ge, As, Se, Sn, Sb, Te, Bi, Po, At).
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
14 Oxidizing solids Classification not possible - - - - It is an organic compound containing oxygen (but not fluorine or chlorine), which is chemically bonded to sulfur. Since no test results based on standardized testing methods are available, classification is not possible.
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing no bivalent -O-O- structure
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - No data available.

HEALTH HAZARDS

1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Classification not possible - - - - Rat LD50 of > 4000 mg/kg is documented (IARC 27 (1982)). However, since no explanation on presence/absence of mortality is given, the substance was classified into the "Classification not possible" category due to insufficient test results available.
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 available.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Not classified - - - - In vivo dominant lethal test gave negative results, and 2,4-diaminoanisole (CAS No. 615-05-4) and its hydrochloride (CAS No. 614-94-8) did not induce micronucleus formation in vivo (IARC 79 (2001)). Thus, the substance was classified into the "Not classified" category.
6 Carcinogenicity Category 1B Danger H350: May cause cancer P308+P313: IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention.
P201: Obtain special instructions before use.
P202: Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood.
P281: Use personal protective equipment as required.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
It is rated as "R" by the NTP (US-NTP (2007)) and "Carc. 2" by the EU (EU 2007). Based on these ratings, the substance was classified into Category 1B.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - In a rat study in which hair-dye formulations containing 4% concentration of this substance and several aromatic amines were tested, skeletal abnormalities were noted in fetuses (IARC 79 (2001)). Because we cannot verify that these abnormalities are attributed to this substance, it was classified into the "Classification not possible" category.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - In oral administration tests using rats, increased weight of the thyroid gland, and reduced red and white blood cell count were noted (IARC 79 (2001), DFGOT vol. 9 (1994)). Since no other test results are obtainable, the substance was classified into the "Classification not possible" category due to insufficient study results available.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
