 Because it is judged that it is >= 23 degrees C and <= 60 degrees C in a prescribed closed-cup test method from a flash point of 30 degrees C [unkown] (Lange (16th, 2005)) in an unknown test method, it was classified in Category 3.
7 Flammable solids Not applicable - - - It is a liquid at normal temperatures (Merck (14th, 2006)).
8 Self-reactive substances and mixtures Not applicable - - - Containing neither chemical groups related to explosibility nor those related to self-reactivity.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Classification not possible - - - No data.
10 Pyrophoric solids Not applicable - - - It is a liquid at normal temperatures (Merck (14th, 2006)).
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Classification not possible - - - No established test method suitable for liquid substances.
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not applicable - - - Not containing metals or semimetals (B, Si, P, Ge, As, Se, Sn, Sb, Te, Bi, Po, At).
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - An organic compound contains fluorine and oxygen in the molecule, and these elements are not chemically bonded to elements other than carbon.
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable - - - It is a liquid at normal temperatures (Merck (14th, 2006)).
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - An organic compound that does not contain -O-O- structure.
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - No data.

 On the basis of LD50 values of 6 to 10 mg/kg bw for mice (PATTY (5th, 2001)), it was classified in Category 2.
1 Acute toxicity （Dermal） Classification not possible - - - No data.
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） Not applicable - - - It is a liquid at normal temperatures (Merck (14th, 2006)).
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） Classification not possible - - - Lack of data.
Besides, the classification is not possible from a reported LCLo of 100 mg/m3 (23 ppmV) for guinea pigs, because exposure duration is unknown and the category could not be determined.
In addition, a reference value of gasses is applied because the toxicity value (23 ppmV) is lower than 90 % of the saturated vapour pressure concentration (20526 ppmV).
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） Classification not possible - - - No data.
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Classification not possible - - - No data.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible - - - No data.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - No data.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - No data.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - No data.
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - No data.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - No data.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - No data.
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - No data.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - No data.
