It corresponds to Category 4a from flash point of 69 deg C [closed-cup] (ICSC (J) (2005)) >60 deg C and <= 93 deg C.
7 Flammable solids Not applicable
-
-
- - Liquid (GHS definition)
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 classified
-
-
- - It is estimated that it does not ignite at normal temperatures from an autoignition temperature of 500 deg C (Ullmanns (E) (6th, 2003)).
10 Pyrophoric solids Not applicable
-
-
- - Liquid (GHS definition)
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Classification not possible
-
-
- - Test methods applicable to liquid substances are not available.
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not classified
-
-
- - There is information that it reacts vigorously with water on contact and generates hydrogen chloride (gas) or the vapor of hydrochloric acid and phenol (Hommel (1996)), but it does not emit flammable gases.
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable
-
-
- - The substance is an organic compound containing chlorine and oxygen (but not fluorine) which are chemically bonded only to carbon.
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable
-
-
- - Liquid (GHS definition)
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable
-
-
- - Organic compounds containing no bivalent -O-O- structure.
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible
-
-
- - The classification is not possible due to no data in the prescribed test method. Besides, there is information that most metals are not usable as a container because the substance is corrosive in the presence of humidity (Hommel (1996)).

It was classified in Category 4 from an LD50 value of 1,734 mg/kg for rats (RTECS (1997), the original article: American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal: 30, 470, 1969). Besides, as for health hazards, also refer to hydrogen chloride (CAS: 7647-01-0) and phenol (CAS: 108-95-2) because this substance is hydrolyzed by water or humidity to form hydrogen chloride and phenol.
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Not classified
-
-
- - It was classified as "Not classified" (Category 5 in UN GHS classification) from an LD50 value of 4,883 mg/kg for rabbits (RTECS (1997), the original article: American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal.: 30, 470, 1969) after confirming the original article.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable

- - Liquid (GHS definition)

As for a description of an LCLo of 44 ppm/4 hours for rats (RTECS (1997)), as a result of confirming the original article, mortality was 3/6 after 4-hour exposure to 44 ppm (the original article: American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal: 30, 470, 1969). Therefore, it was classified in Category 1. Besides, because the test concentration (44 ppm) was lower than 90% of the saturated vapour pressure concentration (737 ppm), a reference value of gas was applied as vapour with little mist.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible
-
-
- - No data available.
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Classification not possible
-
-
- - Data are lacking. Besides, it is described in List 3 information that a 24-hour application of 500 mg to the rabbit skin caused mild irritation (RTECS (1997)), but the details are unknown.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible
-
-
- - Data are lacking. Besides, it is described in List 3 information that an application of 50 microg to the rabbit eye caused severe irritation (RTECS (1997)), but the details are unknown.
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
-
-
- - 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 available. Besides, it is described in List 3 information that inhalation of this substance may cause sore throat, burning sensation, cough, labored breathing, and shortness of breath (ICSC (J) (2005)).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible
-
-
- - No data available.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible
-
-
- - No data available.
