Apply water from as far a distance as possible. Use foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. Keep run-off water out of sewers and water sources.

Fire fighting measures. Suitable extinguishing agents. Carbon dioxide, extinguishing powder or water spray. Fight larger fires with water spray or alcohol resistant foam. Special hazards caused by the material, its products of combustion or resulting gases: In case of fire, the following can be released: carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen chloride. Protective equipment: Wear self-contained respirator. Wear fully protective impervious suit.

SRP: The most favorable course of action is to use an alternative chemical product with less inherent propensity for occupational exposure or environmental contamination. Recycle any unused portion of the material for its approved use or return it to the manufacturer or supplier. Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider: the material's impact on air quality; potential migration in soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic, and plant life; and conformance with environmental and public health regulations.

/Use in/ properly operating chemical fume hood designed for hazardous chemicals and having an average face velocity of at least 100 ft per minute.

The usual precautionary measures for handling chemicals should be followed. Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed. Remove all soiled and contaminated clothing immediately. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.

In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 390(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 2.23(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 5.6X10-9 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(4). 2-Chloro-5-nitroaniline is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 4.8X10-4 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(5). A biodegradation half-life of 9.9 hours determined using a bank infiltration simulation test(6) suggests that biodegradtion may be an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 390(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 2.23(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 5.6X10-9 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(4). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 10(SRC), from its log Kow of 2.23(2) and a regression-derived equation(6), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). A biodegradation half-life of 9.9 hours determined using a bank infiltration simulation test(7) suggests that biodegradtion may be an important environmental fate process in water(SRC).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 4.8X10-4 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 5.8 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 2.7X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). 2-Chloro-5-nitroaniline contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

The Koc of 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline is estimated as 390(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.23(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this Koc value suggests that 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline is expected to have moderate mobility in soil. However, anilines are expected to bind strongly to humus or organic matter in soils due to the high reactivity of the aromatic amino group(4,5), suggesting that mobility may be much lower in some soils(SRC). The log Koc of 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline was measured as 2.23 in Yangtze river sediment (37.1% sand, 49.3% silt, 13.6% clay, 1.28% organic carbon, pH 7.44)(1). The log Koc was also measured as 3.63 in modified clay(6). These values give Koc values of 170 and 4,300, respectively(SRC).

AEROBIC: 2-Chloro-5-nitroaniline exhibited a biodegradation rate of 0.07/hr (half-life of 9.9 hrs) using river water/sediment from the Elbe River, Germany in a testfilter bank infiltration simulation circulation column experiment which employed a pumping rate of 3 mL/min(1). Rive water samples were collected at Dresden between March 1995 and December 1998(1). Water was filtered through a 0.5 um glass fiber filter and spiked by 3-chloro-5-nitroaniline at a concentration range of 3-24 ug/L(1). Relative to the other aniline compounds tested, the half-life of 9.9 days was considered average by the authors(1).

An estimated BCF of 10 was calculated in fish for 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.23(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

The Henry's Law constant for 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline is estimated as 5.6X10-9 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) using a fragment constant estimation method(1). This Henry's Law constant indicates that 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline is expected to be essentially nonvolatile from water surfaces(2). 2-Chloro-5-nitroaniline is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 4.8X10-4 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(3).

/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ Irritant to skin and mucous membranes. Irritating effect on the eye. No sensitizing effects known.

/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Subchronic or Prechronic Exposure/ RTECS reports the following effects in laboratory animals: behavioral - altered sleep time (including change in righting reflex). Behavioral - muscle weakness. Liver - changes in liver weight. Endocrine - changes in spleen weight. Blood - other changes.

The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of 2-chloro-5-nitroaniline with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals has been estimated as 2.7X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 5.8 days at an atmospheric concentration of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm(1). 2-Chloro-5-nitroaniline is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions(2). 2-Chloro-5-nitroaniline contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(2) and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).
