| Gefahrenübersicht | May be a strong irritant[HSDB] In high-dose animal studies, causes somnolence, elevation of liver enzymes, fatty liver degeneration, and acute tubular necrosis[RTECS]The major hazards encountered in the use and handling of 2,4-dichlorotoluene stem from its toxicologic properties and flammability. Exposure to 2,4-dichlorotoluene may occur via inhalation or dermal routes, primarily resulting from occupational activities including those associated with its use as a high boiling solvent and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Because it is a strong irritant, personnel involved with 2,4-dichlorotoluene should wear boots, protective gloves, and goggles, at a minimum. Avoid breathing vapor or, to enter a contaminated area freely, wear full face mask self-contained breathing apparatus which provides eye protection. Broken packages containing 2,4-dichlorotoluene should not be handled without protective equipment. Any of this material which contacts the body must be washed away with copious amounts of water. While substance must be moderately heated before ignition occurs (flashpoint: 199 °F, open cup), 2,4-dichlorotoluene is, nevertheless, considered a combustion hazard. Normal fire fighting procedures may be employed, which includes the use of "alcohol" foam, or dry chemical extinguishing agents. Water also may be used in flooding quantities as a fog or spray (solid streams may be ineffective) to extinguish the fire or cool containers. Application of water should be from as far a distance as possible. This substance is considered to be normally stable, even under fire exposure conditions. Nonetheless, it should be stored away from sparks, flames, or other sources ignition. Shipping regulations and other DOT regulatory requirements should be consulted before transport. If 2,4-dichlorotoluene spills, keep material out of water sources and sewersbuilding dikes to contain the flow as necessary. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance. |

Detection of aromatic hydrocarbons in hazardous waste, by gas chromatography-Fourier transform IR spectometry and by gas chromatography-mass spectometry.Sixt S et alChemosphere 30 (12): 2397-414 (1995). The acute toxicity to Photobacterium phosphoreum (Microtox test) of a set of 80 chlorinated compounds, containing aliphatics, benzenes, toluenes, phenols and anilines, was investigated using 'Theoretical Linear Solvation Energy Relationship' parameters. Quantitative Structure Activity Relationships were developed for chemical and toxicological subsets. Molecular volume revealed to be the most important Theoretical Linear Solvation Energy Relationship descriptor. For the complete data set and for the phenols the Theoretical Linear Solvation Energy Relationship descriptors are superior to log P alone. In the case of the phenols this is related to electronic information being inherent in the electrostatic parameter q-, which is correlated to the pKa of the compounds. For the benzenes a quadratic term in Vmc was very useful for the description of the toxicity, Many of the chlorinated aliphatics do not fit the narcosis II Quantitative Structural Activity Relationship. Enhanced chemical reactivity due to the chlorine substitution may lead to activation or biodegradation of these compounds. The attempt to establish narcosis II Quantitative Structural Activity Relationships for the polar narcotic chloroanilines and -phenols was unsuccessful. It seems that some chloroanilines interact directly with the bioluminescence system of P. phosphoreum. The authors emphasize that the concept of baseline narcosis implies that the pure narcosis II mechanism decreases with increasing log P. The site of toxic action for narcosis II is therefore thought to be hydrophilic. Uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation seems to play a minor role in the photobacterium than it does in fish. Reasons for this may be the ability of bacteria to crack and detoxify aromatic rings or the relative robustness of oxidative phosphorylation in bacteria. |
| Reactivity Profile | Simple aromatic halogenated organic compounds, such as 2,4-DICHLOROTOLUENE, are very unreactive. Halogenated organics generally become less reactive as more of their hydrogen atoms are replaced with halogen atoms. Materials in this group may be incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Also, they may be incompatible with many amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides. |
| Chemical Dangers | Decomposes on heating. This produces carbon monoxide and vinyl chloride. Reacts violently with strong oxidants and strong bases. |

| Umweltverhalten | TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 4,800(SRC), determined from a measured log Kow(2) and a recommended regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 2,4-dichlorotoluene will have only slight mobility in soil(SRC). 2,4-Dichlorotoluene was found to be susceptible to anaerobic biodegradation in soil slurry microcosms under methanogenic conditionscomplete degradation required 130 days(4). The predominant product of this reaction was 4-chlorotoluene, a small amount of 2-chlorotoluene was also produced(4). Volatilization of 2,4-dichlorotoluene may be important from moist soil surfaces(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.2X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a recommended regression equation(5) and from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based on a measured vapor pressure of 0.458 mm Hg(6).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 4,800(SRC), determined from a measured log Kow(2) and a recommended regression-derived equation(1), indicates that 2,4-dichlorotoluene may adsorb to suspended solids and sediment in water(SRC). Based on limited data, this compound may biodegrade under anaerobic conditions(SRC). 2,4-Dichlorotoluene was found to be susceptible to anaerobic biodegradation in soil slurry microcosms under methanogenic conditionscomplete degradation required 130 days(3). The predominant product of this reaction was 4-chlorotoluene, a small amount of 2-chlorotoluene was also produced(3). 2,4-Dichlorotoluene may volatilize from water surfaces based on an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.2X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(4). Estimated half-lives for a model river and model lake are 4 hours and 5 days, respectively(1,SRC), although adsorption to sediment or suspended material in water may attenuate this process(SRC). An estimated BCF value of 1000(1,SRC), from a measured log Kow(2), suggests that 2,4-dichlorotoluene will bioconcentrate in aquatic organisms(SRC), according to a recommended classification scheme(5). The half-life of 2,4-dichlorotoluene in the Rhine River in The Netherlands is 1 day as determined by measuring concentration differences over a reach of the river(6,SRC).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 2,4-dichlorotoluene, which has a measured vapor pressure of 0.458 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), should exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 2,4-dichlorotoluene 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 about 12 days(3,SRC). |
