| Fire hazards | Flash point data for this chemical are not available. It is probably combustible. (NTP, 1992) |
| Health hazards | SYMPTOMS: Symptoms of exposure to this chemical include skin and eye irritation. |
| Hazards summary | A skin and eye irritant[CAMEO] A severe eye irritantHarmful by ingestion[Sigma-Aldrich MSDS] See POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS. |
| Reactive group | Hydrocarbons, Aromatic |
| Reactivity Profile | Vigorous reactions, sometimes amounting to explosions, can result from the contact between aromatic hydrocarbons, such as 2-METHYLPHENANTHRENE, and strong oxidizing agents. They can react exothermically with bases and with diazo compounds. Substitution at the benzene nucleus occurs by halogenation (acid catalyst), nitration, sulfonation, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction. This chemical may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to light. |
| Air and Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. |
| Hazard Classes and Categories | Acute Tox. 4 (92.7%) |
| Fire fighting | Fires involving this material can be controlled with a dry chemical, carbon dioxide or Halon extinguisher. (NTP, 1992) |
| First aid | EYES: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center. Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim after flushing eyes to a hospital even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop. |
