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.

General First Aid:

· Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).

Immediate precautionary measure

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane will have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane is not expected to be important from moist soil surfaces(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 6.1X10-8 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(3). Data regarding the aerobic biodegradation of 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane in soil are variable; in screening tests, this compound reached 0(4) to 1%(5) of the theoretical BOD in 5 days and 68% of the theoretical BOD in 14 days(6). Under anaerobic conditions, 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane may be resistant to biodegradation; using an acclimated culture, only 26% of the initial 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane concentration was utilized in 90 days(7).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1(SRC), determined from structure estimation method(2), indicates that 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane should not adsorb to suspended solids and sediment in water(SRC). 3-Chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane is not expected to volatilize from water surfaces(1,SRC) based on an estimated Henry's Law constant of 6.1X10-8 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(3). According to a classification scheme(4), an estimated BCF value of 0.2(1,SRC), from an estimated log Kow(9,SRC), suggests that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Data regarding the aerobic biodegradation of 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane in water are inconclusive; in screening tests, this compound reached 0(5) to 1%(6) of the theoretical BOD in 5 days and 68% of the theoretical BOD in 14 days(7). Under anaerobic conditions, 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane may be resistant to biodegradation; using an acclimated culture, only 26% of the initial 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane concentration was utilized in 90 days(8).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane, which has a measured vapor pressure of 0.2 mm Hg at 20 °C(2), will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane 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 2 days(3,SRC).

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane can be estimated to be about 1(SRC). According to a recommended classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane has very high mobility in soil(SRC).

The effects of acute oral exposure to 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol (CPD) by gavage in male Wistar rats (20 in control group (water), 5/treated group, number of treated groups not reported) were determined. CPD (50 mg/kg) was administered orally and the rats were necropsied on the 11th day following dosing. There were differences between treated and control animals only in reduced sperm head counts. There were no significant differences between treated and control animals in the following: clinical observations, histopathology of the testes, and testes weights.

Acute oral toxicity of 2-propenyloxy-2,3-epoxypropane (CAS# 96-24-2) was evaluated using 4 groups of Long-Evans rats (6 per group, sex not indicated) dosed by gavage at levels of 0.10, 0.13, 0.16, and 0.20 g/kg bodyweight. The use of controls was not reported. Animals were observed for 10 days post-treatment. Mortalities included 1 at the 0.10 g/kg dose level, 1 at the 0.13 g/kg level, 3 at the 0.16 g/kg level and 6 (all) at the 0.20 g/kg level. All deaths occurred within 48 hours post-treatment. The LD50 was determined to be 0.15 (0.13-0.18) g/kg bodyweight (method not reported). Clinical observations included sluggishness, prostration, flaccid paralysis of head and legs, hypnosis, dyspnea, and moderate lacrimation. Findings upon gross necropsy included irritation of the lungs and gastrointestinal tract, gelatinous pancreatic tissue, enlarged and hyperemic adrenals, granular-looking kidneys, as well as edematous conditions in some the lymphatic and lipoidal tissue of the peritoneum. Microscopic findings included inflammation in the biliary fat; early necrosis and regeneration of the tubular epithelium; and precipitated protein in and dilation of the tubules.

Acute toxicity was evaluated in groups of 6 male Long-Evans rats fed a-monochlorohydrin at dose levels of 0.10, 0.13, 0.16, and 0.20 g/kg bw, by gavage, then observed for 10 days. Clinical signs of toxicity first appeared 22 hours after treatment and included prostration, hypnosis, sluggishness, dyspnea, moderate lacrimation, and flaccid paralysis of the head or legs. Rats that survived treatment lost weight during the observation period. The treatment killed 1, 1, 3, and 6 rats from the lowest to highest dose groups, respectively. Rats that died had severe diffuse irritation of the lungs with hemorrhagic lesions and marked pleural effusion; slight to severe irritation of the gastrointestinal tracts with some friable livers; slight ascites; enlarged, hyperemic adrenals; pale, swollen, granular-looking kidneys; gelatinous pancreatic tissue; and occasionally, edematous lymphatic and lipoidal tissue of the peritoneum. Rats that survived treatment had hyperemia of the lungs and granular-looking kidneys. Histological abnormalities included acute inflammation in the hilar fat, and, in the kidneys, early necrosis of the tubular epithelium with precipitated protein in the tubules, and stages of regeneration of epithelium with dilation of tubules and presence of casts. The LD50 value was 0.15 g/kg bw.

3-Chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane's production and use in dynamite, in the manufacture of dye intermediates, as a rodent chemosterilant(1), a solvent and a chemical intermediate(2) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC).

In an aerobic aqueous screening test, 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane, incubated for 2 weeks with a sludge inoculum, reached 68% of the theoretical BOD(1). 3-Chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane, seeded with a wastewater effluent, reached 1% of the theoretical BOD in 5 days(2); when retested using an acclimated culture, 0% of the theoretical BOD was reached in 5 days(3). 3-Chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane showed poor acclimation, with only 26% utilization, following a 90 day acclimation period in an anaerobic mixed reactor(4).

An estimated BCF value of 0.2 was calculated for 3-chloro-1,2-dihydroxypropane(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of -0.53(1,SRC) and a recommended regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF value suggests that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
