TIH (Toxic Inhalation Hazard) - Term used to describe gases and volatile liquids that are toxic when inhaled. Some are TIH materials themselves, e.g., chlorine, and some release TIH gases when spilled in water, e.g., chlorosilanes. [ERG 2016].

For small fires, use dry chemical or carbon dioxide.

For large fires, use water spray, fog, or regular foam. Move containers from the fire area if it is possible to do so without risk to personnel. Do not get water inside containers. Damaged cylinders should be handled only by specialists.

For fire involving tanks, fight the fire from maximum distance or use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after the fire is out. Do not direct water at the source of the leak or at safety devices; icing may occur. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tanks. Always stay away from tanks engulfed in fire.

Run-off from fire control may cause pollution.

In most cases, cyanogen chloride is used in the gas phase immediately after preparation. Relatively small amounts are condensed and stored in gas containers as liquids. Steel cylinders, which must meet specific requirements in each country, can be used for shipment. The condensed and bottled Cyanogen chloride must be very pure; moreover, it must be mixed with a stabilizing agent (generally sodium pyrophosphate) to inhibit exothermic polymerization caused by impurities.

Antidotes to cyanide poisoning include hydroxocobalamin and sodium nitrite, which release the cyanide from the cytochrome system, and rhodanase, which is an enzyme occurring naturally in mammals that combines serum cyanide with thiosulfate, producing comparatively harmless thiocyanate. Oxygen therapy can also be administered. (L97)

Exposure to high levels of cyanide for a short time harms the brain and heart and can even cause coma, seizures, apnea, cardiac arrest and death. Chronic inhalation of cyanide causes breathing difficulties, chest pain, vomiting, blood changes, headaches, and enlargement of the thyroid gland. Skin contact with cyanide salts can irritate and produce sores. (L96, L97)

The environmental fate of cyanogen chloride is largely site specific in that the biotic and abiotic characteristics of soil and water greatly influence the ability of this compound to persist, absorb, degrade, dissociate, and complex(1). However, because of its volatility and rapid rate of hydrolysis, cyanogen chloride is considered a nonpersistent agent(2,3).

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Data on cyanogen chloride fate in soil were not available; however, it is highly volatile and hydrolyzes rapidly in the environment(1).

AQUATIC FATE: Cyanogen chloride is extremely volatile from water surfaces and will hydrolyze rapidly(1) with half-lives ranging from 1 minute 45 seconds to 10 hours at 5 °C in ambient waters(2).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), cyanogen chloride, which has a vapor pressure of 1.22X10+3 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a gas in the ambient atmosphere. Cyanogen chloride does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(3) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation.

Organic nitriles decompose into cyanide ions both in vivo and in vitro. Consequently the primary mechanism of toxicity for organic nitriles is their production of toxic cyanide ions or hydrogen cyanide. Cyanide is an inhibitor of cytochrome c oxidase in the fourth complex of the electron transport chain (found in the membrane of the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells). It complexes with the ferric iron atom in this enzyme. The binding of cyanide to this cytochrome prevents transport of electrons from cytochrome c oxidase to oxygen. As a result, the electron transport chain is disrupted and the cell can no longer aerobically produce ATP for energy. Tissues that mainly depend on aerobic respiration, such as the central nervous system and the heart, are particularly affected. Cyanide is also known produce some of its toxic effects by binding to catalase, glutathione peroxidase, methemoglobin, hydroxocobalamin, phosphatase, tyrosinase, ascorbic acid oxidase, xanthine oxidase, succinic dehydrogenase, and Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase. Cyanide binds to the ferric ion of methemoglobin to form inactive cyanmethemoglobin. (L97)

P033; As stipulated in 40 CFR 261.33, when cyanogen chloride, as a commercial chemical product or manufacturing chemical intermediate or an off-specification commercial chemical product or a manufacturing chemical intermediate, becomes a waste, it must be managed according to federal and/or state hazardous waste regulations. Also defined as a hazardous waste is any container or inner liner used to hold this waste or any residue, contaminated soil, water, or other debris resulting from the cleanup of a spill, into water or on dry land, of this waste. Generators of small quantities of this waste may qualify for partial exclusion from hazardous waste regulations (40 CFR 261.5(e)).

D003; A solid waste containing cyanogen chloride may or may not become characterized as a hazardous waste when subjected to the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure listed in 40 CFR 261.24, and if so characterized, must be managed as a hazardous waste.

This action promulgates standards of performance for equipment leaks of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) in the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI). The intended effect of these standards is to require all newly constructed, modified, and reconstructed SOCMI process units to use the best demonstrated system of continuous emission reduction for equipment leaks of VOC, considering costs, non air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements. Cyanogen chloride is produced, as an intermediate or final product, by process units covered under this subpart.

/It is prepared/ by action of chlorine on hydrogen cyanide.

Cyanogen chloride is produced by action of chlorine on moist sodium cyanide suspended in carbon tetrachloride and kept cooled to -3 °C, followed by distillation.

The preparation of the industrially important ClCN has been developed extensively; the synthetic pathways are as follows: 1) Electrolysis of an aqueous solution of HCN and NH4Cl. 2) Reaction of complex cyanide salts (e.g., Na2(Zn(CN)4)) with chlorine below 20 °C. 3) Formation of ClCN from cyanide salts (mostly NaCN) and chlorine in an exothermic reaction; in a continuous process, sprayed aqueous NaCN solution is contacted with chlorine, and the reaction heat evaporates the ClCN. 4) Processes involving hydrogen cyanide and chlorine as the most convenient starting materials; the reaction is carried out in aqueous solution ... in organic and inorganic solvents, and in the gas phase. To avoid the byproduct HCl, attempts have been made to reoxidize HCl to chlorine with oxygen and hydrogen peroxide in catalyzed reactions. 5) Chlorinolysis of cyanogen in the gas phase at 300-600 °C in the presence of a catalyst. 6) Pyrolysis of cyanuric chloride at 600-900 °C in the presence of a charcoal catalyst. and 7) High-temperature syntheses based on elemental chlorine, nitrogen, and carbon. Usually, these processes lead to impure ClCN; therefore, in many cases the product must be purified before further use.

Cyanogen chloride is an intermediate in the detoxification of cyanide-containing wastewater with sodium hypochlorite solutions; therefore, the cyanogen halide must be removed immediately by appropriate hydrolysis.

Cyanogen chloride has been identified as a by-product of aqueous chlorination of purines and pyrimidines as a result of chlorination of potable water and wastewater.
