· CALL 911. Then call emergency response telephone number on shipping paper. If shipping paper not available or no answer, refer to appropriate telephone number listed on the inside back cover.

· ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames) from immediate area.

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.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: If dimethylcarbamoyl chloride is released to soil, it will be expected to rapidly hydrolyze if the soil is moist, based upon a half-life of 54 sec at 14 °C(SRC) calculated from a measured hydrolysis rate constant(1). Since it rapidly hydrolyzes, adsorption to and volatilization from moist soil are not expected to be significant processes, although no data specifically regarding the fate of dimethylcarbamoyl chloride in soil were located(SRC). The potential for volatilization of dimethylcarbamoyl chloride from dry soil surfaces may exist(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 1.95 mm Hg(2). Biodegradation should not be an important process since hydrolysis is such a rapid process(SRC).

AQUATIC FATE: If dimethylcarbamoyl chloride is released to water, it will be expected to rapidly hydrolyze, based upon a half-life of 54 sec at 14 °C(SRC) calculated from a measured hydrolysis rate constant(1). The products of hydrolysis are dimethylamine, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen chloride(2). Since it rapidly hydrolyzes, bioconcentration, volatilization, and adsorption to sediment and suspended solids are not expected to be significant processes(SRC). No data were located concerning biodegradation, but dimethylcarbamoyl chloride probably abiotically degrades via hydrolysis significantly faster than via biodegradation(SRC).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), dimethylcarbamoyl chloride, which has a vapor pressure of 1.95 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere(SRC). Vapor-phase dimethylcarbamoyl chloride 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 24 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 16X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) determined using a structure estimation method(3). The hydrolysis half-life for dimethylcarbamoyl chloride is 54 sec(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 12.76X10-3 sec-1(4), which suggests that vapor-phase dimethylcarbamoyl chloride will rapidly hydrolyze in fog and rain(SRC).

ONE CASE OF EYE IRRITATION & ONE OF LIVER DISTURBANCES HAVE BEEN OBSERVED IN WORKERS EXPOSED TO DIMETHYLCARBAMOYL CHLORIDE.

NO CHROMOSOMAL ABERRATION WAS REPORTED IN 10 WORKERS EXPOSED TO THIS CMPD FOR 4-17 YEARS.

AN ESTIMATE OF TOTAL NUMBER OF WORKERS AT RISK OF DMCC EXPOSURE, MADE IN 1976, WAS < 200. THIS DID NOT INCLUDE POTENTIAL EXPOSURES TO DMCC FORMED IN SIDE REACTIONS DURING THE SYNTHESIS OF OTHER PRODUCTS. NO CASES OF HUMAN CANCER ATTRIBUTABLE TO DMCC HAVE BEEN REPORTED. DUE TO HIGH TOXICITY, HOWEVER, EXPOSURES HAVE APPARENTLY BEEN WELL CONTROLLED.

NO CANCER DEATHS (OUT OF A TOTAL OF SIX DEATHS) OR X-RAY INDICATIONS OF LUNG CANCER WERE REPORTED IN AN INVESTIGATION OF 39 DMCC PRODUCTION WORKERS...26 PROCESSING WORKERS & 42 EX-WORKERS, AGED 17-65 & EXPOSED FOR PERIODS RANGING FROM 6 MO TO 12 YR.

Chromosomal analysis of peripheral lymphocytes from 10 people who had been occupationally exposed to dimethylcarbamoyl chloride (and diethylcarbamoyl chloride) for periods ranging from 4 to 17 years showed differences in the frequency of chromosomal aberrations (inclusive and exclusive gaps), when compared with a control group of 10 people matched for age, although statistical evaluation revealed no significant increase.

U097; As stipulated in 40 CFR 261.33, when dimethylcarbamoyl 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 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).

Listed as a hazardous air pollutant (HAP) generally known or suspected to cause serious health problems. The Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990, directs EPA to set standards requiring major sources to sharply reduce routine emissions of toxic pollutants. EPA is required to establish and phase in specific performance based standards for all air emission sources that emit one or more of the listed pollutants. Dimethyl carbamoyl chloride is included on this list.

Persons in charge of vessels or facilities are required to notify the National Response Center (NRC) immediately, when there is a release of this designated hazardous substance, in an amount equal to or greater than its reportable quantity of 1 lb or 0.454 kg. The toll free number of the NRC is (800) 424-8802; In the Washington D.C. metropolitan area (202) 426-2675. The rule for determining when notification is required is stated in 40 CFR 302.4 (section IV. D.3.b).
