| | Ethyl chlorothioformate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | clear yellow or grey-greenish to purple liquid | | Chemical Properties | Ethyl chlorothioformate is a flammable clear
yellow or amber-colored liquid. Pungent, penetrating odor. | | General Description | An amber-colored liquid with a pungent penetrating odor. Flash point 125°F. Very toxic by inhalation. Corrosive to metals and tissue. Denser than water. Vapors heavier than air. | | Air & Water Reactions | Flammable. Insoluble in water. On contact with moisture Ethyl chlorothioformate produces highly corrosive and toxic fumes of hydrogen chloride gas. | | Reactivity Profile | Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors and toxic gases, such as sulfur oxides, hydrogen chloride, and carbon monoxide, may be formed when involved in fire. | | Health Hazard | Exposure can cause irritation of eyes, nose and throat. | | Potential Exposure | Used for making other chemicals. A
pharmaceutical intermediate | | Shipping | UN2826 Ethyl chlorothioformate, Hazard Class: 8;
Labels: 8-Corrosive material, 6.1-Poison Inhalation Hazard,
3-Flammable liquid; Inhalation Hazard Zone B | | Incompatibilities | Corrosive to metals. Flammable vapors
may form explosive mixture with air. Contact with moisture releases highly corrosive and toxic hydrogen chloride
gas. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids,
oxoacids, and epoxides. | | Waste Disposal | Consult with environmental
regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal
practices. Generators of waste containing this contaminant
(≥100 kg/mo) must conform with EPA regulations governing storage, transportation, treatment, and waste disposal.
Controlled incineration (oxides of nitrogen are removed
from the effluent gas by scrubbers and/or thermal devices) |
