N-METHYLANILINE ICSC: 0921 N-Methylbenzenamine Monomethylaniline N-Methylphenylamine C7H9N / C6H5NH(CH3) Molecular mass: 107.2 ICSC #    0921 CAS #     100-61-8 RTECS # BY4550000 UN #        2294 EC #         612-015-00-5 Types of Hazard/ Exposure Acute Hazards/ Symptoms Prevention First Aid/ Fire Fighting FIRE Combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. NO open flames. Powder, water spray, foam, carbon dioxide. Explosion Above 79.5°C explosive vapour/air mixtures may be formed. Above 79.5°C use a closed system, ventilation. Exposure PREVENT GENERATION OF MISTS! STRICT HYGIENE! IN ALL CASES CONSULT A DOCTOR!  •Inhalation Blue lips or finger nails. Blue skin. Cough. Dizziness. Headache. Laboured breathing. Sore throat. Local exhaust or breathing protection. Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.  •Skin MAY BE ABSORBED! (Further see Inhalation). Protective gloves. Protective clothing. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap. Refer for medical attention.  •Eyes Face shield, or eye protection in combination with breathing protection. First rinse with plenty of water (remove contact lenses if easily possible).  •Ingestion Abdominal pain. Blue lips or fingernails. Blue skin. Dizziness. Headache. Laboured breathing. Nausea. Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Rinse mouth. Give a slurry of activated charcoal in water to drink. Refer for medical attention. Spillage Disposal Storage Packaging & Labelling Chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Separated from strong oxidants, strong acids, food and feedstuffs. Keep in a well-ventilated room. Store in an area without drain or sewer access. Do not transport with food and feedstuffs.

Physical Dangers: Chemical Dangers: The substance decomposes on heating and on burning producing toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides and aniline. Reacts violently with strong acids and oxidants . Occupational Exposure Limits: TLV: 0.5 ppm as TWA (skin) BEI issued (ACGIH 2006). MAK: 0.5 ppm 2.2 mg/m3 skin absorption (H); Peak limitation category: II(2) Pregnancy risk group: D (DFG 2007). OSHA PEL: TWA 2 ppm (9 mg/m3) skin NIOSH REL: TWA 0.5 ppm (2 mg/m3) skin NIOSH IDLH: 100 ppm See: 100618 Routes of Exposure: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its vapour, by inhalation of its aerosol, through the skin, by ingestion. Inhalation Risk: A harmful contamination of the air can be reached rather quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C. Effects of Short-Term Exposure: The substance may cause effects on the blood , resulting in formation of methaemoglobin. The effects may be delayed. Medical observation is indicated. Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure: Physical Properties Boiling point: 194-196°C Melting point: -57°C Relative density (water = 1): 0.99 Solubility in water: none Vapour pressure, Pa at 20°C: 39.9 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 3.7 Relative density of the vapour/air-mixture at 20°C (air = 1): 1.0 Flash point: 79.5°C c.c. Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 1.7 Environmental Data The substance is harmful to aquatic organisms. N O T E S Specific treatment is necessary in case of poisoning with this substance; the appropriate means with instructions must be available.
