SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

Decomposes on heating and on burning. This produces toxic and corrosive fumes including hydrogen chloride and phosgene. Reacts slowly with water. This produces hydrochloric acid. Reacts violently with oxidants and powdered metals. This generates fire and explosion hazard. Attacks aluminium and many plastics.

Chemical stability

no data available

Possibility of hazardous reactions

FLAMMABLE, DANGEROUS FIRE RISK.The vapour is heavier than air and may travel along the ground; distant ignition possible. As a result of flow, agitation, etc., electrostatic charges can be generated.BUTYL CHLORIDE is incompatible with oxidizing agents and strong bases. Reacts with aluminum powder, magnesium, liquid oxygen, potassium and sodium (NTP, 1992). Emits phosgene gas when heated to decomposition. May be sensitive to heat.

Conditions to avoid

no data available

Incompatible materials

no data available

Hazardous decomposition products

Dangerous; when heated to decomposition, emits highly toxic fumes of phosgene.

SECTION 12: Ecological information

Toxicity

  • Toxicity to fish: LC50 - Danio rerio (previous name: Brachydanio rerio) - 71.4 mg/L - 96 h.
  • Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: EC50 - Daphnia magna - 452 mg/L - 48 h.
  • Toxicity to algae: EC50 - Desmodesmus subspicatus (previous name: Scenedesmus subspicatus) - > 450 mg/L - 72 h.
  • Toxicity to microorganisms: EC50 - activated sludge of a predominantly domestic sewage - > 1 000 mg/L - 3 h. Remarks:Respiration rate.

Persistence and degradability

Microbial enzymes and pure cultures have been reported that are capable of degrading n-butyl chloride under aerobic conditions(2). Limited data from screening studies suggest that n-butyl chloride biodegrades slowly under aerobic conditions. When incubated with activated sludges from 3 municipal treatment plants, 2.6% of the n-butyl chloride (500 mg/l) was oxidized after 24 hr(1). At the concentration used, n-butyl chloride was toxic to 1 of the 3 sludges(1). Another screening test using sewage seed and much lower concentrations of n-butyl chloride (1 ppm) resulted in 10% of the theoretical BOD being consumed in 1.4 days(3).

Bioaccumulative potential

Using the log octanol/water partition coefficient for n-butyl chloride, 2.64(1), one estimates a BCF of 60 using a recommended regression equation(2,SRC). Therefore, n-butyl chloride will not bioconcentrate in fish and aquatic organisms(2)

Mobility in soil

Using the water solubility for n-butyl chloride, 1100 mg/l(1), the Koc can be estimated to be 93 and 102 using two recommended regression equations(2,SRC). These estimates indicate that n-butyl chloride will have high mobility in soil(3).

Other adverse effects

no data available

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations

Disposal methods

Product

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.

Contaminated packaging

Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
