Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap. Refer for medical attention .
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Rinse mouth. Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Give a slurry of activated charcoal in water to drink. Refer for medical attention . Rest.
Inhalation causes tearing, burning of the eyes and difficulty in breathing; high concentrations may lead to development of acute pulmonary edema after latencies of 8 hrs. to several days; possible systemic manifestations include agitation, coma, contraction of pupils of eyes, loss of reflexes. External contact causes irritation of skin and intense irritation of eyes. Ingestion causes agitation, coma, contraction of pupils of eye, loss of reflexes. (USCG, 1999)
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. Ketones and related compounds
Use water spray, powder, foam, carbon dioxide.
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating hydrogen chloride may form. Behavior in Fire: Unburned material may become volatile and cause severe eye irritation. (USCG, 1999)
Use water spray, powder, foam, carbon dioxide. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.
Personal protection: self-contained breathing apparatus. Sweep spilled substance into covered sealable, plastic containers. If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Carefully collect remainder. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

2-chloroacetophenone is a white crystalline solid. Denser than water and insoluble in water. Hence sinks in water. A lachrymator: vapors are very irritating to the eyes. Has a floral odor. Used as a riot control agent.

Decomposes on burning. This produces toxic and corrosive fumes including hydrogen chloride.
Chloroacetophenone (CN) is incompatible with strong oxidants.Chloroacetophenone (CN) reacts slowly with metals, causing mild corrosion.Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas.

Combustible.Vapors may be heavier than air. They will spread along the ground and collect and stay in poorly-ventilated, low-lying, or confined areas (e.g., sewers, basements, and tanks).Hazardous concentrations may develop quickly in enclosed, poorly-ventilated, or low-lying areas. Keep out of these areas. Stay upwind.2-CHLOROACETOPHENONE reacts slowly with metals causing mild corrosion.

No information is available on the reproductive or developmental effects of 2-chloroacetophenone in humans or animals.
Lachrymation. The substance is severely irritating to the eyes. The substance is irritating to the skin and respiratory tract. Inhalation of the vapour or aerosol may cause lung oedema. See Notes. The effects may be delayed. Medical observation is indicated.
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis. Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization.
A harmful contamination of the air will be reached rather slowly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
ANAEROBIC: 2-Chloroacetophenone was reductively transformed in anaerobic sediments via electron transfer to form acetophenone and via hydride transfer to form 2-chloro-1-phenylethanol(1). An increase in temperature decreases the rate of degradation(1).
An estimated BCF of 2 was calculated in fish for 2-chloroacetophenone(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 1.93(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of 2-chloroacetophenone can be estimated to be 100(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that 2-chloroacetophenone is expected to have high mobility in soil.

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.
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.

The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort.Rest and medical observation are therefore essential.The odour warning when the exposure limit value is exceeded is insufficient.Do NOT take working clothes home.
