Move the victim into fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and consult a doctor immediately. Do not use mouth to mouth resuscitation if the victim ingested or inhaled the chemical.
Take off contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a doctor.
Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.
Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.

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. Dinitrophenol and Related Compounds

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Store the container tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Store apart from foodstuff containers or incompatible materials.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).
Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

AEROBIC: Biodegradation of the analogous compound 2-methyl-4,6-dinitrophenol (also known as 4,6-dinitro-o-cresol) is probably its main removal process from agricultural soils(1); this analogous compound usually disappears from soil within a few weeks to 2 months when applied at normal field rates(1); in soil, the nitro groups are reduced to amino groups(1); soil half-lives are reported to range from 0.1-15 days(2). Biodegradation half-lives of the analogous compound 2-methyl-4,6-dinitrophenol (also known as 4,6-dinito-o-cresol) in natural water are reported as 7 (aerobic) and 2.8 (anaerobic) days(3); half-lives in water have been reported as 3-5 weeks at 20 deg C(2).
An estimated BCF of 15 was calculated for 4-methyl-2,6-dinitrophenol(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 2.27(1) and a regression-derived equation(1). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low.
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of 4-methyl-2,6-dinitrophenol can be estimated to be 750(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that 4-methyl-2,6-dinitrophenol is expected to have low mobility in soil. However, the pKa of 4-methyl-2,6-dinitrophenol is 4.23(3), which indicates that this compound will exist primarily as an anion in moist soil surfaces and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4). Field studies have shown that the anionic form of the analogous compound 2-methyl-4,6-dinitrophenol is more mobile in soil(5); therefore, the anionic form of 4-methyl-2,6-dinitrophenol may have high to moderate mobility in soil(SRC).

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.
