SYMPTOMS: Symptoms of exposure to this compound may include cyanosis (blue-black lips and tongue; gray skin) due to methemoglobinemia, headache, nausea and vomiting, dry throat, confusion, dizziness, tinnitus, weakness, irritability, drowsiness, coma, seizures, hypotension, fainting, joint pains, hemolytic anemia, jaundice, hepatic and renal damage, and bloody urine. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This compound can be absorbed through the skin. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes. (NTP, 1992)
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. Aniline and related compounds

AEROBIC: Soil enrichment cultures extracted from soils that had been treated with herbicides (such as linuron and metobromuron) over multiple years were able to readily degrade the herbicides and their degradation products (4-bromoaniline was the degradation product from metobromuron)(1); untreated control soil samples from the same location did not show any degradation activity(1). In biodegradation studies using Elbe River water and a testfilter methodology, 4-bromoaniline had a mean degradation rate of 0.67/hr (half-life of about 1 hour)(2); degradation rate in control samples was only 0.007/hr (half-life of 99 hours)(2).
An estimated BCF of 14 was calculated in fish for 4-bromoaniline(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.26(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).
Soil adsorption studies using four silt loam soils and a 2-hour adsorption period determined a mean log Kom (K organic matter) of 1.72 (which corresponds to a log Koc of 1.96 and Koc of 91 for 4-bromoaniline(1). A Koc of 217.9 was determined in sorption studies using a calcareous Spanish soil(2); manual addition of dissolved organic carbon (from peat or tannic acid) was found to increase 4-bromoanline adsorption on soil(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these Koc values suggests that 4-bromoaniline is expected to have moderate to high mobility in soil. The pKa of 4-bromoaniline is 3.86(4), indicating that this compound is a weak base and will exist predominantly in the non-ionized form in the environment. However, anilines are expected to bind strongly to humus or organic matter in soils due to the high reactivity of the aromatic amino group(5,6), suggesting that mobility may be much lower in some soils(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.
