SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Decomposes on burning. This produces toxic and corrosive gases including hydrogen chloride and acetic acid fumes. Reacts with water, moist air and acids. This produces hydrogen chloride. Reacts with bases, oxidants and reducing agents.
Chemical stability
no data available
Possibility of hazardous reactions
FLAMMABLE LIQUID; A DANGEROUS FIRE HAZARD WHEN EXPOSED TO HEAT OR FLAME ...The vapour is heavier than air.ETHYL CHLOROACETATE is a chlorinated ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
Can react vigorously with oxidizing materials. will react with water or steam to produce toxic & corrosive fumes. vigorous reaction with sodium cyanide.
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomp, it emits highly toxic fumes of /hydrogen chloride/.

Persistence and degradability
no data available
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated for ethyl chloroacetate(SRC), using a log Kow of 0.94(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.
Mobility in soil
The Koc of ethyl chloroacetate is estimated as 12(SRC), using a log Kow of 0.94(1). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that ethyl chloroacetate is expected to have very high mobility in soil.
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
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.
