Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention.
First rinse with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, then remove contaminated clothes and rinse again. Refer for medical attention .
Rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible). Refer immediately for medical attention.
Rinse mouth. Give nothing to drink. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer immediately for medical attention.
Inhalation causes nose and throat irritation, severe coughing, and chest pain due to irritation of air passages; can cause lung edema and loss of consciousness. Ingestion causes nausea, salivation and severe irritation of mouth and stomach. Contact with eyes causes severe irritation and possible edema of the cornea. Contact with skin causes severe irritation. (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 if necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on the 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. /Organic bases/Amines and related compounds/
This chemical is a flammable liquid. Poisonous gases including nitrogen oxides and hydrogen cyanide are produced in fire. Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or foam extinguishers. Vapors are heavier than air and will collect in low areas. Vapors may travel long distances to ignition sources and flashback. Vapors in confined areas may explode when exposed to fire. Containers may explode in fire. Storage containers and parts of containers may rocket great distances, in many directions. If material or contaminated runoff enters waterways, notify downstream users of potentially contaminated waters. Notify local health and fire officials and pollution control agencies. From a secure, explosion-proof location, use water spray to cool exposed containers. If cooling streams are ineffective (venting sound increases in volume and pitch, tank discolors or shows any digns of deforming), withdraw immediately to a secure position.
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic oxides of nitrogen may form in fire. Behavior in Fire: Burning isopropylamine is difficult to control because of the ease of reignition of the vapor. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Containers may explode. (USCG, 1999)
Use water in large amounts, powder, alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.
Evacuate danger area! Remove all ignition sources. Consult an expert! Personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Do NOT wash away into sewer. Collect leaking liquid in sealable containers. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

SRP: Wastewater from contaminant suppression, cleaning of protective clothing/equipment, or contaminated sites should be contained and evaluated for subject chemical or decomposition product concentrations. Concentrations shall be lower than applicable environmental discharge or disposal criteria. Alternatively, pretreatment and/or discharge to a permitted wastewater treatment facility is acceptable only after review by the governing authority and assurance that "pass through" violations will not occur. Due consideration shall be given to remediation worker exposure (inhalation, dermal and ingestion) as well as fate during treatment, transfer and disposal. If it is not practicable to manage the chemical in this fashion, it must be evaluated in accordance with EPA 40 CFR Part 261, specifically Subpart B, in order to determine the appropriate local, state and federal requirements for disposal.
NO open flames, NO sparks and NO smoking. Closed system, ventilation, explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. 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.
Well closed. Fireproof. Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing. Separated from food and feedstuffs. See Chemical Dangers. Store in an area without drain or sewer access.Isopropylamine should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area in tightly sealed containers that are labeled in accordance with OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard [29 CFR 1910.1200]. Containers of isopropylamine should be protected from physical damage and should be stored separately from strong acids, strong oxidizers, perchloryl fluoride, or 1-chloro-1,3- epoxypropane.

Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides and hydrogen cyanide. Reacts with strong oxidants, acids, acid anhydrides and acid chlorides. Reacts violently with nitroparaffins, halogenated hydrocarbons, oxidants and many other substances. Attacks copper and its compounds, lead, zinc and tin.

Flammable liquid. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Combustion by-products include oxides of nitrogen.The vapour is heavier than air and may travel along the ground; distant ignition possible.ISOPROPYLAMINE is a colorless, alkaline liquid, very volatile, moderately toxic, highly flammable. Dangerous fire hazard when exposed to heat, flame, sparks, or strong oxidizers. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of oxides of nitrogen [M. K.]. A mixture of isopropylamine and perchloryl fluoride resulted in an uncontrolled oxidation and/or explosion, [J. Org. Chem., 1980, 45, 4036]. The reaction of 1-chloro-2,3-epoxypropane and the amine and most probably other nitrogen bases, yields a violent exotherm, [Chem. & Ind., 1971, 994].

The substance is corrosive to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Corrosive on ingestion. Inhalation may cause lung oedema, but only after initial corrosive effects on eyes and/or airways have become manifest. If swallowed the substance easily enters the airways and could result in aspiration pneumonitis. Exposure above the OEL could cause death.
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis.
A harmful contamination of the air can be reached very quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
AEROBIC: An aerobic screening test, which utilized activated sludge for inocula, suggests isopropylamine should biodegrade rapidly in the environment(1). Isopropylamine was completely degraded within a 2 day period(1). However, isopropylamine may be toxic to micro-organisms at high concentration(2). After 8 days, an initial concentration of 500 ppm was reduced by 10% in a closed bottle inoculated with a microbial population of 5000 mg/L from activated sludge acclimated to aniline, and maintained at 20 deg C(2). 100 mg/L of isopropylamine was 70-80% degraded afer 28 days in an OECD 301F test(3). This test shows that isopropylamine is readily biodegradable. Isopropylamine showed greater than 95% degradation after 10 days using industrial, non-adapted sludge in a OECD 302B test(3). This test indicates that isopropylamine is inherently biodegradable(3).
An estimated BCF of 0.50 was calculated in fish for isopropylamine(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 0.26(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), provided the compound is not metabolized by the organism(SRC).
The pKa of isopropylamine is 10.6(1), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in the cation form in the environment. Cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(2), suggesting that the mobility in soil will be low(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.
