METHYL PHOSPHONOTHIOIC DICHLORIDE, [ANHYDROUS]

A colorless liquid with a pungent odor. Noncombustible. Toxic by inhalation. Denser than water. Corrosive to metal and tissue.

• Water-Reactive

Reacts with water to form hydrochloric acid, reaction may be violent.

Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating hydrogen chloride, sulfur dioxide and other fumes may be formed in fire. (USCG, 1999)

Inhalation causes irritation of nose and throat; effects are quite similar to those of phosgene. Ingestion causes irritation of mouth and stomach. Delayed, painful eye irritation may occur from exposure to vapor; liquid causes severe irritation. Contact with skin causes irritation and burns. (USCG, 1999)

METHYL PHOSPHONOTHIOIC DICHLORIDE is water reactive. Incompatible with strong oxidizing agents, alcohols, bases( including amines). May react vigorously or explosively if mixed with diisopropyl ether or other ethers in the presence of trace amounts of metal salts [J. Haz. Mat., 1981, 4, 291].

• Sulfonates, Phosphonates, and Thiophosphonates, Organic
• Acyl Halides, Sulfonyl Halides, and Chloroformates

Use caution: Liquids with this reactive group classification have been known to react with the absorbents listed below.

• Cellulose-Based Absorbents
• Mineral-Based & Clay-Based Absorbents
• Dirt/Earth

Excerpt from 154 [Substances - Toxic and/or Corrosive (Non-Combustible)]:

IMMEDIATE PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE: Isolate spill or leak area in all directions for at least 50 meters (150 feet) for liquids and at least 25 meters (75 feet) for solids.

SPILL: Increase the immediate precautionary measure distance, in the downwind direction, as necessary.

FIRE: If tank, rail car or tank truck is involved in a fire, ISOLATE for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions; also, consider initial evacuation for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions. (ERG, 2020)

Excerpt from 154 [Substances - Toxic and/or Corrosive (Non-Combustible)]:

SMALL FIRE: Dry chemical, CO2 or water spray.

LARGE FIRE: Dry chemical, CO2, alcohol-resistant foam or water spray. If it can be done safely, move undamaged containers away from the area around the fire. Dike runoff from fire control for later disposal.

FIRE INVOLVING TANKS OR CAR/TRAILER LOADS: Fight fire from maximum distance or use unmanned master stream devices or monitor nozzles. Do not get water inside containers. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tank. ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in fire. (ERG, 2020)

Excerpt from 154 [Substances - Toxic and/or Corrosive (Non-Combustible)]:

ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames) from immediate area. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas. Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers. DO NOT GET WATER INSIDE CONTAINERS. (ERG, 2020)

Use extreme care when handling this compound. Avoid any contact with liquid or vapor. Rubber or neoprene gloves; respiratory protection; goggles (USCG, 1999)

No information available.

Get medical attention after all exposures to this compound.

INHALATION: remove victim to fresh air; alert physician to delayed effects similar to those of phosgene.

INGESTION: give large amount of water and induce vomiting.

EYES: flush with water for at least 15 min.

SKIN: flush with water. (USCG, 1999)
