Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Clear colorless to slightly yellow viscous liquid. | [Reactivity Profile]
2,3-DIBROMO-1-PROPANOL(96-13-9) is incompatible with strong oxidizers. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Water soluble. | [Potential Exposure]
Chemical intermediate used to pro-
duce insecticides, pharmaceuticals, and flame retardants. | [Fire Hazard]
This chemical is probably combustible. | [First aid]
kin Contact: Flood all areas of body that have
contacted the substance with water. Don’t wait to remove
contaminated clothing; do it under the water stream. Use
soap to help assure removal. Isolate contaminated clothing
when removed to prevent contact by others. Eye Contact:
Remove any contact lenses at once. Flush eyes well with
copious quantities of water or normal saline for at least
20 30 minutes. Seek medical attention. Inhalation: Leave
contaminated area immediately; breathe fresh air. Proper
respiratory protection must be supplied to any rescuers.
If coughing, difficult breathing or any other symptoms
develop, seek medical attention at once, even if symptoms
develop many hours after exposure. Ingestion: If convul-
sions are not present, give a glass or two of water or milk
to dilute the substance. Assure that the person’s airway is
unobstructed and contact a hospital or poison center imme-
diately for advice on whether or not to induce vomiting. | [Shipping]
UN2810 Toxic liquids, organic, n.o.s., Hazard
Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials, Technical
Name Required. | [Incompatibilities]
Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates,
nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine,
bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explo-
sions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases,
strong acids, oxoacids, and epoxides. | [Chemical Properties]
2,3-Dibromo-1-propanol is a clear, colorless
to slightly yellow thick liquid. | [Chemical Properties]
clear colorless liquid | [Waste Disposal]
Use a licensed professional
waste disposal service to dispose of this material. Dissolve
or mix the material with a combustible solvent and burn
in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner
and scrubber. All federal, state, and local environmental
regulations must be observed. | [Uses]
Synthetic building block, fire-proofing agent, and carcinogen. | [Uses]
2,3-Dibromo-1-propanol is a metabolite of the flame retardant tris(2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate (T775560), previously shown to be a mutagen and carcinogen in experimental animals. | [Uses]
The major use of 2,3-dibromo-1-propanol is as an intermediate in the production of flame retardants, insecticides, and pharmaceuticals, and the chemical itself has been used as a flame retardant. 2,3-Dibromo-1-propanol was used in the production of tris(2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate, a flame retardant used in children’s clothing and other products (HSDB 2009). Tris(2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate was banned from use in sleepwear in 1977 by the Consumer Product Safety Commission after studies showed that it causedcancer in experimental animals (NTP 1993, HSDB 2009). | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 30, p. 587, 1965 DOI: 10.1021/jo01013a069 | [Carcinogenicity]
2,3-Dibromo-1-propanol is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in experimental animals. |
