It is written that mortality with 75 ppm of exposure level: 4/6 in 4-hour inhalation exposure test employing rats (Patty (5th, 2001), and LC50 value is considered to be <75 ppm. Since saturated vapor pressure level of this substance (25degC)is 122.89 ppm, it was classified into Category 1 by applying the gas standard.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to lack of data

P321: Specific treatment (see ... on this label).
P362: Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
The irritation of Amines was evaluated as Grade 1-10 in the 24 hour skin irritation test with rabbits and this substance is presumed to be stimulating, because there is a description, "Grade 4" (Patty (5th, 2001)), although it is not a datum of 4-hour exposure. Moreover, since there are descriptions, "It has skin irritation" (Patty (5th, 2001, ICSC (2005)), "burns in the skin" and "stimulating" (HSDB (2002), it was classified in Category 2, although reversibility is not unknown.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Category 2 Warning H319: Causes serious eye irritation P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
P337+P313: If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
Although there is description that when Grade 1-10 estimates the irritation of amines in the eye irritation test employing rabbits, this substance shows "Grade 1: slight necrosis when 0.5 mLof non-diluted substance is instilled in the eye."(Patty (5th, 2001) effect), the level of irritation is unknown. Moreover, there is a description of "Almost all aliphatic Amins has eye irritation" (Patty (5th, 2001)), "It has serious influence and may cause dacryorrhea, conjunctivitis, and cornea dropsy," "It has irritation" (HSDB (2002)), and "It has a slight irritation."(ICSC (2005)). Although the level of irritation ranges from severe to mild, since this substance was a skin irritation substance, it was classified into Category 2.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - Classification is not possible since there is no data.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - Although there is a description that "skin sensitization is caused" (Patty (5th, 2001), HSDB (2002)), classification is not possible because of unknown details and insufficient data.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - - Classification is not possible because there is no data of in vivo examination. In addition, there is a description of "negative" in the in vitro mutagenicity test (Ames test employing a Salmonella typhimurium) (NTP DB (Access on November 2008)).
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - Since no evaluation by major international evaluation agencies is made and there is no data, classification is not possible.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to lack of data
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Category 3 (Respiratory tract irritation) Warning H335: May cause respiratory irritation (respiratory tract irritation) P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
P403+P233: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed.
P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P271: Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
It was classified into Category 3 (Respiratory tract irritation) based on a description that "the lung irritation is deduced from decrease in a breathing rates" by the test which calculates RD50 value (50% breathing rates inhibitory concentrations) in inhalation exposures employing a mouse (HSDB (2002)). In addition, Patty (5th, 2001) has descriptions that aliphatic amines "showed very strong stimulus property and will stimulate mucosa and airway when steamy exposure of the animal is carried out by high concentrations", and that "a single dose in concentrations proximate for deaths causes tracheitis, bronchitis, pneumonia and lung edemas. "Moreover, the oral study on this article using the mammal (species unknown) has a description of "lethargy, agitation" (RTECS (2008)), and another description that "headache, nausea, vomit, dizziness, agitation and convulsion are caused" (HSFS (1999)).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 2 (central nervous system) Warning H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (central nervous system) P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
In the 19-day inhalation exposure test to male and female rats, "nasal irritation, disquiet, incoordination and trembling were observed" (Patty (5th, 2001), HSDB (2002)). Although these symptoms were observed within the limits of the guidance value of Category 1, it was classified into Category 2 (central nervous systems) since the OECD TG compliance and GLP were unknown. Moreover, although there is the description that "tracheitis, bronchitis, pneumonia and lung edema are caused by repeated inhalation exposure to sublethal concentration of aliphatic amines" (Patty (5th, 2001)), it is not adopted to categorize since the period and the concentration of exposure are unknown. In addition, "there are reports of central nervous system irritation" (Patty (5th, 2001) and (HSDB (2002)).
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to lack of data

It was classified into Category 2 from 48 hours EC50=8mg/L of the crustacea (Daphnia magna) (AQUIRE (2008)).
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) Category 2 - H411: Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects P273: Avoid release to the environment.

Since acute toxicity was Category 2 and there were no rapid degradability (not readily degradable, the decomposition by BOD: 2% (Existing Chemical Safety Inspections Data (2002)), it was classified into Category 2.
