PHYSICAL HAZARDS

Hazard class		Classification	Pictogram Signal word	Hazard statement (code)	Precautionary statement (code)	Rationale for the classification
1	Explosives	Not applicable	- -	-	-	There is a chemical group associated with explosive properties (unsaturated C-C bond) in the molecule, but because it is not 1,2-dienes, it was classified as "Not applicable."
2	Flammable gases (including chemically unstable gases)	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Liquid (GHS definition)
3	Aerosols	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Not aerosol products.
4	Oxidizing gases	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Liquid (GHS definition)
5	Gases under pressure	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Liquid (GHS definition)
6	Flammable liquids	Category 2	Danger	H225	P303+P361+P353 P370+P378 P403+P235 P210 P233 P240 P241 P242 P243 P280 P501	It corresponds to Category 2 from a flash point of 10 deg C [closed-cup ] (MSDS (Sigma-Aldrich) (2012)) <23 deg C and an initial boiling point of 115.5 deg C (CRC (91st, 2010)) >35 deg C.
7	Flammable solids	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Liquid (GHS definition)
8	Self-reactive substances and mixtures	Type G	- -	-	-	There is a chemical group associated with self-reactive properties (unsaturated bond) in the molecule, but because it is classified in Class 3 (II) (UN2309) in UNRTDG, it does not correspond to the hazards of the high est precedence, self-reactive substances and mixtures,. Therefore, it was judged as Type G.
9	Pyrophoric liquids	Not classified	- -	-	-	It is estimated that it does not ignite at normal temperatures from an autoignition temperature of 230 deg C (ICSC (1997)).
10	Pyrophoric solids	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Liquid (GHS definition)
11	Self-heating substances and mixtures	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Test methods applicable to liquid substances are not available.
12	Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases	Not applicable	- -	-	-	The chemical structure of the substance does not contain metals or metalloids (B, Si, P, Ge, As, Se, Sn, Sb, Te, Bi, Po, At).
13	Oxidizing liquids	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Organic compounds containing no oxygen, fluorine or chlorine.
14	Oxidizing solids	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Liquid (GHS definition)
15	Organic peroxides	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Organic compounds containing no bivalent -O-O- structure.
16	Corrosive to metals	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.

HEALTH HAZARDS

Hazard class		Classification	Pictogram Signal word	Hazard statement (code)	Precautionary statement (code)	Rationale for the classification
1	Acute toxicity (Oral)	Not classified	- -	-	-	It was classified as "Not classified" based on an LD50 value of 14,460 mg/kg for rats (RTECS (2000): the original article, American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal: 30, 470, 1969) after confirming the description in the original article.
1	Acute toxicity (Dermal)	Not classified	- -	-	-	It was classified as "Not classified" based on an LD50 value of 10,350 mg/kg for rabbits (RTECS (2000): the original article, American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal: 30, 470, 1969) after confirming the description in the original article.
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases)	Not applicable	- -	-	-	Liquid (GHS definition)
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	There is a report on an LCLo value by 4-hour exposure of 8,000 ppm for rats (mortality 2/6) (RTECS (2000): the original article, American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal: 30, 470, 1969), and it was estimated to correspond to Category 4. However, because the details on test results are unknown, the classification is not possible. Besides, because the test concentration (8,000 ppm) was less than 90% of the saturated vapour pressure concentration (29,868 ppm), a reference value of gas was applied.
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.
2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. Besides, it is described that it is irritating to the skin as short-term exposure effects (ICSC (J) (1993)).
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. Besides, it is described that it is irritating to the eye as short-term exposure effects (ICSC (J) (1993)).
4	Respiratory sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.
4	Skin sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.
6	Carcinogenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.
7	Reproductive toxicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. Besides, it is described that it is irritating to the respiratory tract as short-term exposure effects (ICSC (J) (1993)).
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.
10	Aspiration hazard	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.
