Inhalation: Move affected person to fresh air, keep warm and at rest, seek medical attention if respiratory symptoms persist
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing immediately, wash affected area with soap and lots of water for at least 15 minutes, obtain medical help, launder clothing before reuse
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes carefully with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes holding eyelids open, remove contact lenses if easy, urgently get medical aid
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting, rinse mouth with water, immediately contact a doctor or poison center, never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person
Most Important Symptoms: Chemical burns, severe irritation, risk of delayed respiratory effects
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray (for cooling only)
Unsuitable Media: Direct water jet (spreads flammable material)
Hazards from Combustion: Evolution of toxic fumes like nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and ammonia
Protective Equipment: Full protective clothing, self-contained breathing apparatus
Firefighting Instructions: Evacuate area, cool containers with water, avoid runoff entering drains, fight fire from a safe distance
Special Conditions: Sealed containers may rupture during heat exposure
Personal Precautions: Wear gloves, goggles, and chemical-resistant clothing. Ventilate contaminated area. Avoid breathing vapors. Remove all ignition sources.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spillage from entering drains, soil, or surface water. Notify authorities if large amounts are released.
Cleanup Methods: Absorb with inert material like sand or vermiculite, collect into chemical waste container, wash spill site after pick-up.
Decontamination: Flush contaminated surface with copious water, dispose of washings as hazardous waste.
Handling: Work in a chemical fume hood if possible, avoid inhalation, prevent skin and eye contact. Use spark-proof tools and eliminate sources of ignition.
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands thoroughly after handling, remove contaminated clothing, do not eat, drink, or smoke while working with N-Amylmethylamine.
Storage: Keep container tightly closed in cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from heat, open flames, and incompatibles. Store in original packaging. Segregate from oxidizers, acids, and moisture-sensitive materials.
Condition Requirements: Protect from direct sunlight, inert atmosphere preferred for long-term storage
Exposure Limits: No OSHA or ACGIH data, minimize exposure as much as possible
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust or fume hood for ventilation, explosion-proof equipment in flammable locations
Personal Protection: Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile), splash-proof safety goggles, face shield for large volumes, flame-resistant lab coat, closed footwear
Respiratory Protection: NIOSH-approved respirator for vapors or in low-ventilation spaces
Environmental Protection: Use secondary containment trays, monitor for vapor leaks
Appearance: Colorless to pale yellow liquid
Odor: Strong, fish-like amine odor
Boiling Point: 112–114°C (233–237°F)
Melting Point: -60°C to -64°C (-76°F to -83°F)

Vapor Pressure: 10 mmHg @ 27°C
Density: 0.77–0.79 g/mL @ 25°C
Viscosity: Low
pH: Alkaline
Evaporation Rate: Moderate
Stability: Stable under recommended storage conditions, sensitive to air and moisture upon long exposure
Reactivity: Vigorous with strong oxidizers, acids. Reacts with acid chlorides, anhydrides, and some halogenated hydrocarbons.
Decomposition: Produces toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and ammonia when burned or decomposed thermally
Polymerization: Not likely to polymerize
Incompatibilities: Strong acids, acid chlorides, oxidizing agents, peroxides
Likely Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, skin absorption, eye contact, ingestion
Acute Toxicity: LD50 (oral, rat): 400 mg/kg (estimate based on similar amines). LC50 (inhalation): Not established.
Skin: Causes burns, ulcers, and possibly secondary infection
Eyes: Causes severe irritation, possible corneal damage, risk of impaired vision
Inhalation: Burns respiratory tract, risk of pulmonary edema
Ingestion: Corrosive injury to mouth, throat, stomach
Chronic Toxicity: May cause dermatitis and sensitization due to repeated exposure, no comprehensive studies on carcinogenicity or reproductive effects
Other Effects: Related amines show potential neurotoxicity with chronic exposure
Ecotoxicity: Harmful to aquatic life, fish and daphnia EC50 values for related aliphatic amines show 10–100 mg/L range
Persistence: Probably biodegradable, but persistence likely in low-oxygen or poorly managed sites
Mobility: Readily migrates in soil and water, vapor can escape easily
Bioaccumulation: Not expected to bioaccumulate significantly
Other Hazards: Alters water pH, may lead to fish kills through alkalinity increase
Disposal Methods: Dispose through licensed chemical waste contractor. Use incineration with afterburner and scrubber preferred, solid adsorbent waste to secure landfill.
Container Cleanout: Triple-rinse with water, collect rinsate as chemical waste
Precautions: Do not discharge to sewers or surface waters. Avoid dust, vapors, and spills during transfer.
