Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Three tetrachlorobenzene (TCB) congeners (1,2,3,4- 1,2,3,5- and 1,2,4,5-Tetrachlorobenzene were administered daily by gavage to pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats at levels of 50, 100, or 200 mg/kg from day 6-15 of gestation. Residues of all three congeners were found in maternal and fetal tissues but generally the amounts of the 1,2,4,5- isomer were about 100 times higher than the other two.

Possibility of hazardous reactions
Simple aromatic halogenated organic compounds, such as 1,2,3,5-TETRACHLOROBENZENE, are very unreactive. Halogenated organics generally become less reactive as more of their hydrogen atoms are replaced with halogen atoms. Materials in this group may be incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Also, they may be incompatible with many amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides. This chemical may react with oxidizers. (NTP, 1992).
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
In mfr of sodium salt of trichlorophenol, sodium hydroxide, methyl alcohol & tetrachlorobenzene were heated. during heating process, pressure suddenly incr rapidly & explosion occurred. tetrachlorbenzene
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of /hydrogen chloride/.

Persistence and degradability
1,2,3,5-Tetrachlorobenzene was biodegraded by an acclimated anaerobic sediment slurry obtained from the Tsurumi River, Japan(1). The first-order biodegradation rate constant was 0.037 days-1, corresponding to a half-life of about 19 days(1). The half-life of 1,2,3,5-tetrachlorobenzene in sewage sludge amended soil was 45.4 days(2). An enriched microbial culture derived from sediment of the Rhine River reductively dechlorinated 1,2,3,5-tetrachlorobenzene to 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene in 280 days after a lag period of 47 days(3). An enriched microbial culture obtained from sediment of Lake Ketelmeer, Netherlands dechlorinated 250 nmols of 1,2,3,5-tetrachlorobenzene to 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene in 300 hours(4).
Bioaccumulative potential
A measured steady state bioconcentration factor of 1800 was obtained for 1,2,3,5-tetrachlorobenzene using bluegill.
Mobility in soil
Log Koc values of 4.2(1) and 3.2(2) were reported for 1,2,3,5-tetrachlorobenzene. A log Koc value of 3.9 was measured for 1,2,3,5-tetrachlorobenzene in sediment obtained from Ise Bay, Japan(3) According to a recommended classification scheme(4), these Koc values suggest that 1,2,3,5-tetrachlorobenzene has low mobility in soil(SRC).
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
