Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
SYMPTOMS: Symptoms of exposure to this compound may include irritation of the skin and severe irritation of the eyes. It reduces the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood and causes shortness of breath by formation of methemoglobin It can cause an allergic skin reaction, rash, chloracne, cyanosis, weakness, tearing, and blurring of vision. Higher exposures can cause abnormal liver an kidney function. Skin permeation can lead to systemic toxicity. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This compound can cause skin irritation and severe eye irritation. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of chlorine and nitrogen oxides. Thermal decomposition may produce carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and hydrogen chloride gas. It is highly toxic when absorbed through the skin, swallowed or when vapors from the heated material are inhaled. (NTP, 1992)

Persistence and degradability
3,4-dichloroaniline (dca), a biodegradation intermediate of several herbicides, is mineralized in soil only very slowly. in enrichment cultures, dca failed to serve as the sole substrate, but analog enrichment yielded a pseudomonas putida strain that, in presence of unchlorinated analog substrates, mineralized dca with release of (14)co2 and cl-. mass spectrometric identification of the key biodegradation intermediates (3,4-dichloromuconate, 3-chlorobutenolide and 3-chlorolevulinic acid) revealed that dca biodegradation occurred through 4,5-dichlorocatechol, 3,4-dichloromuconate, 3-chlorobutenolide, 3-chloromaleylacetate and 3-chloro-4-ketadipate to succinate plus acetate. through the above pathway, dca was converted ultimately to inorganic end products. the slow mineralization of dca in soil is not entirely explainable by the inherent recalcitrance of this compound but is explainable by the competing polymerization & binding reactions that decrease its availability.
Bioaccumulative potential
Studies on the environmental hazards & fate of herbicides are reviewed. Herbicides do not accumulate by way of the trophic chains, except for diuron & 3,4-dichloroaniline, which accumulate in fish.
Mobility in soil
Up to 90% of 3,4-dichloraniline ... derived from biodegradation of phenylamide herbicides is adsorbed so strongly by soil org matter that it is not extractable by solvents. bound dca is susceptible to acid & alkaline hydrolysis.
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.
