SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic and corrosive fumes of hydrogen chloride and hydrogen fluoride. Attacks some plastics and rubber.
Chemical stability
no data available
Possibility of hazardous reactions
The vapour is heavier than air and may accumulate in lowered spaces causing a deficiency of oxygen.The material ENFLURANE is incompatible with the following oxidizing materials, peroxides, combustible materials. Although nonflammable, a fire may cause enflurane to decompose to toxic compounds including phosgene, hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen fluoride. Decomposes slowly in the light.
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
Volatile with anesthetic properties, but non-flammable.
Hazardous decomposition products
Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions. - Carbon oxides, hydrogen chloride gas, hydrogen fluoride.

SECTION 12: Ecological information
Toxicity
- Toxicity to fish: no data available
- Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
- Toxicity to algae: no data available
- Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available
Persistence and degradability
no data available
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 11 was calculated in fish for enflurane(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.10(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of enflurane is estimated as 100(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.10(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that enflurane is expected to have high mobility in soil.
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.
