SECTION 4: First aid measures

Description of necessary first-aid measures

If inhaled

Move the victim into fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and consult a doctor immediately. Do not use mouth to mouth resuscitation if the victim ingested or inhaled the chemical.

Following skin contact

Take off contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a doctor.

Following eye contact

Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.

Following ingestion

Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.

Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed

Median lethal dosage 2600 mg-minute/m3. Mean incapacitating dosage 16 mg-minute/m3 as a vomiting agent and 1800 mg-minute/m3 as a blistering agent. 633 mg-minute/m3 produces eye injury. Poisonous; may be fatal if inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed through skin. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Strong irritant to eyes, skin, and issue. (EPA, 1998)

Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary

Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

The purpose of the study was to identify binding sites of organic arsenic in the erythrocyte and to explain species differences in binding. Washed erythrocytes were exposed to graded concentrations of (14)C-phenyldichloroarsine (PDA) in phosphate-buffered saline containing 0.1% glucose and 0.1% bovine serum albumin. At low phenyldichloroarsine concentrations, all cells bind the arsenical rapidly (within 10 min) and quantitatively. Human, pig, hamster, guinea pig, and mouse erythrocytes approached saturation at 0.02-0.3 mumol phenyldichloroarsine/10(9) cells, depending on the species. Saturation points correlated well with each respective species erythrocyte glutathione content. In contrast, rat erythrocytes showed no sign of saturation at phenyldichloroarsine loads as high as 3.0 mumol/10(9) cells. Hemolysates of phenyldichloroarsine-treated erythrocytes were subjected to Sephadex G-75 gel filtration chromatography. (14)C from rat hemolysate was distributed between the hemoglobin and small molecular weight (glutathione-containing) fractions. In all other species, the (14)C eluted almost exclusively with the glutathione-containing fractions. In equilibrium dialysis experiments, human hemoglobin did not bind phenyldichloroarsine, whereas rat hemoglobin bound 2 phenyldichloroarsine/mol with Kd approximately 5 m. In conclusion, glutathione is the principle binding site of phenyldichloroarsine in erythrocytes. In most species,the arsenical does not bind to hemoglobin, even though it has free (titratable) sulfhydryls considerably in excess of the glutathione concentration. In rat erythrocytes, phenyldichloroarsine binds both to glutathione and to hemoglobin.

SECTION 5: Firefighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media

Wear positive pressure breathing apparatus. Move container from fire area if you can do it without risk. Fight fire from maximum distance. Dike fire control water for later disposal; do not scatter the material. Extinguish with dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray, foam, or fog. (EPA, 1998)

Specific hazards arising from the chemical

This material may burn but does not ignite readily. Containers may explode in heat of fire. Fire and runoff from fire control water may produce irritating or poisonous gases. Upon decomposition hydrogen chloride and phenylarsenious oxide are emitted. Unstable. Decomposed by water. (EPA, 1998)

Special protective actions for fire-fighters

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.

SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.

Environmental precautions

Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.

Carcinogenicity

The Human Health Assessment Group in EPA's Office of Health and Environmental Assessment has evaluated dichlorophenylarsine for carcinogenicity. According to their analysis, the weight-of-evidence for dichlorophenylarsine is group D, which is based on no data evidence in humans and no data evidence in animals. As a group D chemical, dichlorophenylarsine is considered not classifiable to human carcinogenicity. Organic arsenic compounds are considered to be chemically different from the inorganic arsenic compounds such that they are assessed for carcinogenicity separately from the inorganic arsenic compounds. There are no data (weight-of-evidence group D) implicating organic arsenic compounds so that the carcinogenicity is indeterminate of this time.

Persistence and degradability

no data available

Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated BCF of 46 was calculated for phenyldichloroarsine(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 3.1(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate(SRC). However, phenyldichloroarsine rapidly hydrolyzes in water(4); therefore, bioconcentration may be less than estimated(SRC).

Mobility in soil

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for phenyldichloroarsine can be estimated to be 820(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that phenyldichloroarsine is expected to have low mobility in soil(SRC).

Other adverse effects

no data available
