10.Stability and reactivity
10.1 Reactivity
no data available
10.2 Chemical stability
Stable under recommended storage conditions.
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactions
A halogenated aromatic amine. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.

12.2 Persistence and degradability
The effects of dichlorine-substituted anilines on guelph loam were studied. Several dichloroanilines at concentrations of 5 to 100 ug/g soil was inhibitory against the oxidation of the nitrogen of ammonia to nitrite nitrogen, but not nitrite nitrogen to nitrate nitrogen. It showed almost a linear rate of decomposition over the 12 wk period of the experiment. The dichloroanilines were more persistent than aniline or the monochloroanilines. /Dichloroanilines/
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 76 was calculated for 2,3-dichloroaniline(SRC), using the log Kow of 2.78(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.
12.4 Mobility in soil
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for 2,3-dichloroaniline can be estimated to be about 120(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this Koc value suggests that 2,3-dichloroaniline is expected to have high mobility in soil(SRC). Aromatic amines such as various chloro- and dichloroaniline isomers, have been observed to undergo rapid and reversible covalent bonding with humic materials in aqueous solution; the initial bonding reaction is followed by a slower and much less reversible reaction believed to represent the addition of the amine to quinoidal structure followed by oxidation of the product to give an amino-substituted quinone; these processes represent pathways by which aromatic amines may be converted to latent forms in the biosphere(3).
12.5 Other adverse effects
no data available
13.Disposal considerations
13.1 Disposal methods
Product
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.
Contaminated packaging
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.
