Inhalation: Move affected person to fresh air. Seek medical advice if symptoms such as cough or shortness of breath occur
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water for at least 15 minutes. Seek attention for redness, swelling, or persistent irritation
Eye Contact: Rinse with clean water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower eyelids occasionally. Seek medical care
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Contact a poison information center or physician at once
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use foam, dry chemical powder, or carbon dioxide; water spray for large fires
Special Hazards: Toxic fumes such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide can form under fire conditions
Fire-fighter Protection: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing
Specific Methods: Cool containers with water to prevent rupture. Avoid handling containers exposed to intense heat
Personal Precautions: Evacuate unprotected individuals, ventilate area, and use personal protective equipment
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spillage from entering waterways, sewers, or soil
Containment and Clean Up: Use inert absorbent for liquid spills. Collect material in tightly closed containers for disposal. Clean area with plenty of water
Safe Handling: Use local exhaust ventilation. Avoid dust, vapor formation, and contact with skin or eyes. Provide adequate training for users
Storage Conditions: Store in tightly closed containers, away from light, heat, moisture, and incompatible substances such as oxidizing agents
Incompatibilities: Strong acids, oxidizing materials, and bases
Engineering Controls: Use fume hood or local exhaust ventilation
Exposure Limits: No established OSHA or ACGIH exposure limits
Personal Protection: Use chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or butyl rubber), safety goggles or face shield, lab coat, and, if aerosol or dust generation occurs, suitable respirator
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in work area

Skin Irritation: May cause redness, dryness, or cracking
Eye Irritation: Causes serious eye irritation with redness, tearing, and pain
Sensitization: Data insufficient, but aromatic amines can act as sensitizers
Chronic Effects: Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause damage to organs
Carcinogenicity: No evidence for this compound, but closely related naphthylamines are classified as carcinogens by IARC
Mutagenicity and Reproductive Toxicity: Mutagenicity data lacking, but use caution based on related structures
Aquatic Toxicity: Harmful to aquatic life; data for fish and invertebrates limited
Persistence and Degradability: Not readily biodegradable, may persist
Bioaccumulation: Potential exists due to low water solubility and high log Kow value
