1498-51-7

ETHYL PHOSPHORODICHLORIDATE(1498-51-7) is strongly irritating to skin. ETHYL PHOSPHORODICHLORIDATE(1498-51-7) may cause visible destruction or irreversible alterations in human skin tissue at the site of contact. ETHYL PHOSPHORODICHLORIDATE(1498-51-7) is very toxic by ingestion, inhalation, or by skin absorption. ETHYL PHOSPHORODICHLORIDATE(1498-51-7) may be combustible though ETHYL PHOSPHORODICHLORIDATE(1498-51-7) may require some effort to ignite.

Organophosphates, such as ETHYL PHOSPHORODICHLORIDATE, are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides.

Reacts with water to form hydrogen chloride(hydrochloric acid)

Inhalation of vapor irritates nose and throat. Contact with liquid causes severe burns of eyes and skin. Ingestion causes severe burns of mouth and stomach.
