If material on fire or involved in fire: Use water in flooding quantities as fog. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Apply water from as far a distance as possible. Solid streams of water may be ineffective. Use foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. Use water spray to knock-down vapors. /Dichlorobutene/

If material not on fire and not involved in fire: Keep sparks, flames, and other sources of ignition away. Keep material out of water sources and sewers. Build dikes to contain flow as necessary. Use water spray to knock-down vapors. /Dichlorobutene/|Personnel protection: Avoid breathing vapors. Keep upwind. Avoid bodily contact with the material. ... Do not handle broken packages unless wearing appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash away any material which may have contacted the body with copious amounts of water or soap and water. Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus when fighting fires involving this material. If contact with the material anticipated, wear appropriate chemical protective clothing. /Dichlorobutene/|SRP: Contaminated protective clothing should be segregated in such a manner so that there is no direct personal contact by personnel who handle, dispose, or clean the clothing. Quality assurance to ascertain the completeness of the cleaning procedures should be implemented before the decontaminated protective clothing is returned for reuse by the workers. Contaminated clothing should not be taken home at end of shift, but should remain at employee's place of work for cleaning.|SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.

Very severe eye and skin irritant causing burns. Burns in the eye result in irreversible damage. /Dichlorobutenes/

Aquatic Fate: Allyl chloride analogs are hydrolyzed in water. The most likely products of 3,4 dichloro-1-butene are: 4-chloro-3-hydroxy-1-butene, 4-chloro-1-hydroxy-2-butene, and 3,4-dihydroxy-1-butene.|TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 160(SRC), determined from a measured water solubility of 420 mg/l(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 3,4-dichloro-1-butene is expected to have high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 3,4-dichloro-1-butene from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 8.6X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), based upon its vapor pressure, 21.9 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 420 mg/l(2). The potential for volatilization of 3,4-dichloro-1-butene from dry soil surfaces may exist based upon its vapor pressure(4). The neutral hydrolysis half-life of a similar compound, 1,4-dichloro-2-butene, has been measured as 3.2 days(5). This suggests that 3,4-dichloro-1-butene may also undergo hydrolysis in moist soils(SRC).|AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 160(SRC), determined from a measured water solubility of 420 mg/l(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 3,4-dichloro-1-butene is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 8.6X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), based upon its vapor pressure, 21.9 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 420 mg/l(2). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 1 hour and 4.5 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), a BCF range of 0.59 to 13.3(7), suggests bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. The neutral hydrolysis half-life of a similar compound, 1,4-dichloro-2-butene, has been measured as 3.2 days(6). This suggests that 3,4-dichloro-1-butene may also undergo hydrolysis in water(SRC).|ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 3,4-dichloro-1-butene, which has a vapor pressure of 21.9 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 3,4-dichloro-1-butene is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals and ozone molecules(SRC). The half-life for the reaction in air with hydroxyl radicals is estimated to be 19 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constants of 2X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(3). The half-life for the reaction in air with ozone is estimated to be 23 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constants of 1.2X10-17 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(3).

The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of 3,4-dichloro-1-butene with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals has been estimated as 2X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 19 hours at an atmospheric concentration of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm(1). The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of 3,4-dichloro-1-butene with ozone has been estimated as 1.2X10-17 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 23 hours at an atmospheric concentration of 7X10+11 ozone molecules per cu cm(2). The neutral hydrolysis half-life of a similar compound, 1,4-dichloro-2-butene, has been measured as 3.2 days(3).

12.88|In 8-week bioaccumulation studies using the Japanese MITI protocol (where the test fish are carp (Cyprinus carpio)), BCFs ranging from 0.59 to 13.3 have been observed for 3,4-dichloro-1-butene(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low.

The Koc of 3,4-dichloro-1-butene is estimated as 160(SRC), using a measured water solubility of 420 mg/l(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 3,4-dichloro-1-butene is expected to have high mobility in soil.

The Henry's Law constant for 3,4-dichloro-1-butene is estimated as 8.6X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure, 21.9 mm Hg(1), and water solubility, 420 mg/l(2). This Henry's Law constant indicates that 3,4-dichloro-1-butene is expected to volatilize rapidly from water surfaces(3). Based on this Henry's Law constant, the volatilization half-life from a model river (1 m deep, flowing 1 m/sec, wind velocity of 3 m/sec)(3) is estimated as 1 hour(SRC). The volatilization half-life from a model lake (1 m deep, flowing 0.05 m/sec, wind velocity of 0.5 m/sec)(3) is estimated as 4.5 days(SRC). 3,4-Dichloro-1-butene's estimated Henry's Law constant(1,2) indicates that volatilization from moist soil surfaces may occur(SRC). The potential for volatilization of 3,4-dichloro-1-butene from dry soil surfaces may exist(SRC) based upon the vapor pressure of this compound(1).
