| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Very volatile yellow liquid. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Water soluble but relatively unstable in water . | [Health Hazard]
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: Methylvinylnitrosamine is highly toxic by ingestion and inhalation. When heated to decomposition, Methylvinylnitrosamine emits toxic fumes of NOx. | [Fire Hazard]
Flash point data for Methylvinylnitrosamine are not available; however Methylvinylnitrosamine is probably combustible. | [Potential Exposure]
This chemical is not manufactured but
occurs as a chemical reaction byproduct found in the dye,
automotive, rubber, and leather industries. | [First aid]
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any
contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek
medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the
skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately
with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.
If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,
begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including
resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if
heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical
facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical
attention. Give large quantities of water and induce
vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit. | [Shipping]
UN3082 Environmentally hazardous substances,
liquid, n.o.s., Hazard Class: 9; Labels: 9-Miscellaneous
hazardous material, Technical Name Required | [Incompatibilities]
Light sensitive. Incompatible with oxidizers
(chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates,
chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause
fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides. A nitrated
amine. Amines are combustible. Azo, diazo, azido compounds
can detonate. This applies in particular to organic
azides that have been sensitized by the addition of metal
salts or strong acids. Toxic gases are formed by mixing
materials of this class with acids, aldehydes, amides, carbamates,
cyanides, inorganic fluorides, halogenated organics,
isocyanates, ketones, metals, nitrides, peroxides, phenols,
epoxides, acyl halides, and strong oxidizing or reducing
agents. Flammable gases are formed by mixing materials in
this group with alkali metals. Explosive combination can
occur with strong oxidizing agents, metal salts, peroxides,
and sulfides. | [Chemical Properties]
N-Nitrosomethylvinylamine is a yellow liquid. | [Waste Disposal]
Consult with environmental
regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal
practices. Generators of waste containing this contaminant
(≥100 kg/mo) must conform with EPA regulations governing
storage, transportation, treatment, and waste disposal. | [Uses]
N-Methyl-N-nitroso-ethenamine is used as research reagent for base induced fragmentation to give aldehydes or ketones and smaller alkylnitrosamine | [Uses]
N-nitrosomethylvinylamine is used as a research chemical; no other uses were identified (IARC 1978, HSDB 2009). | [Definition]
ChEBI: N-Nitrosomethylvinylamine is a nitroso compound. | [Production Methods]
NMVA has not been produced commercially and is currently
produced in limited quantities for research purposes. There
are no reports that it occurs in the environment and exposure
is likely limited to researchers using NMVA. | [Carcinogenicity]
N-Nitrosomethylvinylamine is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in experimental animals. |
