Dichloroethyne Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Chemical Properties
DCA is a volatile, pyrophoric oil. It has an unpleasant, sweetish odor. A gas above 32°C/90°F.
Uses
DCA is not commercially available in large quantities. It is reportedly a by-product of the synthesis of vinylidene chloride and is not known to be used commercially.
Production Methods
DCA is a highly toxic, spontaneously combustible, undesired, and noncommercial product of the dehydrochlorination of trichloroethylene. It has resulted from exposure of trichloroethylene vapor to Hopcalite in a closed environmental system (submarine) and soda lime in closed circuit (rebreathing) anesthesia machines and from exposure of trichloroethylene liquid to caustic in degreaser tanks. It may also be an undesired by-product during chemical processes such as production of vinylidene chloride. When DCA was decomposed in the presence of oxygen, seven substanceswere found: phosgene, hexachlorobutadiene, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroacetyl chloride, tetrachloroethylene, and trichloroacryloyl chloride.
General Description
Volatile oil with a disagreeable, sweetish odor. Mp: -68 to -65°C; bp: 32-34°C. Density: 1.38 g cm-3. Is not produced commercially.
Air & Water Reactions
Ignites or explodes upon contact with air (MCA Case History 1989 (1974)).
Reactivity Profile
Dichloroethyne is a reducing agent. Incompatible with oxidizing agents. Can ignite or explode on contact with air or if heated. Can explode if shocked. Burns in the presence of chlorine to form phosgene (Ann. Chem. 640:5(1961)).
Health Hazard
Dichloroacetylene is a neurotoxin; it is carcinogenic in experimental animals.
Potential Exposure
DCA, dichloroacetylene, is not produced commercially and is a possible decomposition product of trichloroethylene or trichloroethane. Reported to be a by-product of vinylidene chloride (see V:0220). Also, a closed circuit anesthesia with trichloroethylene, heat and moisture produced by soda-lime absorption of CO2 may produce dichloroacetylene (DCA) along with phosgene and carbon monoxide (CO).
Carcinogenicity
The IARC concluded that there is limited evidence for the carcinogenicity of DCA to experimental animals based on treatment-related increases in the incidence of adenocarcinomas of the kidney in male mice, benign tumors of the liver and kidney, and an increased incidence of lymphomas in rats.
Metabolic pathway
By the incubation of dichloroacetylene with rat liver and kidney subcellular fractions, the formation of S- (1,2-dichlorovinyl)glutathione (DCVG) is observed, and N-acetyl-S-(1,2-dichlorovinyl)-L-cysteine is identified as a urinary metabolite in rats.
Shipping
Explosive! Dichloroacetylene is cited by DOT as “FORBIDDEN.”
Incompatibilities
An unstable explosive; heat or shock may cause explosion. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong acids (forms poisonous gases of phosgene and hydrogen chloride), strong bases.
