  • Safety Statements: Poison by inhalation. Moderately toxic by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. Mildly toxic by skin contact. A skin and eye irritant. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame. Reacts violently with mineral acids (e.g., chlorosulfonic acid, oleum, sulfuric acid), amines, or inorganic bases (e.g., NaOH). Reacts with water or steam to produce toxic and flammable vapors. To fight fire, use CO2, dry chemical, alcohol foam. When heated to decomposition or on contact with acid or acid fumes it emits highly toxic fumes of CN−. See also NITRILES.
