About

A chloronitrobenzene derivative with multiple GHS hazard statements (H315, H319, H335) for irritation, permitted in hair dye use only up to 0.1% concentration.

This compound is a chloronitrobenzene bearing two hydroxyethylamino substituents, used as an oxidative hair dye intermediate. It carries three GHS hazard classifications for irritation (skin, eye, and respiratory, H315/H319/H335). Under EU cosmetic regulation it is subject to a maximum permitted concentration of 0.1% when used in hair dye formulations, and must be labelled with appropriate hazard warnings. The nitro and chloro substituents both contribute to toxicological concern.

Known concerns

  • Skin irritation hazard (H315)
  • Eye irritation hazard (H319)
  • Respiratory irritation hazard (H335)
  • Maximum permitted concentration 0.1% in hair dyes
