Carcinogenicity of 3-Nitroaniline (99-09-2) hasn't been listed as a carcinogen by NTP, IARC,ACGIH, or CA Prop 65. You can see actual entry in RTECS for complete information.
Reported in EPA TSCA Inventory. EPA Genetic Toxicology Program.
Poison by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. Mutation data reported. Absorbed through the skin and by inhalation of the dust. Acute exposure may cause methemoglobinemia cyanosis. Chronic exposure may cause liver damage. Flammable liquid. Decomposes exothermically at 247°C. Possibly explosive reaction with ethylene oxide at 130°C. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. See also o-NITROANILINE, p-NITROANILINE, and ANILINE DYES.

3-Nitroaniline (99-09-2), also can be called 3-Nitrophenylamine ; m-Nitrophenylamine ; meta-Nitroaniline ; benzenamine, 3-nitro- , is non-volatile stable solid commonly used as a raw material for dyes and Pigments.It is an aniline carrying a nitro functional group in position 3.It is hazardous,so the first aid measures and others should be known.Such as: When on the skin: first,should flush skin with plenty of water immediatelyfor at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Secondly,Get shoesmedical aid . Or in the eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids.Then get medical aid soon.While ,it's Inhaled: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately.Give artificial respiration while not breathing. When breathing is difficult, give oxygen. And as soon as to get medical aid. Then you have the ingesting of the product : Wash mouth out with water,and get medical aid immediately.Notes to physician: Treat supportively and symptomatically.
In addition, 3-Nitroaniline (99-09-2) can be stable under normal temperature and pressure conditions.It is not compatible with strong oxidizing agents, acids, acid chlorides, acid anhydrides, chloroformates,and you must not take it with incompatible materials.And also prevent it to broken down into hazardous decomposition products: oxides of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide.
