Sodium Chloroacetate (C₂H₂ClNaO₂, CAS 3926‑62‑3) rapidly metabolizes to monochloroacetic acid (MCA) after ingestion. In rats, oral exposure leads to liver and kidney accumulation via metabolites like thiodiacetic and glycolic acids benchchem.com+4tera.org+4highmountainco.com+4. This highlights the compound’s systemic distribution and organ-specific impacts.
Oral LD₅₀ values range from 76–580 mg/kg in rodents, indicating moderate acute toxicity .
Inhalation and dermal data are limited, but Fisher’s SDS reports it may be fatal if absorbed through skin or inhaled pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.
Exposure symptoms include skin corrosion, respiratory distress, convulsions, nausea, and abdominal pain tera.org+14highmountainco.com+14pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov+14.
Long-term exposure may impair liver and renal function, damage fertility, and harm fetal development chemicalsafety.ilo.org+2ecetoc.org+2echa.europa.eu+2.
A 90-day rat study identified a LOAEL at 15 mg/kg/day, suggesting caution with repeated exposure pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov+12tera.org+12ecetoc.org+12.
The WEEL guideline suggests a TWA of 0.5 ppm (2.5 mg/m³) over 8 hours highmountainco.com+7tera.org+7nj.gov+7.
The German MAK (inhalable) limit is 2 mg/m³, also noting significant skin absorption risk chemicalsafety.ilo.org+1highmountainco.com+1.
Acute exposure guidelines (e.g., AEGL-1) range from 0.83 ppm (12ppm short-term) elchemy-website.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com+1highmountainco.com+1.
