Methoxyisopropylamine hazard classification
Harmonised classification under CLP Annex VI. This is the legally binding classification in the EU; other jurisdictions may differ.
Methoxyisopropylamine pictograms and signal word
Methoxyisopropylamine hazard class and category
| Hazard class | Category | From code | Pictogram |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flammable liquids GHS chapter 2.6 | Category 2 | H225 | GHS02 |
| Acute toxicity - oral GHS chapter 3.1 | Category 4 | H302 | GHS07 |
| Skin corrosion/irritation GHS chapter 3.2 | Category 1A or 1B or 1C | H314 | GHS05 |
| Hazardous to the aquatic environment - chronic GHS chapter 4.1 | Category 3 | H412 | — |
Where two values are shown with “or”, the hazard statement is shared by more than one category or by more than one class, and the code alone does not say which. H272, for example, belongs to oxidising liquids and to oxidising solids — the physical state decides. The binding answer for a specific entry is in the CLP Annex VI table itself.
Methoxyisopropylamine hazard statements (H-codes)
| Code | Hazard statement |
|---|---|
| H225 | Highly flammable liquid and vapour. |
| H302 | Harmful if swallowed. |
| H314 | Causes severe skin burns and eye damage. |
| H412 | Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects. |

Safety Data Sheet
Getting an SDS for Methoxyisopropylamine
A Safety Data Sheet is written for a product, not for a substance: the supplier of the grade you actually buy issues it, so two suppliers of Methoxyisopropylamine issue two different sheets. That is why there is no single authoritative SDS for a substance to download — what there is, is the job of collecting the sheets for the products you hold and keeping them current as suppliers revise them.
04 · Precautionary statements
Methoxyisopropylamine precautionary statements
CLP Annex VI assigns 15 precautionary statements to Methoxyisopropylamine. They are grouped the way a label groups them: what to do before handling, what to do when something has already happened, how to store it and how to dispose of it.
Prevention
What to do before and during handling so the hazard never happens.
Response
What to do once exposure, spillage or fire has already happened.
Disposal
What has to happen to the contents and the empty container.

05 · Names in the regulation
Methoxyisopropylamine name in 23 EU languages
CLP Annex VI Part 3 is published in every language edition of the regulation, and the identification column is written out in each of them. Nothing below is translated by us: each line is the name as that edition prints it. Under Art. 18(2) the substance name from Annex VI is a lawful product identifier, so this is the wording to put on a label going to that market — and where the cell lists several designations, any one of them qualifies.

All 23 language editions of Annex VI carry this entry. Irish is the twenty-fourth official EU language and has no line here for a different reason: no consolidated CLP text has ever been published in Irish, so there is no Irish edition of Annex VI to quote a name from.

Methoxyisopropylamine storage and handling
Methoxyisopropylamine reactivity
METHOXYISOPROPYLAMINE neutralizes acids in exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen may be generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.

08 · Questions
Methoxyisopropylamine — frequently asked questions
What is the CAS number of Methoxyisopropylamine?
The CAS number of Methoxyisopropylamine is 37143-54-7. Its EC number is 422-550-4.
What is the chemical formula of Methoxyisopropylamine?
The molecular formula of Methoxyisopropylamine is C4H11NO and its molecular weight is 89.14 g/mol.
What does a Methoxyisopropylamine label have to show?

Is Methoxyisopropylamine flammable?
Yes. CLP Annex VI assigns Methoxyisopropylamine H225 — highly flammable liquid and vapour.
Is Methoxyisopropylamine a carcinogen?
CLP Annex VI records no harmonised carcinogenicity classification for Methoxyisopropylamine. Annex VI is a list of agreed classifications, not a list of substances found safe, so this is an absence of a classification rather than a clean bill of health.
How should Methoxyisopropylamine be stored?
CLP Annex VI assigns Methoxyisopropylamine the storage statement P403.
