10.2 Chemical stabilityCOLORLESS LIQUID THAT TURNS YELLOW, RED OR BROWN WHEN EXPOSED TO LIGHT & MOISTURE.
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactionsIodomethane is not flammable.The vapour is heavier than air and may accumulate in lowered spaces causing a deficiency of oxygen.Halogenated aliphatic compounds, such as METHYL IODIDE, are moderately or very reactive. Halogenated organics generally become less reactive as more of their hydrogen atoms are replaced with halogen atoms. Low molecular weight haloalkanes are highly flammable and can react with some metals to form dangerous products. Materials in this group are incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Also, they are incompatible with many amines, alkylphosphines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals (sodium), and epoxides.
10.4 Conditions to avoidno data available
10.5 Incompatible materialsStrong oxidizers [Note: Decomposes at 518 degrees F].
10.6 Hazardous decomposition productsIODIDE & HYDROGEN IODIDE MAY BE RELEASED WHEN METHYL IODIDE UNDERGOES THERMAL DECOMPOSITION (270 DEG C).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialAn estimated BCF of 2.9 was calculated for methyl iodide(SRC), using a log Kow of 1.51(1,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. While methyl iodide has been detected in various fish and shellfish, it is thought that the chemical may have been formed biogenically(4).
12.4 Mobility in soilUsing a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for methyl iodide can be estimated to be 14(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that methyl iodide should have very high mobility in soil. The soil/water distribution coefficient of methyl iodide in various soils were (soil, Kd): Greenfield sandy loam, 0.09; Linne clay loam, 0.15; Carsetas loamy sand, 0.16; and potting mix, 0.55(3).
12.5 Other adverse effectsno data available
13.Disposal considerations 13.1 Disposal methods ProductThe material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Contaminated packagingContainers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
