Water-Reactive
CYANURIC CHLORIDE reacts rapidly and exothermically with water to generate hydrogen chloride. A mixture with water in an industrial reactor with refrigeration turned off developed pressure that blew gaskets and filled the building with flammable vapors. An explosion occurred when the vapors were ignited [MCA Case History 1869(1972)]. Runaway reactions have occurred with acetone/water; methanol/water, ethoxyethanol/water, allyl alcohol/sodium hydroxide/water, 2-butanone/sodium hydroxide/water, and methanol/sodium bicarbonate [Loss Prev. Bull., 1979, (25), 21]. Reacts with methanol to give gaseous methyl chloride. Reacts rapidly with bicarbonates to generate gaseous carbon dioxide. Reacts vigorously with dimethyl formamide (DMF) to form carbon dioxide after a deceptive induction period [BCISC Quart. Safety Summ., 1960, 35, 24]. Can react with reducing agents to generate heat and products that may be gaseous (causing pressurization of closed containers). The products may themselves be capable of further reactions (such as combustion in the air).

Cyanuric chloride's production and use as a precursor in the synthesis of herbicides and insecticides, optical brighteners, dyes, and plastics(1) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC).
TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 120(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that cyanuric chloride will have high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of cyanuric chloride from moist soil surfaces(SRC) is not expected to be an important environmental fate process given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.9X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived using a fragment constant estimation method(3). Volatilization from dry soil surfaces is not expected(SRC), based on an estimated vapor pressure of 0.023 mm Hg(SRC), derived from a structure estimation method(4). Complete anaerobic degradation of 250-500 uM of cyanuric chloride solutions incorporated into a methanogenic aquifer slurry was observed after a one year time period(5); however, cyanuric chloride hydrolyzes rapidly(6) and the degradation was likely due to hydrolytic dehalogenation rather than biodegradation(SRC).|AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 120(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that cyanuric chloride is unlikely to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment in water(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.9X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(4). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF value of 2(SRC), from an estimated log Kow of 1.73(6), and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). cyanuric chloride hydrolyzes rapidly in water(8). Approximately 40% degradation was observed in 1 hour at a temperature of 30 °C(8). Complete anaerobic degradation of 250-500 uM of cyanuric chloride solutions incorporated into a methanogenic aquifer slurry was observed after a one year time period(9); however, the degradation was likely due to abiotic (hydrolysis) rather than biotic (microbial) processes(SRC).|ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), cyanuric chloride, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 0.023 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant estimation method(2), will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor phase cyanuric chloride is degraded slowly in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be about 4,300 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 3.7X10-15 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3).
The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of cyanuric chloride with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals has been estimated as 3.7X10-15 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 4,300 days at an atmospheric concentration of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm(1). A suspension of cyanuric chloride in ice water was stable for about 12 hours; however, at 30 °C more than 40% hydrolyzed to cyanuric acid in 1 hour(2). Cyanuric chloride does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(3).
An estimated BCF of 2 was calculated in fish for cyanuric chloride(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 1.73(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF value suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Cyanuric chloride hydrolyzes rapidly in water(4), thus eliminating bioconcentration as an important environmental fate property.
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for cyanuric chloride is estimated as 120(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that cyanuric chloride possesses high mobility in soil(SRC).
The Henry's Law constant for cyanuric chloride is estimated as 4.9X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) using a fragment constant estimation method(1). This value indicates that cyanuric chloride is not expected to volatilize from water surfaces or moist soil surfaces(2). Moreover, cyanuric chloride hydrolyzes rapidly in water(3), thus eliminating volatilization as an important environmental fate property. Cyanuric chloride is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 0.023 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(4).
NIOSH (NOES Survey 1981-1983) NIOSH (NOES Survey 1981-1983) has statistically estimated that 2,337 workers (299 of these are female) are potentially exposed to cyanuric chloride in the US(1). Occupational exposure may occur through dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where cyanuric chloride is produced or used(SRC).

Investigations included anamnesis, physical examination (with special attention to lungs, skin and eyes), lung function (forced expiratory volume) and blood pressure measurements. Medical records of another 21 workers previously exposed to incidental high concentrations, who had changed jobs in the mean time, were checked. Determination of concentrations at the workplace. Samples (30-60 min) were taken during the filling procedure (worst case) and during normal production procedures (both room and personal monitoring). The samples were analyzed after adsorption tosilicagel, desorption with H2SO4, hydrolysis to cyanuric acid (70 min at 70 °C) and analysis of the cyanuric acid by HPLC with UV detection. No effects on any of the measured parameters were found. FEV was within normal ranges. Accidental acute exposure to high doses of cyanuric chloride was reported to lead to irritation/corrosion of the conjunctiva and skin irritation. After inhalation of the test substance coughing, breathing problems and shortness of breath were seen. These effects disappeared completely after a short time and did not result in persisting problems. Measured concentrations were 7.09 = or - 9.22 ug/cu m, 4.43 = or - 2.72 ug/cu m and 92.76 = or - 147.52 cu m, for filling, room and personal monitoring, respectively.
