(1S-cis)-4-(2-amino-6-chloro-9H-purin-9-yl)-2-cyclopentene-1-methanol hydrochloride

Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: Remove patient to fresh air. Obtain immediate medical

attention.

Emergency measure - Eyes: Irrigate with eyewash solution or clean water, holding the

eyelids apart, for at least 15 minutes. Obtain immediate

medical attention.

Emergency measure - Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse.

Thoroughly wash all affected areas with soap and water. Seek

medical attantion.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: Seek immediate medical attention.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: Water spray, foam, powder or carbon dioxide.

Product arising from burning: Evolve oxides of carbon and nitrogen and chlorine-containing

compounds.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing

apparatus must be worn.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: Ensure suitable protective clothing during removal of

spillages.

Damp down and sweep up into a container for disposal.  Wash

the spillage area with water.

Disposal should be in accordance with local, state or

national legislation.

Handling and storage

Handling: Control dust formation.

Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

Handle in a well ventilated area and avoid ingestion,

inhalation and contact with skin and eyes.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None reported.

Chemical reaction with water: None reported.

Dust explosion: There is a potential for dust explosion of this organic

powder when it becomes airbourne.  However, appropriate

handling and storage procedures are used to minimise the

risk of electrostatic discharge.

Dust explosion determined by test: N

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Handling of the substance will be by trained operators and

will be kept to a minimum.

Discharge to the environment will be minimal. Recovery from

minor spillages or accidental discharge is not economically

or technically feasible and such waste material will be

disposed of by incineration. In principle, it may be

possible to recover larger spillages of uncontaminated

material for subsequent use.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: The notification tests have shown that the substance is

toxic, an eye irritant, a skin sensitiser and dangerous for

the environment.

No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the

hazardous health properties.

The potential dust storage hazard will be minimised by

appropriate handling and storage.

No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralise the

hazardous environmental properties.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages of solutions mixed with

inert material (eg. sand or soil) should be disposed of by

incineration in accordance with local regulations.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The substance can be disposed of by incineration by burning

under controlled conditions at a licensed waste treatment

processor in accordance with local regulations.

Stack gases should be scrubbed because noxious fumes (eg,

carbon and nitrogen oxides and chlorine-containing

compounds) could be formed.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance will not normally be discharged directly to

the sewage system or the aqueous environment.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable, the substance will not enter the public

domain.
