Carcinogenicity

4,4′-Methylenedianiline and its dihydrochloride salt are reasonably anticipated to be human carcinogens based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in experimental animals.

Environmental Fate

MDA is a pale brown crystalline powder with a faint aminelike odor. Exposure to air and light results in polymerization and oxidation of MDA. When heated, MDA produces toxic fumes of aniline and nitrogen oxides.
Most MDA enters the environment when it is produced or used to make other compounds. Forty-five percent of the produced compound is released to deep soil, 52.6% to the air, and 2.4% to land and water. Once in the environment, it will be mainly present as tiny particles in the air and it is removed from the atmosphere by dry deposition, rain, and snow scavenging. A small amount is transformed by reaction with hydroxyl radicals. In water, most of MDA will attach to particles and sediments, and will eventually settle to the bottom.
The estimated half-life of biodegradation in surface water, groundwater, and soil is 1–7 days, 2–14 days, and 1–7 days, respectively. With respect to aquatic ecosystems, bioconcentration factor values of 3.0–14 suggest that bioconcentration is low, in addition this compound does not tend to build up in the food chain. When released to soil, it is expected to have slight to no mobility. Similarly, volatilization from both moist and dry soil surfaces is not expected to be important.

Toxicity evaluation

Currently, the mechanism of action is not completely understood and has been mostly assessed from information on structurally similar compounds. Many of the toxic properties of MDA have been attributed to metabolic intermediates, as these compounds are metabolically activated by N-oxidation to metabolites, such as N-hydroxymethylenedianiline, that react with DNA, RNA, and proteins.
Different studies suggest that both liver and thyroid are targets for MDA toxicity in humans and animals. Liver toxicity has been linked to impair mitochondrial function and structure, apoptosis, and increased oxidative stress. It may be caused by a reactive electrophile formed during metabolism since liver has the enzymatic routes necessary for such activation. Experimental studies indicate that biliary epithelial cells are damaged earlier than parenchymal cells and bile is a major route of exposure to MDA. The mechanism of thyroid toxicity has not yet been resolved. It has been observed that MDA exposure can induce a slight decrease in thyroid hormones in rats, thus triggering secretion of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which induced thyroid hyperplasia. Some of the induced adverse effects observed after MDA exposure (e.g., reduced food consumption, lower body weight gain, and effects on red cells, lymphocytes, and clotting parameters) could be explained as secondary responses.
MDA is carcinogenic to animals. The mechanism of liver or thyroid tumor development remains unclear. Even if cell injury may give indications of a nongenotoxic mechanism, it remains still unproved, and there are also positive genotoxic data in vitro and in vivo which indicate that a genotoxic mechanism may be related to the formation of a reactive metabolic intermediate cannot be excluded. Regarding thyroid cancer, hypersecretion of TSH may have a contribution to tumor formation.

Dust forms and explosive mixture with air. May polymerize in temperatures .125℃ . A weak base. Incompatible with strong oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong acids. Flammable gas- eous hydrogen may be generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides .
