Description
Summary:3,4-toluenediamine (3,4-TDA), also known as 3,4-diaminotoluene (CASRN 496-72-0),belongs to the class of compounds known as anilines and is an ortho (o)-substituted compound. The principal commercial use for o-TDAs, including 3,4-TDA, is in the production of tolyltriazoles used in corrosion and nitrification inhibitors. 3,4-TDA is also used as an intermediate in the manufacture of urethane products, dyes, corrosion inhibitors, polyols, and benzimidazole thiol antioxidants and as a starting material for a pharmaceutical intermediate (Cartolano, 2005; HSDB, 2003). It is listed on U.S. EPA's Toxic Substances Control Act's public inventory (U.S. EPA, 2015), but it is not registered with Europe's Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) program (ECHA, 2016)
