6.2 Environmental precautions
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Materials which are toxic as stored or which can decompose into toxic components...should be stored in a cool, well ventilated place, out of the direct rays of the sun, away from areas of high fire hazard, and should be periodically inspected. incompatible materials should be isolated... toxic hazards

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
10.1 Reactivity
Highly flammable. The solution reacts with water or moisture in the air to form flammable methane gas. The heat from this reaction may be sufficient to ignite the produced methane. Unstable peroxides may form with exposure of the ether to air. This is a slow process.
10.2 Chemical stability
no data available
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactions
SEE ETHERS. ...ETHERS...ARE...DANGEROUS FIRE HAZARDS. ...EASILY IGNITED & HAVE LOW FLASH POINTS. IT IS NECESSARY TO CONTROL SMOKING, OPEN FLAMES...HOT PLATES...WHERE LOW MOLECULAR WT ETHERS ARE APT TO REACH 1% CONCN OR MORE IN AIR. /ETHERS/Organometallics, such as METHYL MAGNESIUM BROMIDE, are reactive with many other groups. Incompatible with acids and bases. Organometallics are good reducing agents and therefore incompatible with oxidizing agents. Often reactive with water to generate toxic or flammable gases.
