Subject: [DCHAS-L] Looking for suggestions: I need help finding the name of a chemical
I need the collective wisdom of the group-
I'm trying to think of any chemical that is soluble in benzene and has NO significant hazardous characteristics other than toxicity (i.e., not flammable, corrosive, water-reactive, etc.). However, the more toxic it is, the better-
I do not want the actual chemical - just the name. I'm trying to create a hypothetical "what-if" scenario for an upcoming discussion about responding to chemical spills in a laboratory.
If you have any suggestions, please reply direct to stevemclean**At_Symbol_Here**byu.edu
Thanks,
SJM
