Toxicity and Reactivity

Chlorotrifluoropropane is acutely toxic and upon heating to decomposition, it will emit chlorine and fluorine gases, both of which can be toxic to living organisms at low concentrations. Chlorotrifluoropropane will not readily undergo a reaction with water or air.{{Cite web|url=https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/3-Chloro-1_1_1-trifluoropropane|title = 3-Chloro-1,1,1-trifluoropropane}}{{Cite web|url=https://cameochemicals.noaa.gov/chemical/18079|title = 3-CHLORO-1,1,1-TRIFLUOROPROPANE | CAMEO Chemicals | NOAA}}
