The list is subject of the Extremely Hazardous substances article drive. |
I propose a similar "international list of toxic substances", because a recent news article mentioned it:
I know it's extremely hazardous, but are you sure it can be considered a substance at all? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.9.114.88 ( talk • contribs)
Came here as part of link repair ( You can help!) to work on the following, then realised this was out of my scientific depth ! Please can you check that the following names are correct and I have undone my edits ok ?

For some reason, I cannot edit this article now, only the discussion page. But I think nitric acid (it's corrosive, as I said earlier) deserves to go on here as well as nitroglycerin and acetone peroxide (possibly the two most unstable substances ever, though I don't know which is more friction sensetive or the similar but different shock sensitive). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.81.42.30 ( talk) 21:38, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
Asbestos isn't included because? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.208.117.237 ( talk) 05:53, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
Well the list may be government compiled, but the links are not, thus cyanuric fluoride (CAS number 675-14-9) links to Cyanogen halide which is not the same.
Actually to be honest the list is crap, 'sulfuric acid' and 'Tabun' are in the same list. Trust me, there is a difference. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.110.241.125 ( talk) 00:52, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Why is peracetic acid on the list? Other than because the government said so ("Why did they say so").
Just curious, not only because of what has been left off the list, but its interesting that a chemical that can technically be formed in a person's mouth using stuff the FDA says can be stuck there (vinegar and hydrogen peroxide, apparently k~=.4 at room temp?)
There does exist a need for explanation, especially for compounds like this where the compound's article doesn't indicate specifically why its (especially) toxic... or even what about peracetic acid makes it worthy of a public-right-to-know law? Keeping in mind that everything is eventually toxic at some dose, this doesn't seem especially bad, it breaks down into common natural products easily, without bioaccumulation, probably hurts during incidental exposure (making continued exposure less likely), and has a rather strong odor (making continued exposure less likely)... so what on earth makes it comparable to the majority of everything else on this list?
Well it's on the official list. [2] Apart from that I don't know why it is on. -- Rifleman 82 ( talk) 03:42, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Phosphorus Pentoxide is not considered an extremely hazardous substance. Please update this list according to http://www.epa.gov/ceppo/pubs/title3.pdf

A couple of weeks ago it became apparent that not all of the substances listed were named correctly in this article. One that I'm suspicious may be part of this list is Cobalt, (2,2'-(1,2-ethanediylbis)); I've been looking through Google to find information on this substance, but every source I look at seems to imply that there's more to the name than just that. I don't suppose the name mentioned here is the correct one? Like my singing? Ha-la-la-la-la-la-LA-LAAA!!! ( talk) 09:37, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

This article is all about United States' version of extremely hazardous substances, we need more lists from other dangerous goods organisations around the world. DSCrowned( Talk) 11:31, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
This is a nonsensical chemical name that appears to be pulled from a satirical article about another chemical where it is referred to as such in the title. The substance in the article (1-diazidocarbamoyl-5-azidotetrazole ) has only been produced in very small experimental quantities. It looks like this is possibly a case of vandalism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.88.213.179 ( talk) 22:42, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
Didn't Nilered make acrolein on one of his videos??? Even though he did emphasize that it is toxic, if a ameture chemist made such a chemical, why is on the list of "extremely hazardous substances"?? I mean, is that basically meaning that it is not extremely hazardous? XXGuyWithAnAxeXx ( talk) 21:16, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: consensus to move the page to EPA list of extremely hazardous substances at this time, per the discussion below. Dekimasu よ! 14:50, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
List of extremely hazardous substances → ? – Per WP:GLOBAL. The current title does not reflect the fact that the list is exclusively based on laws and regulations of the United States. I'm not sure what it should be moved to, maybe EPA list of extremely hazardous substances (similar to DEA list of chemicals) or List of extremely hazardous substances (US) (like List of Schedule I drugs (US)).

I want this list to be updated. I propose "lead sulphate" To be included in this list. In case the admin is reading this please consider my suggestion!! TheGameGK ( talk) 22:28, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
In case, I am making suggestions and amendment to this particular section.. I also want "Dimethyl Cadmium" and "Dimethyl Mercury" to be added. Thank You. Both these compounds are highly carcinogenic. TheGameGK ( talk) 22:52, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
I strongly prefer other members to please refer to this article: https://m.timesofindia.com/city/kozhikode/Ban-on-diclofenac-a-lifeline-for-vultures/articleshow/48767339.cms I think "diclofenac" should also be included. I know it might be a prescribed medication but is lethal to wildlife!! TheGameGK ( talk) 23:24, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
I also do think that "anatoxin-a" Should be included in this list.. Also known as very fast death factor!! TheGameGK ( talk) 20:03, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

Muscimol was listed in the EPA's Extremely Hazardous Substances (EHS) list according to a 1998 publication (source: https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-40/chapter-I/subchapter-J/part-355). However, they removed it later (source: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2006-08-16/pdf/E6-13491.pdf#page=16). -- 94.255.152.53 ( talk) 05:18, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
