3,3-Bis(chloromethyl)oxetane (BCMO) is classified as an extremely hazardous substance in the United States as defined in Section 302 of the U.S. Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (42 U.S.C. 11002), and is subject to strict reporting requirements by facilities which produce, store, or use it in significant quantities.[2] It can cause kidney damage, lacrimation, and somnolence if consumed.[1]
BCMO is a useful pre-polymer in the field of energetic materials for synthesis of Poly-BAMO which is under extensive research in numerous military departments around the world. Poly-BAMO is an energetic polymer that have potential to replace the current propellant binder formulations.[3]
