Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
Additional information
In an OECD 301B valid study (Hydrotox GmbH, 2011a), the degradation extent of the test material (alpha-methyl cinnamaldehyde; CAS# 101-39-3) was 97.0% within 28 days after acidification (mean of three replicates). On day 4 the mean degradation extent of the test material was 2.6% and reached 77.4% by day 11. Therefore the test material (alpha-methyl cinnamaldehyde) reached the pass level for ready biodegradability (60% ThCO2 and 10-day window).
Additionally, in a supporting Closed Bottle Biodegradability Test conducted according to Council Directive 92/69 EEC, Method C.4-E (Bayer, 1999a), within the test period of 28 days, a degradation rate of 63% was determined for Methyl cinnamic aldehyde alpha (CAS# 101-39-3). Methyl cinnamic aldehyde alpha is therefore classified as "Readily Biodegradable".
In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex IX, no simulation tests in water and sediment, or soil are required since alpha-methyl cinnamaldehyde is readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
