Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
(3E)-2-chloro-3-(hydroxymethylidene)cyclohex-1-ene-1-carbaldehyde
EC Number:
801-656-8
Cas Number:
1416808-92-8
Molecular formula:
C8H9ClO2
IUPAC Name:
(3E)-2-chloro-3-(hydroxymethylidene)cyclohex-1-ene-1-carbaldehyde
Details on test material:
Since the substance decomposes in water, aquatic toxicity from the substance itself is unlikely to occur. In accordance with Column 2 adaptation statement of REACH Annex VII, this study would not need to be conducted if there are mitigating factors indicating that aquatic toxicity is unlikely to occur. This experimental determination has been performed to determine whether the decomposition products cause aquatic toxicity.

Test solutions

Details on test solutions:
As the substance did not completely dissolve, solutions were siphoned via glass wool.

Test organisms

Test organisms (species):
