Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Biodegradation in water: screening tests
The screening test inherent to the biodegradability of the substance was calculated using the software BIOWIN v4.10.
The results indicate that 1-chloro-3-nitrobenzene is not expected to be readily biodegradable.
Biodegradation in water: screening tests
Half life period of 1-chloro-3-nitrobenzene in water is observed to be 37.5 days (900 hrs.) while in sediment it is 337.5 days (8100 hrs). Based on these half life values of 1-chloro-3-nitrobenzene, it is concluded that the chemical is not persistent in water and sediment.
Biodegradation in soil
EPI Suite has estimated that 1-chloro-3-nitrobenzene is expected to be found not predominantly in soil and its not persistence estimate is based on its transformation in this medium. Its half-life in soil, 75 days (1800 hrs), does not exceeds the threshold of 120 days as per Annex XIII of REACH.
Therefore, 1-chloro-3-nitrobenzene is estimated to be not persistent in the soil environment.
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.
