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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Additional information
The registration substance is a transported isolated intermediate and will therefore be used under strictly controlled conditions in line with article 18, 4.(b) of the REACH regulation EC1907/2006 which states "procedural and control technologies shall be used that minimise emission and any resulting exposure", and therefore no exposure to the environment is expected. A CSR is not needed for this substance and therefore PNEC values have not been calculated.
Conclusion on classification
Classification and labelling has been based upon the key information for the ecotoxicity endpoints. The results of these studies are as follows:
96 h LC50 (for fish) = > 0.52 mg/L. (Migchielsen, 2004)
24 h EC50 (for daphnia) = < 0.13 mg/L. (Ciba-Geigy, 1988)
72 h EC50 (for algae) = > 0.43 mg/L. (Ciba-Geigy, 1988)
It should also be considered that the substance does not meet the definition of a readily biodegradable substance (Hanstveit, 2003).
The lowest result is the 24 h EC50 daphnia result presented by Ciba-Geigy, 1988 of < 0.13 mg/L is suitable for classification and labelling and this meets the criteria under Directive 67/548/EEC and EC Regulation 1272/2008 as follows:
Directive 67/548/EEC:
R50 and R53: Very toxic to aquatic organisms and May cause long-term adverse effects to the aquatic environment.
EC Regulation 1272/2008:
Hazardous to the aquatic environment, Acute: Category 1. Chronic: Category 1
M factor = 1 (selected on the assumption that the EC50 is approximately 0.13 mg/L)
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.
