Description of key information

The registered substance is readily biodegradable but failing the 14-days window in an OECD 301D biodegradability screening study, thus it is not considered persistent in the environment.


During an advanced OECD 301F study on the registered substance , which included substance specific analyses for both the Parent and the primary metabolite, the DT50 and DT90 of the Parent was determined to be between 1 hour and 24 hours, respectively. Detectable quantities of the Primary Metabolite (2.methyl-2-(1,2,4-trimethylpent-2-enyloxy)propan-1-ol) appeared after 1 hour of incubation and attained a maximum equivalent to 30% of the applied starting material after 48 hours, before demonstrating a gradual decline to less than one-third of this value within the following 4 day period. The expected DT50 of the Primary Metabolite is less than 96 hours. At the end of the test (Day 28) neither Parent nor Primary Metabolite were observed (less than Limit of Detection, equivalent to 0.015% of the Parent starting concentration).


Regarding the abiotic degradation, the half-life times values at 25°C were determined to be 1.6 days, 107.2 days and 49.2 days for pH 4, pH 7 and pH 9, respectively.


The registered substance is considered environmentally immobile in soils (according to P.J. McCall et al., 1981) with a Koc value at 5012 L/kg (log Koc = 3.7).


Finally, with a log Kow value at 4.4, the registered substance is considered to be non bioaccumulable according to PBT screening criteria (< 4.5).
