For 2 -pyrrolidone an overall OH rate constant (gas-phase reaction constant) of 11.9334 E-12 cm3/molecule-sec and a half-life of 0.448 days (10.756 hours; based on a 24 -h day) was calculated.

Description of key information

The tropospheric half-life of 2-Pyrrolidone was estimated based on a calculation with the scientifically accepted EPI-Win software tool of US-EPA (AOP-Win, v.1.92; Chemservice S.A., 2010, updated 2019/2020). In the atmosphere 2-pyrrolidone is expected to be indirectly photodegraded with a half life of ca. 10.8 hours (based on a 12-h as well as a 24-h day). The calculation indicates a rapid degradation of 2-pyrrolidone when potentially entering the atmosphere. It is not to be expected that 2-pyrrolidone will accumulate in the air or be transported in the gaseous phase over long distances. Hence, air will not be an environmental compartment of concern for the compound.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Half-life in air:
10.8 h
