Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusion on classification

Environmental fate information: It was concluded that 2-fluoronitrobenzene is:

- not readily biodegradable based on the predictions from the EPI-Suite model BIOWWIN.

- not potentially bioaccumulative based on an experimental value of log Kow of 1.69 (Hansch et al. 1995).

Ecotoxicity information: An acute ecotoxicity study is available on daphnids and reveals that 2-fluoronitrobenzene is toxic to aquatic invertebrates; the EC50 being comprised between 1 and 10 mg/L (48h-EC50 (Daphnia magna) = 9.7 mg/L).

Conclusion on environmental classification: Considering 2-fluoronitrobenzene as not rapidly degradable and toxic to aquatic invertebrates, it has to be considered as toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects and has to be classified in category 2 for chronic aquatic hazard under CLP. The same classification applies under UN-GHS and a classification in category 2 for acute aquatic hazard has also to be added under this system.
