Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Short-term toxicity to fish:

Parent compound: 96-h LC50 = ca. 46.4 mg/L (BASF AG, 1999)

Hydrolysis product sec-butanol: 96 -h LC50 = 3670 mg/L (OECD, 2002)

Hydrolysis product HCl: 96 -h LC50 = 4.92 mg/L (OECD, 2002)

Short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates:

Parent compound: no data

Hydrolysis product sec-butanol: 48 -h EC50 = 4227 mg/L (D. magna) (OECD, 2002)

Hydrolysis product HCl: 48 -h EC50 = 0.492 mg/L (OECD, 2002)

Long-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates:

No relevant and reliable data available.

Growth inhibition to aquatic algae:

Parent compound: no data

Hydrolysis product sec-butanol (weight-of-evidence): EC50 > 100 mg/L

Hydrolysis product HCl: 72 -h EC50 = 0.492 mg/L; NOEC = 0.097 mg/L (OECD, 2002)

Toxicity to microorganisms:

Parent compound: no data

Analogous compound isopropyl chloroformate: Activated sludge respiration inhibition: 30 -min EC0 = 2527 mg/L (BASF, 1983); covering also the hydrolysis products isopropanol and HCl

Hydrolysis product sec-butanol: Pseudomonas putida 16 -h EC0 = ca. 500 mg/L (OECD, 2002)

An inhibition of the degradation activity of activated sludge is not expected when introduced to biological treatment plants in appropriate low concentrations.
