Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Based on QSAR calculations using the weighted measured log Kow value, the C8 alcohol is expected to have a 14-day EC50 of 178.328 mg/kg soil.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Short-term EC50 or LC50 for soil macroorganisms:
- 178.328 mg/kg soil dw
Additional information
There are no experimental data using standard testing procedures that can be used for assessing the terrestrial hazard of isooctanol. However, there is a calculated (ECOSAR) earthworm 14-day LC50 value of 178.328 mg/kg soil. The modeled earthworm data would suggest that Alcohols, C7 -9 -iso-, C8 -rich has a low order of toxicity to soil dwelling organisms. However, it is possible to qualitatively conclude, based on available QSAR data, that this substance does not pose an unacceptable risk to the terrestrial compartment.
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.
