Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Since 2 -methylbut-2-ene (2M2B) is concluded to be an in vivo mutagen (Cat 2, H341 under GHS/CLP) with no relevant dose-response information and no cancer data, neither a DMEL nor a DNEL can be derived.

 

A qualitative assessment is therefore considered. Since 2M2B is assigned the H-phrase H341 (suspected of causing genetic defects), it is allocated to the high hazard category on the basis that exposure to such substances should be strictly contained because they may cause serious health effects for which a dose threshold is not usually identifiable (TGD Section E.3.4)

 

With the strict control measures for a non-threshold mutagen, applying the RMMs/OCs as stipulated for the high hazard category, exposure control is considered to be sufficient and will cover any other relevant effects for which DNELs can be derived, for all routes of exposure.

 

In accordance with REACH guidance, it is concluded that this qualitative risk characterisation is sufficient and there is no need to conduct a quantitative risk characterisation.

Additional information - General Population

Since 2M2B is concluded to be an invivo mutagen (Cat 2, H341 under GHS/CLP)

with no relevant dose-response information and no cancer data, neither a DMEL nor a DNEL can be derived.

No consumer exposure is anticipated.
