Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

PNECs were derived using freshwater experimental ecotoxicity results for propane-1-thiol and ethanethiol along with calculated values for Koc and Henry's Law Constant. The PNECS derived using experimental data were based on Klimisch 1 or 2 studies (Klimisch et al 1997).

Conclusion on classification

The results of these studies indicate that propane-1-thiol would be classified as Acute and Chronic Category 1 under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, with the hazard statements "very toxic to aquatic life" and "very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects". With the lowest acute result of EC50 of 0.07 mg/L, propane-1-thiol falls within the multiplying factor category of 0.01 < L(E)C50 ≤0.1 and so an M-factor of 10 has been applied for both chronic and acute effects.
