SECTION 12: Ecological information

12.1 Toxicity

Toxicity to fish: no data available
Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
Toxicity to algae: no data available
Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available

12.2 Persistence and degradability

3,3'-Dimethoxybenzidine was reported to be resistant to biodegradation in the Japanese MITI test(1). At low levels of yeast extract, 3,3'-dimethyoxybenzidine showed no consistent degradation in an OECD AFNOR sewage die-away test and it was not classified as readily biodegradable; only high levels of yeast extract (100-200 mg/l) enchanced the biodegradation of this compound(2). 3,3'-Dimethyoxybenzidine at 35 deg C and an initial concn of 100 mg/l in the presence of an anaerobic sludge inoculum degraded 100% in 42 days(3).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated BCF of 5 was calculated for 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine(SRC), using a log Kow of 1.81(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

12.4 Mobility in soil

The Koc of 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine is estimated as 230(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 1.81(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC). The first pKa of 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine is estimated as 4.2(SRC), using an estimation method based on perturbed molecular orbital theory and linear free energy (LFER) methods(4). This estimated pKa indicates that 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine will partially exist in the protonated form under acidic conditions and cations have greater adsorption to soils than neutral molecules(SRC). Furthermore, 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine is an aromatic amine which may form covalent bonds with humic materials resulting in relatively immobile quinone-like complexes(5).

12.5 Other adverse effects

no data available

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations

13.1 Disposal methods

Product

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.

Contaminated packaging

Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
