Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
One study is available testing the bioconcentration potential of Reaction mass of 1,1'-(isopropylidene)bis[3,5-dibromo-4-(2,3-dibromo-2-methylpropoxy)benzene] and 1,3-dibromo-2-(2,3-dibromo-2-methylpropoxy)-5-{2-[3,5-dibromo-4-(2,3,3-tribromo-2-methylpropoxy)phenyl]propan-2-yl}benzene in fish.
In the available study conducted according to OECD 305 (1996) Cyprinus carpio (carp) was exposed for 63 d to the test item (Shinde, 2013). Two concentration levels of 0.01 mg/L and 0.001 mg/L (nominal) and a control were tested. Tetrahydrofuran was used as a vehicle in a continuous flow-through dilution system. The solvent was higher concentrated than recommended by the guideline (25 ml/L instead of max 0.1 mL/L). Pre-treated samples were analytically measured by UPLC. The BCF was found to lie between <9 and 45 at the high concentration level of the test item and between <76 and 94 at the low concentration level. BCF steady state could however not be calculated and the bioconcentration factors were not corrected for lipid content.
Since the above described study shows certain limitations a QSAR (BCFBAF v3.01, EPISUITE v 4.11) calculation was additionally performed. The BC factor was calculated to be 60.74 L/kg for the upper trophic including a biotransformation rate of 0.0001852 /day (for 10 g fish). The substance does not meet completely the applicability domain of the model (log Kow > 9 and molecular weight > 959.17) and therefore results have to be observed with caution.
Physicochemical and toxicokinetic data were additionally taken into account and give further evidence about the bioaccumulative fate of Reaction mass of 1,1'-(isopropylidene)bis[3,5-dibromo-4-(2,3-dibromo-2-methylpropoxy)benzene] and 1,3-dibromo-2-(2,3-dibromo-2-methylpropoxy)-5-{2-[3,5-dibromo-4-(2,3,3-tribromo-2-methylpropoxy)phenyl]propan-2-yl}benzene. The high molecular weight and the very high log Kow of > 10 (OECD 117) indicate according to guideline (EC) No 1907/2006 low bioaccumulation possibility due to low bioavailability. This is further encouraged by the toxicokinetic assessment which can be read in detail in chapter 7.1.
Considering all above mentioned evidence Reaction mass of 1,1'-(isopropylidene)bis[3,5-dibromo-4-(2,3-dibromo-2-methylpropoxy)benzene] and 1,3-dibromo-2-(2,3-dibromo-2-methylpropoxy)-5-{2-[3,5-dibromo-4-(2,3,3-tribromo-2-methylpropoxy)phenyl]propan-2-yl}benzene is not expected to bioaccumulate in organisms.
