NTP: Reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen

A study of male workers engaged in the manufacture of 1,3-dichloropropene indicated no significant effect on fertility at exposure levels occurring in the work environment. No evidence of developmental toxicity was observed in rats or rabbits exposed to 1,3-dichloropropene by inhalation, but significant maternal toxicity was seen in both species. In one study of rats exposed by inhalation, fewer fetuses per litter were reported at the highest exposure concentration but maternal toxicity was also observed. In other studies, no adverse reproductive effects were observed in rats and mice exposed by inhalation.

The substance is irritating to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system.

Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization. This substance is possibly carcinogenic to humans.

A harmful contamination of the air can be reached very quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.

AEROBIC: 1,3-Dichloropropene, present at 100 mg/L, reached 3% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test which classified the compound as not readily biodegradable(1); additional degradation was observed yielding 3-chloro-2-propen-1-ol(1), possibly from hydrolysis and degradation of the hydrolysis products(SRC). A BOD dilution water study using settled domestic wastewater as the microbia1 inoculum found that 5-10 mg/L concentrations of 1,3-dichloropropene were degraded by 54-85% after 7 days of incubation with the faster rates achieved following weekly adaptations(1); however, the rate of biodegradation for 1,3-dichloropropene in natural waters cannot be inferred from this screening study data(3). Common soil bacteria were able to utilize 1,3-dichloropropene as a sole carbon source in pure culture studies(4). Twelve weeks after labeled cis- or trans-1,3-dichloropropene was added to soil and stored in sealed containers, 19% of the cis and 18% of the trans isomers remained in sandy loam and 10% of cis and 22% of trans isomer remained in medium loam(5). After 20 weeks, 5% and 4% of the cis and trans isomer, respectively, remained in sandy loam and 3% and 14%, respectively remained in the medium loam(5); the half-life of the applied dichloropropenes were 3-4 weeks; it was possible that some of the parent compound was lost by volatilization(5). 14C-1,3-Dichloropropene, added at 100 ug/g soil and incubated aerobically in the dark at 25 deg C, displayed half-lives of 1.8, 12.3, and 61 days using Wahiawa silt clay, Catlin silt loam, and Fuquay loamy sand, respectively(6); degradation products were 3-chloroallyl alcohol, 3-chloroacrylic acid, numerous minor carboxylic acid metabolites, and carbon dioxide(6). Degradation of 1,3-dichloropropene was greatly enhanced in amended soils compared to the unamended soil, and the degree of acceleration varied with the type as well as the rate of amendment(7); compost manure was more effective in stimulating 1,3-dichloropropene degradation than a less decomposed biosolid-manure mix; the acceleration in compost manure-amended soils was a combined result of enhanced chemical and microbial degradation, since sterilization only partially reduced the enhanced degradation(7). Complete mineralization of 1,3-dichloropropene, based on chloride release, can be a matter of years(8). A 5 ug/mL test compound added to a sediment sample from a drainage ditch at an agricultural field station in Marcham, England was readily converted to 3-chloropropionic acid(9). 1,3-Dichloropropene is degraded more rapidly in soil that has a history of treatment with this pesticide than in previously untreated soil(3). While the degradation rates of the cis- and trans- isomers are similar in untreated soil, degradation in previously treated soil has been shown to be more rapid for trans-1,3-dichloropropene than for cis-1,3-dichloropropene(3).

An estimated BCF of 10 was calculated in fish for 1,3-dichloropropene(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.04 (average for the cis- and trans-isomers)(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

Measured Koc values of 23 and 26 for the cis- and trans- isomers of 1,3-dichloropropene, respectively, have been reported(1). The average Koc for 3 soils with organic carbon of 3.19%, 10.4%, and 55.1% was 27 and 28 for cis- and trans-1,3-dichloropropene, respectively(2). The average maximum Koc values were 20 for sand, 25 for loamy sand, and 41 and 42 for two clay soils(3). According to a classification scheme(4), these Koc values suggest that 1,3-dichloropropene is expected to have very high mobility in soil. The adsorption onto soil from the vapor is greater for the trans- than the cis- isomer(3). The adsorption isotherm for the vapor/soil system is linear(3). When 1,3-dichloropropene is used in farm fields, it is sprayed directly on the ground or injected into the soil(5). Once in the soil, it can exist as a gas or dissolved in water. 1,3-Dichloropropene can adsorb more strongly to soil when it is in the vapor phase than when it is dissolved in water(5). Vapor-phase adsorption can be approximately 3-times greater at 2 deg C than it is at 20 deg C, and adsorption isotherms measured for humus sand, peaty sand, and peat indicate vapor-phase Koc values ranging from 450 to 750(5). According to a classification scheme(4), these vapor-phase Koc values suggest that 1,3-dichloropropene may have moderate to low mobility in soil.

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.

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.
