SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

NIOSH considers coal tar pitch volatiles to be potential occupational carcinogens. Coal tar pitch volatiles

Upon heating, toxic fumes are formed. Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic fumes.

Chemical stability

Stable under recommended storage conditions.[Sigma-Aldrich; Safety Data Sheet for Indeno

Possibility of hazardous reactions

IP itself burns only with difficulty.Vigorous reactions, sometimes amounting to explosions, can result from the contact between aromatic hydrocarbons, such as INDENO(1,2,3-CD)PYRENE, and strong oxidizing agents. They can react exothermically with bases and with diazo compounds. Substitution at the benzene nucleus occurs by halogenation (acid catalyst), nitration, sulfonation, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction.

Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: In a 240 day soil microcosm study, half-lives of 600, 730, and 630 days at 10, 20, and 30 deg C, respectively, were estimated for indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene(1). Half-lives for indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene ranged from 730 days, using a synthetic mixture of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons applied and incubated together in Kidman sandy loam soil, to 139 days in a mixture of oil refinery wastes applied to Kidman sandy loam soil(2). A half-life of 288 days was observed for indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene when applied and incubated as a single constituent in Kidman sandy loam soil(2). Biodegradation half-lives of 288 and 289 days were observed for indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene in Kidman and McLaurin sandy loam soils, respectively(3). In soil-water slurry systems, with actual town gas soil, indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene was biodegraded approx. 33% after 5 weeks incubation using a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon- acclimated mixed culture(4). In bench-scale biotreatability studies using a solid-phase bioremediation process (land farming chambers containing sediment and soil collected from the American Creosote Works Superfund site, Pensacola, FL), the indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene concentration was reduced from 29.7 to 29.2 mg/land farming chamber in unamended surface soil; 29.7 to 24.3 mg/land farming chamber in nutrient-amended surface soil; 67.8 to 54.0 mg/land farming chamber in unamended sediment; and 67.8 to 47.4 mg/land farming chamber in nutrient-amended sediment following 12 weeks incubation(5). In shake flask studies, an initial indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene concentration of 1.9 ug/mL was reduced to 0.9 ug/mL following 2 weeks incubation in contaminated groundwater from the American Creosote Works Superfund site, Pensacola, FL(6). Indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene was removed up to 95% over 36 days in an activated sludge pilot reactor, 40-65% was attributed to biodegradation(7). After 60 days of batch slurry bioremediation, the initial solid-phase indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene concentration of 37 ug/g was reduced to 17.1 ug/g, a 53.8% removal(8).

Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated BCF of 12,000 was calculated in fish for indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 6.70(1) and a regression-derived equation(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is very high(SRC), provided the compound is not metabolized by the organism(SRC). Polyaromatic hydrocarbons, including indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, have been shown to be rapidly metabolized by some aquatic organisms(3). A BCF of approximately 1X10+4 was measured in the amphipod Rhepoxynius abronius after 10 days exposure to indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene(4). The biota-sediment accumulation factor (BSAF) for indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene determined using oligochaete worm (Lumbriculus variegatus) was 1.7 and 0.0094 in Lake Erie sediment from Vermilion, OH and Dunkirk, NY, respectively(5). The BSAF of indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene was measured in polychaete (Nereis diversicolor) and gastropod (Hinia reticulata) exposed to sediment from three harbors in Norway at 0.0022-0.010 and 0.008-0.016(6).

Mobility in soil

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene can be estimated to be 1.9X10+6(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene is expected to be immobile in soil. Log Koc values of 6.84 to 6.88 and 6.8 were determined for indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene with dissolved and particulate organic material, respectively, from Lake Ketelmeer at 20 deg C(3). The log Koc value of indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene measured in sediment from San Francisco Bay was 6.93(4). The log Koc values for indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene in 34 sediment samples was 5.78-8.82(5). [
