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

Data on the long-term toxicity of 2,2-bis[[(1-oxoheptyl)oxy]methyl]propane-1,3-diyl bisheptanoate (CAS 25811-35-2) to aquatic organisms are not available. Therefore, in accordance to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 Annex XI, 1.5, a read across to the structurally related substance decanoic acid, mixed esters with heptanoic acid, octanoic acid, pentaerythritol and valeric acid (CAS No. 71010-76-9) was conducted. This read-across is justified in detail in the overall summary (IUCLID section 6.1) and within the analogue justification in IUCLID Section 13.
One study investigating the long-term toxicity of decanoic acid, mixed esters with heptanoic acid, octanoic acid, pentaerythritol and valeric acid (CAS No. 71010-76-9) to aquatic invertebrates is available (Letinski & Bragin, 2012). The GLP study was conducted under semi-static conditions according to OECD 211 using Daphnia magna as test organism. A loading rate of 135 mg/L (nominal) was applied in the limit test. No significant effect on reproduction was observed in the treatment throughout the test period of 21 days. Hence, the 21 d-NOELR is determined to be > 135 mg/L on the basis of the nominal test concentration. No toxic effects on aquatic organisms were observed up to the limit of water solubility. Based on the available results from a structurally related read-across substance (in accordance to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 Annex XI, 1.5) which is characterized by a similar ecotoxicological profile and comparable structure, it can be concluded that 2,2-bis[[(1-oxoheptyl)oxy]methyl]propane-1,3-diyl bisheptanoate (CAS 25811-35-2) will not exhibit long-term effects on aquatic invertebrates up to the limit of water solubility.
