| RCRA-Anforderungen | U185As stipulated in 40 CFR 261.33, when pentachloronitrobenzene, as a commercial chemical product or manufacturing chemical intermediate or an off-specification commercial chemical product or a manufacturing chemical intermediate, becomes a waste, it must be managed according to Federal and/or State hazardous waste regulations. Also defined as a hazardous waste is any residue, contaminated soil, water, or other debris resulting from the cleanup of a spill, into water or on dry land, of this waste. Generators of small quantities of this waste may qualify for partial exclusion from hazardous waste regulations (40 CFR 261.5). |
| FIFRA-Anforderungen | A tolerance of 0.1 part per million is established for negligible residues of the fungicide pentachloronitrobenzene in or on the raw agricultural commodity cotton, undelinted seed.Tolerances with regional registration (refer to section 180.1(n)) are established for the combined residues of the fungicides pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB) and its metabolites pentachloroaniline (PCA) and methyl pentachlorophenyl sulfide (MPCPS) in or on the following raw agricultural commodities: [Table#3525]While petitions for tolerances for negligible residues are pending and until action is completed on these petitions, interim tolerances are established for residues of the listed pesticide chemicals in or on the following raw agricultural commodities: Substance: pentachloronitrobenzeneUses: fungicideTolerence in parts per million: 1.0Raw agricultural commodity: peanut.The Agency has completed its assessment of the dietary, occupational, residential, environmental, and ecological risks, and the benefits associated with the use of pesticide products containing the active ingredient PCNB. Based on the assessments and on public comments on the assessments, the Agency is announcing decisions about the human health and ecological effects associated with PCNB, including tolerance reassessment decisions under FFDCA and reregistration decisions under FIFRA as amended by FQPA. The Agency has determined that PCNB-containing products for some uses are eligible for reregistration provided that the risk mitigation measures outlined in this document are adopted and label amendments are made to reflect those mitigation measures.As the federal pesticide law FIFRA directs, EPA is conducting a comprehensive review of older pesticides to consider their health and environmental effects and make decisions about their future use. Under this pesticide reregistration program, EPA examines health and safety data for pesticide active ingredients initially registered before November 1, 1984, and determines whether they are eligible for reregistration. In addition, all pesticides must meet the new safety standard of the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996. Quintozene is found on List A, which contains most food use pesticides and consists of the 194 chemical cases (or 350 individual active ingredients) for which EPA issued registration standards prior to FIFRA, as amended in 1988. Case No: 0128Pesticide type: fungicideRegistration Standard Date: 01/31/87Case Status: OPP is reviewing data from the pesticide's producers regarding its human health and/or environmental effects, or OPP is determining the pesticide's eligibility for reregistration and developing the Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) document.Active ingredient (AI): quintozeneData Call-in (DCI) Date(s): 08/27/90, 12/21/93, 10/13/95AI Status: The producers of the pesticide has made commitments to conduct the studies and pay the fees required for reregistration, and are meeting those commitments in a timely manner. |

| Körperbelastung | Pentachloronitrobenzene was occasionally detected in the blood of 300 randomly selected individuals in Germanyunreported concentrations and frequency(1). Pentachloronitrobenzene was analyzed for in blood samples taken from July 2001 through December 2002 collected from 32 obese patients with endocrine problems and who resided in Rome, Italythe compound was not detected(2). |
| Wechselwirkungen | Pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB) and HgCl2, PCNB and CdCl2, and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) and HgCl2 were investigated for their acute oral toxicity in rats, individually and as combinations in various ratios of the organochlorine pesticides to the heavy metal chlorides. The toxicity of mixtures of low dosages of the pairs tested was higher than the sum of the toxicities produced by the individual doses. At increased dosages of the components in the combinations PCNB-HgCl2 and PCNB-CdCl2, the combined lethality tended towards the sums of the effects of the individual doses.Acute administration of PCNB enhances susceptibility of rats to poisoning by carbon tetrachloride. |

| Umweltverhalten | TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 20,000(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that pentachloronitrobenzene is expected to be immobile in soil(SRC). Volatilization of pentachloronitrobenzene from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.4X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), based upon its vapor pressure, 5.0X10-5 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 0.44 mg/L(5). Pentachloronitrobenzene is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(4). However, adsorption to soil is expected to attenuate volatilization(SRC). Soil half-lives ranging from 213 to 699 days(6) suggest that biodegradation is not an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 20,000(2), indicates that pentachloronitrobenzene is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.4X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 5.0X10-5 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 0.44 mg/L(5). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 39 hours and 17 days, respectively(SRC). However, volatilization from water surfaces is expected to be attenuated by adsorption to suspended solids and sediment in the water column. The estimated volatilization half-life from a model pond is 44 months if adsorption is considered(6). According to a classification scheme(7), BCF values ranging from 238(8) to 1,140(9) suggesting the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high to very high(SRC). Aqueous photolysis half-lives of 2.5 days and 26.8 hours at pH 5 have been reported(10). Results of river: sediment biodegradation studies on pentachloronitrobenzene reveal first-order rate constants that are not that much different than those in sterile water, first order biodegradation rate constant of 0.00456-0.00481/hr vs 0.00380 for a sterile sediment:water system(11), suggesting that biodegradation is not an important environmental fate process in water(SRC).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), pentachloronitrobenzene, which has a vapor pressure of 5.0X10-5 mm Hg at 20 °C(2), will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase pentachloronitrobenzene is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC)the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 6 years(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 7.2X10-15 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). Particulate-phase pentachloronitrobenzene may be removed from the air by wet or dry deposition(SRC). Pentachloronitrobenzene does contain chromophores that absorb at wavelngths greater than 290 nm(4) and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC). |

| Milk Concentrations | Pentachloronitrobenzene was not detected in milk samples collected from 45 US nationwide dairy plants in July, 2000 and again in January 2001(1).In milk from cows treated with PCNB, traces of pentachloronitrobenzene were observed in addition to pentachloroaniline and methyl pentachlorophenyl sulfide. |
| Average Daily Intake | The average daily intake of pentachloronitrobenzene in the US during the fiscal years 1971-76 was 9X10-7 mg/kg body wt/ day(1). Average daily intakes (ug/kg body wt/day) of pentachloronitrobenzene in US total diet studies for fiscal years 1977 and 1978 were: 0.0010 and 0.0007 for adults(2), 0.0014 and 0.0045 for infants(3), and 0.0029 and 0.0026 for toddlers(3). Average daily intakes (ug/kg body wt/day) of pentachloronitrobenzene in US total diet studies for fiscal years 1976 and 1979 were: 0.002 and 0.002 for infants and 0.004 and 0.002 for toddlers, respectively(4). Average daily intakes (ug/kg body wt/day) of pentachloronitrobenzene in US total diet studies for fiscal years 1980 and 1981/82 were: 0.001 and 0.001 for adults(5), not detected and 0.003 for infants, and 0.001 and 0.001 for toddlers, respectively(6). The average daily intake of pentachloronitrobenzene in Belgium from 1991 to 1993 from 3698 samples of food was determined to be 0.007 mg/kg/day(7). |
| Ökotoxizitätsauszüge | /BIRDS and MAMMALS/ Signs of intoxication /in mallard ducks or ring-necked pheasants given oral LD50 doses were/ ataxia, tenseness, jerkiness, jitteriness, hyperexcitability, slow and disoriented reactions, goose-stepping, ataxia, and sitting. After treatment, signs appeared as soon as 1 hr in mallards and 3 days in pheasants. Remission took up to 15 days in mallards and 7 days in pheasants./AQUATIC SPECIES/ At its maximum solubility (1.2 mg/L water), there were no fatalities amongst golden orfe and rainbow trout over a period of 96 hours./AQUATIC SPECIES/ Shortly (3-6 hr) after exposure to either the fungicide pentachloronitrobenzene or 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene the pool of reduced glutathione in Fusarium oxysporum ... and Rhizoctonia solani is drastically depleted, followed by a gradual increase in glutathione levels. A similar pattern regarding the effect of the above compounds on glutathione-S-transferase specific activity was observed in both fungi. There are no significant differences in either glutathione levels or glutathione-s-transferase specific activities in Fusarium oxysprum and Rhizoctonia solani, tolerant and sensitive to pentachloronitrobenzene, respectively. |
| Plant Concentrations | When cotton seeds were planted in soil containing 300 ppm pentachloronitrobenzene, two-week old plants (excluding the root portion) contained 155 ppm pentachloronitrobenzene(1). Pentachloronitrobenzene concentrations (mg/kg) in various field crops grown in Finland, together with the total amount of pentachloronitrobenzene (kg/ha) applied given in parentheses, and the years applied were as follows: 0.003 (rye,5, 1975), 0.005 (rye,5, 1975), 0.07 (rye,5, 1975), 0.005 (clover,5, 1975), 0.14 (wheat,50, 1966-75), 0.05 (wheat 5, 1975), 0 (rye, untreated), and 0 (clover, untreated)(2). Pentachloronitrobenzene concn in field corn kernels was 0.01 ppm(3). The ratio of plant to soil concentration (fresh weight: fresh weight) for head lettuce, late harvest lettuce, potatoes, leaf chicory, and grass above 5 cm was 0.023-0.036, 0.44, 0.01, 0.004, and 0.004, respectively(4). |
| Luftstandards | Listed as a hazardous air pollutant (HAP) generally known or suspected to cause serious health problems. The Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990, directs EPA to set standards requiring major sources to sharply reduce routine emissions of toxic pollutants. EPA is required to establish and phase in specific performance based standards for all air emission sources that emit one or more of the listed pollutants. Pentachloronitrobenzene is included on this list. |
| CERCLA-Meldepflichtmengen | Persons in charge of vessels or facilities are required to notify the National Response Center (NRC) immediately, when there is a release of this designated hazardous substance, in an amount equal to or greater than its reportable quantity of 100 lb or 45.4 kg. The toll free number of the NRC is (800) 424-8802. The rule for determining when notification is required is stated in 40 CFR 302.4 (section IV. D.3.b). |
