| Umweltverhalten | TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 430(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that linalyl acetate is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of linalyl acetate from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.7X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(2). Linalyl acetate has a reported vapor pressure of 0.111 mm Hg(3) and exists as a liquid under environmental conditionstherefore, linalyl acetate may volatilize from dry soil(SRC). A 75% of Theoretical BOD using activated sludge in the Japanese MITI test(4) suggests that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 430(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that linalyl acetate 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 1.7X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(2). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 4.8 hours and 5.8 days, respectively(SRC). The hydrolysis half-life is <24 hours at 20 °C, with expected end products of linalool and acetic acid(4). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 180(SRC), from its log Kow of 3.93(6) and a regression-derived equation(2), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC). A 75% of Theoretical BOD using activated sludge in the Japanese MITI test(4) suggests that biodegradation is 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), linalyl acetate, which has a vapor pressure of 0.111 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase linalyl acetate is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals and ozone(SRC)the half-lives for these reactions in air are estimated to be 200 and 38 minutes, respectively(SRC), calculated from respective rate constants of 1.2X10-10 and 4.3X10-16 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that were derived using structure estimation methods(3). Linalyl acetate may also react with nitrate radicals in the atmosphere(4). Linalyl acetate does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(5) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC). |

| Toxizitätsübersicht | IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Linalyl acetate is a clear, colorless, oily liquid. It is an excellent fragrance material. It can also be employed in soaps and detergents and as a food additive. It is a component of oil paint. It is used in extracts and as a substitute for petitgrain oil. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Application of linalyl acetate in acetone (33%) to the back of male volunteers without known allergies during 48 hours under occlusion did not induce signs of irritation up to 120 hours after removal of the patch. Linalyl acetate is identified as one of the constituents of lavender oil that may cause allergic reactions. Oxidized linalyl acetate could be a common fragrance contact allergen. The potential genotoxicity of linalyl acetate, was evaluated in vitro by the micronucleus test on peripheral human lymphocytes. In the range of non-toxic concentrations (0.5-100 ug/mL), linalyl acetate increased the frequency of micronuclei significantly and in concentration-dependent manner. In a chromosome aberration test with human lymphocytes, linalyl acetate did not induce aberrations, both with and without S-9 mix. ANIMAL STUDIES: Inhalation exposure of mice to 2.74 mg linalyl acetate/L air during 90 minutes led to reduced motor activity compared to untreated controls. The effect was more severe in mice aged 6-8 weeks (up to 100% reduction) than in mice of 6 months (up to 81% reduction). In mice dermal coapplication of linalyl acetate (3 mg in 0.1 mL acetone) with benzo(a)pyrene did slightly increase the number of skin papillomas and carcinomas compared to benzo(a)pyrene controls. An Ames test was performed with linalyl acetate in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA97, TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA102 with and without metabolic activation. Linalyl acetate was found to be not mutagenic in this assay. An in vitro unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) assay was negative in primary rat hepatocytes at doses up to 300 nL/mL. ECOTOXICITY STUDIES: In a 96-hour flow-through test with carps (Cyprinus carpio), fish were exposed to 10, 18, 32, 56 and 100 mg/L (nominal concentrations). Mean measured concentrations were 7.9, 12.3, 20.1, 27.3 and 27.2 mg/L. At the highest concentrations (32 mg/L and above) all fish died. At all concentrations hypoactive swimming behavior, loss of equilibrium and/or immobility was observed. |

Herstellung & Synthese
synthetische
Linalyl acetate is synthesized by two methods: 1) Esterification of linalool requires special reaction conditions since it tends to undergo dehydration and cyclization as it is an unsaturated tertiary alcohol. These reactions can be avoided as follows: esterification with ketene in the presence of an acidic esterification catalyst below 30 °C results in the formation of linalyl acetate without any by-products. Esterification can be achieved in good yield, with boiling acetic anhydride, whereby the acetic acid is distilled off as it is formed; a large excess of acetic anhydride must be maintained by continuous addition of anhydride to the still vessel. Highly pure linalyl acetate can be obtained by transesterification of tert-butyl acetate with linalool in the presence of sodium methylate and by continuous removal of the tert-butanol formed in the process. 2) Dehydrolinalool, obtained by ethynylation of 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, can be converted into dehydrolinalyl acetatewith acetic anhydride in the presence of an acidic esterification catalyst. Partial hydrogenation of the triple bond to linalyl acetate can be carried out with, for example, palladium catalysts deactivated with lead.
