Regulatory Information
Chemical: 1-Pentadecanol
Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000 (Repealed by Com. Implementing Reg. (EU) No 872/2012)
1-Pentadecanol is listed on the EPA's Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) system. Manufacturers and importers of 1-Pentadecanol are required to report information about their production and use of this chemical to the EPA under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). (40 eCFR Part 711)
1-Pentadecanol: Does not have an individual approval but may be used under an appropriate group standard
Other Safety InformationIMAP assessments - 1-Pentadecanol: Human health tier I assessment
Health HazardsLow toxicity. Excessive exposure produces some central nervous system depression. Prolonged contact produces skin irritation. (USCG, 1999)
Hazards Summary
Low toxicity, but overexposure can cause CNS depression and prolonged skin contact causes irritation; [CHRIS] Aliphatic alcohols are metabolized and eliminated efficiently; Not skin sensitizers; May have low-grade liver effects; CNS depression seen in shorter chain alcohols, e.g., 1-hexanol and 1-octanol; No evidence of adverse effects on reproductive organs, fertility, or the developing fetus in repeated dose animal studies; Not likely to be carcinogenic; [Reference #1] May cause irritation; [Alfa Aesar MSDS]
Reactive GroupAlcohols and Polyols
Reactivity Profile
PENTADECANOL is an alcohol. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert them to aldehydes or ketones. Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides.
Air and Water ReactionsNo rapid reaction with air. No rapid reaction with water.
