TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 355(2) indicates that 2,5-dichloroaniline is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC). However, when released to soil containing humic material, 2,5-dichloroaniline may undergo a covalent chemical bonding resulting in its chemical alteration to a latent form resulting in strong adsorption(3). 2,5-Dichloroaniline demonstrated almost a linear rate of decomposition in Guelph loam over a 12 week period, with a half-life of 8 weeks(4). Volatilization of 2,5-dichloroaniline from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.6X10-6 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(5). 2,5-Dichloroaniline is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 1.5X10-2 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(6).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 355(2) indicates that 2,5-dichloroaniline is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment in water(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.6X10-6 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(4). Volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 30 and 219 days, respectively(SRC), using an estimation method(3). However, this model underestimates the volatilization half-life of 2,5-dichloroaniline since it does not take into account the effects of adsorption. The Koc of 355(2) suggests that volatilization could be attenuated by adsorption to suspended solids and sediments in water(SRC). This is apparent from the results of two EXAMS model runs, one in which the effect of adsorption was considered, yielding an estimated half-life of 662 days in a model pond 2 m deep, and one in which the effect of adsorption was ignored, yielding an estimated half-life of 317 days in a model pond 2 m deep(5). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 35(3,SRC), from a log Kow value of 2.92(2), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate.

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semi-volatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 2,5-dichloroaniline, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 1.5X10-2 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 2,5-dichloroaniline 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 17 hours(SRC) from its estimated rate constant of 2.2X10-12(3).

The Koc for 2,5-dichloroaniline is 355(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this Koc value suggests that 2,5-dichloroaniline is expected to have moderate mobility in soil. However, when released to soil containing humic material, 2,5-dichloroaniline may undergo a covalent chemical bonding resulting in its chemical alteration to a latent form resulting in strong adsorption(3).

2,5-Dichloroaniline's production and use as a dye intermediate(1) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC). Aromatic amines such as 2,5-dichloroaniline are introduced into the environment directly as industrial effluents and indirectly as transformation products from pesticides or pharmaceuticals(2). 2,5-Dichloroaniline has been identified as a degradation product of Acid Dye 13155(3).

The effects of dichlorine-substituted anilines on Guelph loam were studied. 2,5-Dichloroaniline at concentrations of 5 to 100 ug/g soil was inhibitory against the oxidation of the nitrogen of ammonia to nitrite nitrogen, but not nitrite nitrogen to nitrate nitrogen. It showed almost a linear rate of decomposition over the 12 wk period of the expt. The dichloroanilines were more persistent than aniline or the monochloroanilines.

2,5-Dichloroaniline demonstrated almost a linear rate of decomposition in Guelph loam over a 12 week period, with a half-life of 8 weeks(1). 2,5-Dichloroaniline has been classified as resistant to biodegradation (theoretical BOD of less than 30% over a 14-day incubation period using an activated sludge inocula) using the Japanese MITI test protocol(2-4). 2,5-Dichloroaniline, present at 100 mg/l, reached 0% of its theoretical BOD in 2 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/l and the Japanese MITI test(5). Using the modified OECD Screening Test (activated sludge inocula, 28 days aerobic incubation), less than 25% of initial 2,5-dichloroaniline was degraded based on DOC analysis(6). Using the modified AFNOR Test (28 days of incubation), 7% of initial 2,5-dichloroaniline was degraded based on DOC analysis(6).

An estimated BCF of 35 was calculated for 2,5-dichloroaniline(SRC), using log Kow of 2.92(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate.

The Henry's Law constant for 2,5-Dichloroaniline is estimated as 1.6X10-6 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) using a fragment constant estimation method(1). This Henry's Law constant indicates that 2,5-dichloroaniline is expected to volatilize from water surfaces(2). Based on this Henry's Law constant, the volatilization half-life from a model river (1 m deep, flowing 1 m/sec, wind velocity of 3 m/sec)(2) is estimated as approximately 30 days(SRC). The volatilization half-life from a model lake (1 m deep, flowing 0.05 m/sec, wind velocity of 0.5 m/sec)(2) is estimated as approximately 219 days(SRC). However, the volatilization half-life does not take into account the effects of adsorption. A Koc of 355(3) suggests that volatilization could be attenuated by adsorption to suspended solids and sediments in water(SRC). This is apparent from the results of two EXAMS model runs, one in which the effect of adsorption was considered, yielding an estimated half-life of 662 days in a model pond 2 m deep, and one in which the effect of adsorption was ignored, yielding an estimated half-life of 317 days in a model pond 2 m deep(4). 2,5-Dichloroaniline's Henry's Law constant(1) indicates that volatilization from moist soil surfaces may occur(SRC). 2,5-Dichloroaniline is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 1.5X10-2 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(5).

IN GUELPH LOAM, 2,5-DICHLOROANILINE, AT CONCN OF 5-100 UG/G SOIL, WAS INHIBITORY AGAINST THE OXIDN OF THE NITROGEN OF AMMONIA TO NITRITE NITROGEN BY NITROSOMONAS, BUT NOT NITRITE NITROGEN TO NITRATE. THE DICHLOROANILINES SHOWED INCREASED TOXICITY AGAINST NITROSOMONAS.

TWENTY-ONE HALO-SUBSTITUTED ANILINES WERE COMPARED WITH ANILINE FOR THEIR ABILITY TO STIMULATE METHEMOGLOBIN FORMATION IN CATS. HALO SUBSTITUTIONS IN THE 4-POSITION INCREASED THE ACTIVITY OF ANILINE, WHILE SUBSTITUTIONS IN THE 2 AND 3 POSITIONS DID NOT CHANGE OR REDUCE THE ACTIVITY. POLYHALO SUBSTITUENTS (SUCH AS 2,6-DICHLOROANILINE) REDUCED THE ACTIVITY COMPARED TO ANILINE. /DICHLOROANILINES/

The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of 2,5-dichloroaniline with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals has been estimated as 2.2X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 17 hours at an atmospheric concn of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm(1). 2,5-dichloroaniline is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of hydrolyzable functional groups(3) nor to directly photolyze due to the lack of absorption in the environmental UV spectrum.

Pursuant to section 8(d) of TSCA, EPA promulgated a model Health and Safety Data Reporting Rule. The section 8(d) model rule requires manufacturers, importers, and processors of listed chemical substances and mixtures to submit to EPA copies and lists of unpublished health and safety studies. 2,5-Dichlorobenzeneamine is included on this list.

This action promulgates standards of performance for equipment leaks of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) in the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI). The intended effect of these standards is to require all newly constructed, modified, and reconstructed SOCMI process units to use the best demonstrated system of continuous emission reduction for equipment leaks of VOC, considering costs, non air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements. 2,5-Dichloroaniline is produced, as an intermediate or a final product, by process units covered under this subpart.
