Hazard Classes and CategoriesAcute Tox. 4 (99.8%)Flammable liquids - Category 4
Skin, Eye, and Respiratory IrritationsThe low molecular weight aldehydes, the halogenated aliphatic aldehydes, and the unsaturated aldehydes are particularly irritating. /Aldehydes/
処分方法SRP: The most favorable course of action is to use an alternative chemical product with less inherent propensity for occupational exposure or environmental contamination. Recycle any unused portion of the material for its approved use or return it to the manufacturer or supplier. Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider: the material's impact on air qualitypotential migration in soil or watereffects on animal, aquatic, and plant lifeand conformance with environmental and public health regulations.
Preventive MeasuresSRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.
体内負荷p-Methylbenzaldehyde was detected in expired air at an average concentration of 6.5 ng/L from 28 human subjects(1). 5.6% of expired air samples from 54 human subjects contained 4-methylbenzaldehyde at a mean concentration of 3.3 ng/L(2).
生態毒性値EC50Species: Tetrahymena pyriformis (Ciliate, GL-C strain)Conditions: freshwater, staticConcentration: 134510 ug/L for 48 hr (95% confidence limit: 95820-164650 ug/L)Effect: decreased population growth
環境中動態TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 62(SRC), determined from a water solubility of 2,270 mg/L(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 4-methylbenzaldehyde is expected to have high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 4-methylbenzaldehyde from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.7X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 0.25 mm Hg(4), and its water solubility(2). 4-Methylbenzaldehyde is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(4). Based on limited information, 4-methylbenzaldehyde is expected to biodegrade in soil(SRC). A Pseudomonas strain was able to utilize 4-methylbenzaldehyde as the sole carbon source(5)a yeast strain grown with both this compound and either sucrose or pyruvate biodegraded 4-methylbenzaldehyde to the respective aromatic carbinol or alcohol(6).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 62(SRC), determined from a water solubility of 2,270 mg/L(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 4-methylbenzaldehyde is not 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 1.7X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 0.25 mm Hg(4), and its water solubility(2). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 2.4 and 21 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 8(SRC), from its water solubility(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Based on limited data, biodegradation of 4-methylbenzaldehyde will take place in water(SRC). A Pseudomonas strain was able to utilize 4-methylbenzaldehyde as the sole carbon source(6)a yeast strain grown with both this compound and either sucrose or pyruvate biodegraded 4-methylbenzaldehyde to the respective aromatic carbinol or alcohol(7).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 4-methylbenzaldehyde, which has a vapor pressure of 0.25 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 4-methylbenzaldehyde 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 21 hrs(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.8X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). The reactivity of 4-methylbenzaldehyde (1 ppm) with NOx (0.5 ppm) in light was measured in a smog chamber as 1.78 ppb/min(4). 4-Methylbenzaldehyde contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(5) and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

Plant Concentrations4-Methylbenzaldehyde was detected in raw earth almonds (Cyperus esculentus L.)(1).
Effluent ConcentrationsOperation of a four-stroke outboard motor resulted in the exhaust emission of 2.8 mg/10 min of 4-methylbenzaldehyde into the water(1). 4-Methylbenzaldehyde was emitted from a fireplace burning jack pine, cedar, red oak, and green ash wood at concns of 0.114-0.475 g/kg(2). 4-Methylbenzaldehyde was emitted from non-catalyst and catalyst automobiles at 7.7 and 1.7 ug/km, respectively(3). Heavy-duty diesel trucks emitted 2.3 ug 4-methylbenzaldehyde/km(3). 4-Methylbenzaldehyde was identified in rush hour traffic air samples taken at the Oakland-San Francisco Bay Bridge toll plaza 4/23/2001, 5-7 pm, 4/24/2001, 6-10 am, and 3-7 pm at concns of 0.018-0.023 ug/cu m(4). 4-Methylbenzaldehyde was found in highway tunnels in Tuscaroralight duty trucks emitted 0.023 mg/km traveled or 0.305 mg/L fuel used, heavy duty trucks emitted 0.335 mg/km traveled or 0.962 mg/L fuel used(5). 4-Methylbenzaldehyde emissions from an automobile running on Swedish environmental classified diesel fuel were 0.6 mg/km and the same automobile running on European program emissions fuel were also 0.6 mg/km(6).3-Methylbenzaldehyde/4-methylbenzaldehyde was measured in the emissions of burnt wood at 12 and 27 mg/kg of pine and eucalyptus, but was not detected in the emissions of burnt oak(1).
Soil Adsorption/MobilityThe Koc of 4-methylbenzaldehyde is estimated as 62(SRC), using a water solubility of 2,270 mg/L(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 4-methylbenzaldehyde is expected to have high mobility in soil.

p-Tolualdehyde is made by the Vilsmeier reaction employing toluene and dimethylformamide or the Guttermann–Koch reaction employing toluene and carbon monoxide.

一般的な説明

p-Tolualdehyde (4-Methylbenzaldehyde) is an aromatic aldehyde. It has been generated as major oxygenated product during the UV light irradiated oxygenation of p-xylene, via photoinduced electron transfer mechanism. It undergoes condensation reaction with diiron μ-ethylidyne complex to afford μ-vinylcarbyne complex (92% yield).
