TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 240(SRC), determined from a measured water solubility of 196 mg/L(2) and a regression derived equation(3), indicates that 1-bromo-3-methylbutane is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 1-bromo-3-methylbutane from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 3.46X10-2 atm-cu m/mole(4). The potential for volatilization of 1-bromo-3-methylbutane from dry soil surfaces exists(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure of 34.6 mm Hg(4). Biodegradation data were not available(SRC, 2005).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 240(SRC), determined from a measured water solubility of 196 mg/L(2) and a regression derived equation(3), indicates that 1-bromo-3-methylbutane is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon a Henry's Law constant of 3.46X10-2 atm-cu m/mole(4). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 1 hour and 5 days, respectively (SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 32(SRC), from its water solubility(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate(SRC). 1-Bromo-3-methylbutane is an alkyl halide which is susceptible to hydrolysis(6). No measured hydrolysis rates were located for this compound. However, the hydrolysis half-life of an analogous compound, 1-bromopropane, is about 26 days at pH 7(7), which suggests 1-bromo-3-methylbutane may undergo hydrolysis(SRC). Biodegradation data were not available(SRC, 2005).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 1-bromo-3-methylbutane , which has a vapor pressure of 34.6 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 1-bromo-3-methylbutane 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 5 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 3.6X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3).

The Koc of 1-bromo-3-methylbutane is estimated as 240(SRC), using a measured water solubility of 196 mg/L(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 1-bromo-3-methylbutane is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC).

No biodegradation data were located for 1-bromo-3-methylbutane(SRC, 2005). 2-Methylbutane was completely biodegraded in 12 days using an activated sludge, following an initial lag period of 5 days(1), suggesting the potential for biodegradation of 1-bromo-3-methylbutane exists(SRC).

An estimated BCF of 32 was calculated for 1-bromo-3-methylbutane (SRC), using a measured water solubility of 196 mg/L(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(SRC).

The Henry's Law constant for 1-bromo-3-methylbutane has been measured as 3.46X10-2 atm-cu m/mole(1). This Henry's Law constant indicates that 1-bromo-3-methylbutane is expected to volatilize rapidly 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 1 hour(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 5 days(SRC). 1-Bromo-3-methylbutane's Henry's Law constant indicates that volatilization from moist soil surfaces may occur(SRC). The potential for volatilization of 1-bromo-3-methylbutane from dry soil surfaces exists(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure of 34.6 mm Hg at 25 °C(1).

The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of 1-bromo-3-methylbutane with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals has been estimated as 3.6X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 5 days at an atmospheric concentration of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm(1). 1-Bromo-3-methylbutane is not expected to undergo direct photolysis in the environment since it does not contain functional groups that absorb light in the environmental UV spectrum(SRC). Alkyl halides are susceptible to hydrolysis in the environment(2,3); however, no measured hydrolysis rates were located for this compound. The hydrolysis half-life of an analogous compound, 1-bromopropane, is about 26 days at pH 7(4), which suggests 1-bromo-3-methylbutane may also hydrolyze(SRC).

1-Bromo-3-methylbutane's production and use as an organic synthesis reagent may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 34.6 mm Hg at 25 °C indicates 1-bromo-3-methylbutane will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 1-bromo-3-methylbutane will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 5 days. If released to soil, 1-bromo-3-methylbutane is expected to have moderate mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 240. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process based upon a Henry's Law constant of 3.46X10-2 atm-cu m/mole. The potential for volatilization of 1-bromo-3-methylbutane from dry soil surfaces exists based upon its vapor pressure. No biodegradation data were located for 1-bromo-3-methylbutane. If released into water, 1-bromo-3-methylbutane is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the estimated Koc.
