HEPTANOL 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.

Fire Extinguishing Agents: Foam, carbon dioxide, or dry chemical (USCG, 1999)

Use alcohol-resistant foam. Use dry powder. Use carbon dioxide.

Fresh air, rest.

Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.

First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.

Rinse mouth. Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention .

AEROBIC: 1-Heptanol degrades fast in aerobic biodegradation screening tests(1-5). In a 5-day BOD test using acclimated mixed cultures, 56.3% of theoretical BOD was consumed(1). Other tests show 30% of theoretical BOD was expended in 5 days(2) and 28.9% of theoretical BOD was expended in 1 day using 500 ppm of 1-heptanol and an activated sludge inoculum(3). An aerobic biodegradation rate constant of 0.124 1/hr(4), which corresponds to a half-life of 0.23 days(SRC), was determined in an aerobic screening test at pH 7 and 25 °C using an activated sludge inocula. In a similar screening test, the rate constant was measured to be 2.53X10-2 1/hr(5), which corresponds to a biodegradation half-life of 1.14 days(SRC).

Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Cover the spilled material with absorbent. Collect leaking liquid in sealable containers.

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 quality; potential migration in soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic, and plant life; and conformance with environmental and public health regulations.

Personal protection: filter respirator for organic gases and vapours adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Cover the spilled material with inert absorbent. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible.

Of the expired air from an urban population of 54 normal, healthy, nonsmoking subjects (387 samples), 39.5% were positive for 1-heptanol, containing a geometric mean concn of 3.9 ng/L(1). The one-sigma limits were 1.86 and 8.2 ng/L. Besides being carefully selected, subjects refrained from medication for 14 days prior to sampling and for 7 days prior to sampling avoided prolonged exposure to perfume, paint, glue, aerosols, dust, tobacco smoke, or areas polluted with industrial waste.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 74(SRC), determined from a water solubility of 1670 mg/L(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 1-heptanol is expected to have high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 1-heptanol from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 1.88X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(4). 1-Heptanol is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 0.216 mm Hg(5). 1-Heptanol has been demonstrated to be readily biodegradable in aerobic screening tests(6-10) and therefore should biodegrade in soil(SRC).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 74(SRC), determined from a water solubility of 1670 mg/L(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 1-heptanol 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 1.88X10-5 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 2.2 days and 20 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 21(SRC), from its log Kow of 2.62(6) and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). 1-Heptanol has been demonstrated to be readily biodegradable in aerobic screening tests(8-12) and therefore should biodegrade in water(SRC).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 1-heptanol, which has a vapor pressure of 0.216 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 1-heptanol 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 28 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.36X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3).

1-Heptanol is a food volatile found in meat and seafood such as raw beef(1), frankfurters(2) fried bacon(3), duck(4), raw and roasted earth almonds (Cyperus esculentus L.)(5), clams(6), and short-necked clams(6). It has been identified as a volatile of nectarines(7), chickpeas(8), Kogyoku apples(9), peanut oil(10), and champagne(11). 1-Heptanol has also been identified as an aroma component of Beaufort (Gruyere) cheese(12). Fermented soybean (Glycine max) curds were found to contain 275.7 ug/kg of 1-heptanol(13).

... The epicardial surface of 12 isolated-perfused canine left atria was optically mapped before and after 1-50 microM heptanol infusion. At baseline, no sustained (>30 s) AF could be induced in any of the 12 tissues. However, after 2 microM heptanol infusion, sustained AF was induced in 9 of 12 tissues (P < 0.001). Heptanol >5 microM caused loss of 1:1 capture during rapid pacing, causing no AF to be induced. ... Heptanol at 2 microM had no effect on the cellular action potential duration restitution or on the maximal velocity rate over time of the upstroke. The effects of heptanol were reversible.

... The experiments investigated the effects of heptanol on isolated Langendorff-perfused rabbit hearts. Heptanol inhibited both pressure generation and electrical conduction. These effects were completely reversible ... Low concentrations of heptanol (less than 0.3 mM) caused small but significant increases in the delay between the stimulus (delivered to the basal septum) artifact and local activation of the left ventricle, as measured from bipolar electrogram (BEG) recordings. There was a steep increase in the latency between stimulus and left-ventricular activation at concentrations of heptanol above 0.3 mM ... Heptanol decreased repolarization duration, measured from the activation recovery interval (ARI) of BEGs, and monophasic action potential duration at 70% repolarization (MAPD70). Heptanol also reduced left-ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), and the maximum rates of contraction and relaxation of the left ventricle; these effects were concentration dependent and reversible. Changes in ARIs, LVDP and the maximum rates of change of pressure lacked the steep response to 0.3 to 1.0 mM heptanol shown by the latency ... During premature stimulation protocols arrhythmias could be induced in hearts perfused with 0.1 to 0.3 mM heptanol but not at higher concentrations.

... Incubation of n-heptane with microsomal extracts resulted in formation of four isomeric n-heptanols. The relationship of the hydroxylating process to protein concentration and to the formation of the three main alcoholic products, namely 1-heptanol (111706), 2-heptanol (543497), and 3-heptanol (589822), were linear up to 1mg/4 minutes. Treatment of rats with phenobarbitol (50066) for 2 days enhanced hydroxylation and formation of 2-heptanol, 3-heptanol and 4-heptanol about 4 fold, but 1-heptanol was increased only 60 percent. In contrast, 3,4-benzpyrene depressed the formation of 1-heptanol to about 70 percent and increased the formation of 3-heptanol and 4-heptanol slightly. Carbon-monoxide inhibited formation of 1-heptanol. Similar results were obtained with metyrapone.

... Heptanol caused a significant growth inhibition of Xenopus tadpoles and the median lethal dose and mean teratogenic effect at 120 hours were 1.49 and 0.37 millimolar, respectively. The teratogenic index of 4.03 suggested that heptanol is a strong teratogen.

1-Heptanol is primarily oxidized in the rabbit to heptanoic acid, which either undergoes further oxidation to CO2 or forms an ester glucuronide. There is also a lesser metabolic pathway using direct conjugation with glucuronic acid to form an ether glucuronide conjugate.
