Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
(2E)-1-[(6-chloropyridin-3-yl)methyl]-N-nitroimidazolidin-2-imine is photolytically degraded in air with a half-life of 0.85 h.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Half-life in air:
- 0.85 h
- Degradation rate constant with OH radicals:
- 151 680 000 000 000 cm³ molecule-1 s-1
Additional information
The endpoint “phototransformation in air” is not a data requirement for the registered substance. However, for the sake of completeness this endpoint is covered by a short summary of the available data.
One study on the photolytic degradation of (2E)-1-[(6-chloropyridin-3-yl)methyl]-N-nitroimidazolidin-2-imine in air, according to the guideline “Federal Biological Institute for Agriculture and Forestry (BBA), Germany: Guidelines for the Testing of Plant Protection Products in Registration Procedure, Part IV, 6-1 (July 1990)”, is available.
Using AOPWIN Program version 1.87 (8/98) a half-life of 0.85 h and an OH reaction rate of 151.68 x 10E+12 [cm³/molecules sec] were calculated for the test substance.
On account of the relative short chemical lifetime of the test substance in the air it is to be expected that the active ingredient cannot be transported in gaseous phase over large distances and cannot accumulate in air.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
