Description of key information
2,6 -Xylidine is not readily biodegradable (according to OECD criteria).
Additional information
2,6 -Xylidine is not readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria but it is biodegradable after adaption of the inoculum and after a prolonged contact time. In soil, the parent compound is degraded rapidly; however, the transformation products were stable over more than 90 days at 19±2 °C.
Rate constants:
Degradation rate in water: 4.7*10-3 [d-1]1
Degradation rate in soil : 2.31*10-3 [d-1]2
Degradation rate in sediment: 2.31*10-4 [d-1]3
Degradation rate in air: 7.0 [d-1]4
