  • Toxicity Summary: IDENTIFICATION AND USE: 2,2-Dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide (DBNPA) is white to "off white" crystalline solid. It is used as a pesticide(Trade Names: DBNPA, Slimicide 508, XD-7287L Antimicrobial, XD-1603.) Main uses include the following: algicide, bactericide and fungicide; preservative used mainly in pulp, paper and paperboard mill water systems and in industrial water cooling systems. It is also used as a preservative in animal glues, metalworking cutting fluids, oil recovery drilling muds, latex paints, resin/latex/polymer emulsions, latex/oil/varnish paints, and paper and paper products. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Several human incident reports concerning DBNPA are on file with the EPA. These include eye, throat, & respiratory irritation, runny nose, & headache. Generally the effects arose with spills or misuse. No treatment related effects on chromosome aberrations in proliferating cultured human lymphocyte were reported with or without metabolic activation. ANIMAL STUDIES: A primary eye irritation study in rabbits resulted in severe corneal damage. Dermal irritation was noted in rats of both sexes.

  • Environmental Bioconcentration: An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide(SRC), using a log Kow of 0.80(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Using carp (Cyprinus carpio) which were exposed over an 8-week period, 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide was reported to have low bioconcentration (BCF value not available)(4).

  • Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 58(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.80(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide is expected to have high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.9X10-8 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 9.0X10-4 mm Hg(2), and water solubility, 1.5X10+4 mg/L(2). 2,2-Dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(2). Biodegradation in soil may be an important environmental fate process; however, degradation in soil is expected to be due to both abiotic and biotic processes(2,4). 2,2-Dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide is susceptible to aqueous hydrolysis in moist soils and susceptible to photodegradation when exposed to sunlight(2,4). Half-lives ranged from 4 to 25 hours in 7 different soils with pH values of 4.8 to 7.5(4). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 58(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.80(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(4) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.9X10-8 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), determined from its vapor pressure, 9.0X10-4 mm Hg(2) and water solubility, 1.5X10+4 mg/L(2). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from its log Kow(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Degradation in water is due to both abiotic and biotic processes(2,6). Hydrolysis half-lives of 67 days, 63 hours, and 73 minutes were measured for 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide at pH 5, 7, and 9, respectively(2). Dibromoacetic acid is the major degradate at pH 5 while dibromoacetonitrile is the major degradate at pH values of 7 and 9(2). The half-life of 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide is less than 4 hours in anaerobic and aerobic metabolism studies(2). Degradates include oxalic acid Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide, which has a vapor pressure of 9X10-4 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide 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 8 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 2.0X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) determined using a structure estimation method(3). Based on photolysis studies showing degradation in aqueous solution exposed to sunlight (99% loss in 28 days)(4), 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide is expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis in the atmosphere(SRC).
