  • Toxicity Summary: IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Acetoxime is a solid. It is used in organic synthesis (intermediate), as a solvent for cellulose ethers, and as a primer for diesel fuels. HUMAN STUDIES: Acetoxime has been tested in vitro as an experimental medication for herpes infection. ANIMAL STUDIES: Acetoxime was tested for carcinogenicity by chronic administration in the drinking water to male and female rats. The dose of 1.0 g/liter was administered 5 days/week for 18 months (total dose, 6.2 -7.0 g/rat). Acetoxime induced benign hepatocellular adenomas in 80% of the males but did not produce tumors in the females. The 90 day-NOAEL of the test substance in rats by the oral route was 15 mg/kg bw/day in both sexes. No effects were observed in the reproductive organs or tissues up to the highest dose tested (50 mg/kg bw/day). Acetoxime was negative in the Ames test with TA97, TA98, TA100 and TA1535 with and without metabolic activation. Acetoxime was genotoxic in Drosophila melanogaster. When tested in vivo acetoxime was found to induce a specific pattern of base damage in rat liver DNA and RNA, including the induction of increased levels of 8-hydroxyguanine.

  • Environmental Bioconcentration: An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for acetoxime(SRC), using a log Kow of 0.12(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). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1.3(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.12(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that acetoxime is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). The pKa of acetoxime is 12.42(4), indicating that this compound will exist as its neutral species in the environment (pH 5-9). Volatilization of acetoxime from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 7.8X10-6 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(3). Acetoxime is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 1.82 mm Hg at 25 °C(5). A 0% of theoretical BOD using domestic sewage in the Closed Bottle test(6) suggests that biodegradation is not an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1.3(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.12(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that acetoxime is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(4) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 7.8X10-6 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(3). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(5), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 4 days and 33 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 3.2(SRC), from its log Kow(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. A 0% of theoretical BOD using domestic sewage in the Closed Bottle test(7) suggests that biodegradation is not an important environmental fate process in water(SRC). 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), acetoxime, which has a vapor pressure of 1.82 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase acetoxime 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 48 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 3.3X10-13 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). Acetoxime does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).
