Safety
2,4-Dichloro-3-ethyl-6-nitrophenol is a benzene series intermediate classified by the PBT profiler as having strong toxic potential and as a persistent material[1-2]. The chronic value (Chv) of 2,4-dichloro-3-ethyl-6-nitrophenol obtained from the PBT Profiler serves as the basis for deriving the predicted no-effect concentration (PNEC), calculated as one-tenth of the Chv[2].
