Sodium Chloroacetate (C₂H₂ClNaO₂, CAS 3926‑62‑3) is highly water-soluble (>10,000 mg/L), enabling mobility in aquatic and soil environments mubychem.com+6hpvchemicals.oecd.org+6echa.europa.eu+6echemi.com+4fishersci.co.uk+4hpvchemicals.oecd.org+4.
It is biodegradable, with 30–91% degradation within 28 days in activated sludge tests canada.ca.
Due to biodegradation and mobility, SMCA typically doesn’t persist in water systems .
SMCA is very toxic to aquatic life (acute category 1, H400) cameochemicals.noaa.gov+15inchem.org+15merckmillipore.com+15.
Algae (Scenedesmus): 72-h EC₅₀ ~0.033 mg/L; EC₁₀ ~0.006 mg/L hpvchemicals.oecd.org.
Daphnia magna (water flea): 24-h LC₅₀ ~800 mg/L hpvchemicals.oecd.org.
Fish (rainbow trout): 96-h LC₅₀ ~1,400–2,000 mg/L inchem.org+12canada.ca+12canada.ca+12.
Canadian assessments show:
Acute toxicity to fish/invertebrates in the 1–100 mg/L range.
Chronic NOECs for fish/invertebrates around 0.1–10 mg/L.
PNEC estimated 1–10 µg/L; PEC in Canadian waters ~<1–10 µg/L (smaller than PNEC), suggesting low environmental risk under current use levels echa.europa.eu+14canada.ca+14canada.ca+14.
SMCA’s high solubility leads to high mobility in soils and water systems fishersci.co.uk.
Not considered persistent, with rapid environmental degradation canada.ca+2fishersci.co.uk+2merckmillipore.com+2.
Low bioaccumulation potential: log Pow ~ –3.8; BCF minimal fishersci.co.uk.
Classified under GHS as Aquatic Acute 1 (H400); label and transport regulations require precautions to avoid environmental release echemi.com+4cdhfinechemical.com+4fishersci.co.uk+4.
Transport: UN 2659, Hazard Class 6.1 (Poisonous), Packing Group III mubychem.com+5fishersci.co.uk+5hpvchemicals.oecd.org+5.
Canadian “new substances” program indicates environmental exposure below risk thresholds when SMCA is used industrially (< PEC/PNEC) hpvchemicals.oecd.org+2canada.ca+2canada.ca+2.
Prevent SMCA from entering water systems (avoid washout/drains).
Use spill containment systems with absorbents in production facilities.
Monitor effluent and adapt wastewater treatment processes if SMCA presence is detected.
