- Environmental Fate: ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 4-acetylanisole, which has a vapor pressure of 6.44X10-3 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 4-acetylanisole 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 1 day(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 2.05X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). 4-Acetylanisole contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and, therefore, may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC). An environmental half-life of 12 days was measure...

- Soil Adsorption/Mobility: A log Koc of 2.43 for 4-acetylanisole was measured in a black agricultural soil (silty loam, pH 5.86, 27.2% clay content, 4.78% soil organic matter, 4.01% water content) obtained from Northeastern China(1). This corresponds to a Koc of 270(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this Koc value suggests that 4-acetylanisole is expected to have moderate mobility in soil.
- Natural Pollution Sources: 4-Acetylanisole occurs naturally in European cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccus), guava fruit (Psidium guajava), Vitis labrusca, tomato, anise (Pimpinella anisum), mentha oils, cloudberry (Rubus chamaemorus), Illicium verum and black chokeberry (Aronia melanocarpa ell.).

- Environmental Bioconcentration: An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for 4-acetylanisole (SRC), using a log Kow of 1.74(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).
- Volatilization from Water/Soil: The Henry's Law constant for 4-acetylanisole is estimated as 8.9X10-6 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) using a fragment constant estimation method(1). This Henry's Law constant indicates that 4-acetylanisole is expected to volatilize from water surfaces(2). Based on this Henry's Law constant, the volatilization half-life from a model river (1 m deep, flowing 1 m/sec, wind velocity of 3 m/sec)(2) is estimated as 3 days(SRC). The volatilization half-life from a model lake (1 m deep, flowing 0.05 m/sec, wind velocity of 0.5 m/sec)(2) is estimated as 42 days(SRC). 4-Acetylanisole's Henry's Law constant indicates that volatilization from moist soil surfaces may occur(SRC). 4-Acetylanisole is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 6.44X10-3 mm Hg at 25 °C(3).

- Environmental Abiotic Degradation: The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of 4-acetylanisole with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals has been estimated as 2.05X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 1 day at an atmospheric concentration of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm(2). 4-Acetylanisole is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions(3). 4-Acetylanisole contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(3) and, therefore, may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC). An environmental half-life of 12 days was measured in sunlit surface waters at 40 °C(4).
- Probable Routes of Human Exposure: Occupational exposure to 4-acetylanisole may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where 4-acetlanisole is produced or used. Limited monitoring and use data indicate that the general population may be exposed to 4-acetylanisole via smoking cigarettes, inhalation of wood smoke, ingestion of food, and dermal contact with and inhalation of consumer products containing 4-acetylanisole.

- Environmental Fate/Exposure Summary: 4-Acetylanisole's production and use in perfumery and as a synthetic flavoring may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. 4-Acetylanisole occurs naturally in European cranberry, guava fruit, tomato, anise, mentha oils, grilled and roast beef, sherry, salted and picked plums, and black chokeberry. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 6.44X10-3 mm Hg at 25 °C indicates 4-acetylanisole will exist solely as a vapor in the atmosphere. Vapor-phase 4-acetylanisole will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 1 day. 4-Acetylanisole contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and, therefore, may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlig...
