Compound Groups

Compound groups are groups of chemicals that share structural or chemical features. In most cases, hazard lists will assign hazards to individual substances. Compound groups are useful because in some cases, lists will instead identify a group of structurally similar compounds (such as lead compounds) as all having the same hazard. The Pharos staff is in the process of establishing and populating compound groups, and associating warnings from the hazard lists with them. The table below indicates how each compound group is populated, and what is the status of its population.

Terephthalates whose toxicology studies we have reviewed to date don't share the hazards that are common to studied orthophthalates. This is thought to be due to the fact that terephthalates are unlikely to break down to a toxic monoester. Orthophthalates are capable of breaking down to a toxic monoester.
