Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.

1,3-DIMETHYL-BICYCLOHEPTANE-2-CARBONITRILE is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulation. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

1,3-Dimethyl-bicycloheptane-2-carbonitrile carries H302 (acute oral toxicity) and H317 (skin sensitizer) classifications, the latter requiring allergen declaration in EU ingredient lists above threshold. The nitrile functional group contributes to acute toxicity concerns. It is not listed in EU Annex III (restricted substances), but the H317 classification means concentration limits apply per fragrance industry standards. The bicyclic structure suggests terpene-derived chemistry.

Known concerns

  • Skin sensitizer (H317)
  • Acute oral toxicity (H302)
  • Fragrance allergen declaration required
