Safety Profile
OCTAHYDRO-8,8-DIMETHYLNAPHTHALENE-2-CARBONITRILE (CAS 72928-51-9) is included in inventories of cosmetic ingredients; however, it has not undergone specific safety assessments by regulatory bodies such as CIR, SCCS, or FDA. Information regarding skin sensitization often refers to a different, albeit structurally similar, compound (Octahydro-8,8-dimethylnaphthalene-2-carbaldehyde, CAS 68738-94-3), which should not be equated with this carbonitrile.
