Additional information

The first dissociation constant reported by both Chekanova (2002) and Weber (1961), pKa=10.9 and 10.86 respectively, are in very good agreement - especially considering the use of different experimental techniques. Weber reported the temperature dependance of the pKa, with ΔpKa=0.11 for a 15°C change. As a result the uncertainty derived from the unreported experimental temperature in Chekanova's value (presumably "room temperature") is negligible. Other reported literature values reference back to these two original sources.

The first dissociation constant at 20°C is taken to be pKa=10.9, and this endpoint is deemed to be met according to Annex XI, Section 1.2, on the basis of the weight-of-evidence of two independent measurements using different experimental techniques reported in the scientific literature. The available data is considered relevant and adequate for risk assessment purposes, and conclusive.
