Administrative data

Endpoint:
appearance / physical state / colour
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2002
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: The result was obtained from a handbook which has been subject to peer-review and in which the original data sources are traceable.

Data source

Reference
Reference Type:
review article or handbook
Title:
Unnamed
Year:
2002

Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The physical state of the substances is derived from its melting and boiling points at ambient pressure

GLP compliance:
no

Test material

Constituent 1
Reference substance name:
propylene oxide
IUPAC Name:
propylene oxide
Constituent 2
Reference substance name:
Methyloxirane
EC Number:
200-879-2
EC Name:
Methyloxirane
Cas Number:
75-56-9
IUPAC Name:
2-methyloxirane
Details on test material:
Test material was racemate from both R(+) and S(-) propylene oxide. This endpoint is not measured / determined with enantio-selective sensors.
Therefore the S(-) value is identical to the racemate endpoint.
