Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Additional information

The partition coefficient of the test material was estimated using the calculation software KOWWIN v. 1.68 (EPISuite v 4.1). The calculation was performed with a validated model and is considered to be a good representation of the physical-chemical properties of the substance. The calculation was therefore assigned a reliability score of 2 in accordance with the criteria for assessing data quality, as outlined in Klimisch (1997).

A supporting study was provided in the form of a partition coefficient study on the analogue substance, 3-methyl-5-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)pent-4-en-2-ol (Ebanol). The partition coefficient was determined by the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, Method No. 117 and performed according to GLP and was therefore assigned a reliability score of 2. The partition coefficient of Ebanol (Log Kow) was determined to be 4.2. The results were included to demonstrate comparability in the physical-chemical properties between the two substances since data on Ebanol has been used in this dossier to address certain endpoints for 3-methyl-5-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)pent-4-en-2-one (Ebanone) on the basis of read-across (for further details see read-across justification document, attached in section 13).
