Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH

1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
This read-across is based on the hypothesis that source and target substances have similar toxicological properties because
- they are manufactured from similar precursors under similar conditions
- they share structural similarities with common functional groups: the substances start with an acetylene group as core structure; geminal hydroxyl groups on the alpha carbon atoms; distal to the geminal hydroxyl groups is an isobutyl group (methyl isopropyl); the target substance 2,4,7,9-Tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol, ethoxylated (1.3) is further functionalised with ethylene oxide and has an ethoxylation degree of 1.3; the source substance 2,4,7,9-Tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol, ethoxylated (3.8) has an ethoxylation degree of 3.8
- they have similar physicochemical properties and thus, show a similar toxicokinetic behaviour
- they are expected to undergo similar metabolism: oxidation of the terminal methyl groups to result in alcohol, aldehyde and finally the corresponding acid

Therefore, read-across from the existing toxicity, ecotoxicity, environmental fate and physicochemical studies on the source substances is considered as an appropriate adaptation to the standard information requirements of REACH regulation.

20 °C

Additional information

The vapour pressure of the source substance 2,4,7,9-tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol was determined to be 0.62 Pa at 20°C.

The vapour pressure of 2,4,7,9-Tetramethyl-5-decyne-4,7-diol, ethoxylated (1.3) was estimated to be </=0.00247 Pa at 25°C (EpiSuite v4.11, US EPA, 2012; MPBPWIN v1.43).

The value of 0.62 Pa at 20°C will be used as worst case for chemical safety assessment.
