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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Hydrolysis: Androst-4-ene-3,17-dione can be considered to be hydrolytically stable at pH 4, 7 and 9 at 25 °C.
Biodegradation in water: Androst-4-ene-3,17-dione showed a degradation rate of 79 % (20 mg/L) and 92 % (10 mg/L) within 29 days and therefore has to be classified as "readily biodegradable".
Bioaccumulation: In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex IX, the bioaccumulation in aquatic species study does not need to be conducted as the substance has a low potential for bioaccumulation (the substance has a log octanol water partition coefficient less than 3).
Adsorption/desorption: The QSAR determination of the carbon partition coefficient revealed values of 645.3 L/kg (logKow method) and 3375 L/kg (MCI method).
Henry's Law Constant: The QSAR determination of the Henry's Law Constant revealed a value of 0.00373 Pa*m³/mol at 25°C for the unaffected molecule of the substance as any decomposition (e.g. hydrolysis) of the substance is not taken into account by the program.
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
