Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Preliminary study:
Due to the low water solubilty of the test substance DMF was added to increase solubility (as specified in Directive 84/449/EEC)
A stock solution of 115 mg test substance in 100 mL DMF was prepared. 1 mL stock solution was added to a volumetric flask and filled up to 100 mL with the buffer solutions respectively.
In the preliminary test volumetric flasks were heated at 50°C for 2.4 h and 5 d. After heating the test solutions were cooled with ice and the concentrations were measured immediately.

Description of key information

Hydrolysis

In the preliminary test degradation was below 10 % after 5 days (= t0.5> 1 year). Therefore, the test substance is regarded as hydrolytically stable at pH 4, 7 and 9 and no additional testing is required.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
