Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
phototransformation in air
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Accepted QSAR
Principles of method if other than guideline:
QSAR AOPWin v1.92
Estimation method (if used):
PHOTOCHEMICAL REACTION WITH OH RADICALS
- Concentration of OH radicals: 0.5E6 OH/cm3
- OH rate constant: 63.3681 E-12 cm3/molecule-sec
- Temperature for which rate constant was calculated: 25 deg C
- 24-hr day
- Computer programme: AopWin v1.92
DT50:
6.076 h
Conclusions:
Using the QSAR AOPWin v1.92 tool, the half-life (DT50) of ethylenediamine in air is 6.076 h.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the phototransformation of ethylenediamine in air. The rate constant for elimination via hydroxyl radical reaction in atmosphere can be estimated to 63.3681 E-12 cm3/ (molecule*sec) corresponding to a half life of 6 h, using the AOPWin (EPA, 2008).
