Endpoint:
oxidising liquids
Type of information:
other: Report Assessment
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2012-02-22 - 2012-03-15
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Report Assessment
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Test A17 / A21 need not be carried out when examination of the structural formula establishes beyond reasonable doubt that the substance has no oxidising properties. The supplement to the A17 / A21 method describes situations in which experimental assessment of oxidising properties is not necessary.
GLP compliance:
no

Remarks on result:
other: In every respect of the oxidising liquids exemption procedure, the test item does not show any evidence of possessing oxidising properties
Remarks:
Assessment report available, no experiment performed.

Results:

Examining the structural formula, the following observations can be made:

The molecule does not contain any functional groups listed.

Although this list is not exhaustive, this is a significant observation as most commonly occurring oxidising functional groups are contained within the list.

According to the two criteria quoted, oxidising properties can exist when:

o the highly electronegative atoms which are present constitute a high proportion of the molecule and are bound to elements in a high oxidation state

 In the case of the test item the proportion of electronegative atoms in the molecule is low (2 oxygen atoms out of an overall atom count of 32). Both oxygen atoms are bound to carbon atoms.

o the highly electronegative atoms are bonded to each other or to other electronegative elements such as iodine, nitrogen, sulphur or phosphorus.

 In the case of the test item, the highly electronegative atoms are not bound to one another, nor to any other electronegative elements.

o Assessment against these two criteria indicates strongly that the molecule will not have oxidising properties.

In every respect of the oxidising liquids exemption procedure, the test tem does not show any evidence of possessing oxidising properties.

On the basis of this exercise, the material should be considered as not oxidising and should not be subjected to experimental testing. The material meets all criteria for exemption from testing and has a structure not at all conducive with that required to exhibit oxidising tendencies.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item does not show any evidence of possessing oxidising properties.
Executive summary:

In every respect of the oxidising liquids exemption procedure, the test item does not show any evidence of possessing oxidising properties.

On the basis of this exercise, the material should be considered as not oxidising and should not be subjected to experimental testing. The material meets all criteria for exemption from testing and has a structure not at all conducive with that required to exhibit oxidising tendencies.
