Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
5-amino-2-chlorotoluene-4-sulphonic acid
EC Number:
201-839-7
EC Name:
5-amino-2-chlorotoluene-4-sulphonic acid
Cas Number:
88-53-9
Molecular formula:
C7H8ClNO3S
IUPAC Name:
2-amino-5-chloro-4-methylbenzene-1-sulfonic acid

Results and discussion

Melting / freezing point
Melting / freezing pt.:
> 324 - <= 335 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 1 atm
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
> 325 °C
Remarks on result:
other: The product begins to melt at 324°C. An exothermic decomposition starts at 325°C. Because of the overlap of endothermic and exothermic processes, the energy measured for the exothermic process (206 J/g) is less than the true decomposition energy.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The tested substance starts to melt at 324°C.
Executive summary:

Melting of the tested substance starts at 324°C using a Differential Scanning Calorimeter.
