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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
The substance is predicted to possess a dissociation constant in the region of 12.13, which represents dissociation of the neutral molecules to form ions. The substance is therefore expected to exist virtually exclusively in neutral, unionised form throughout the environmentally relevant range of pH 5 to pH 9.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
In accordance with section 1 of REACH Annex XI, the dissociation constant study (required in section 7.16) does not need to be conducted as inspection of the chemical structure shows no functional groups which are associated with dissociation behaviour at relevant environmental conditions. The Chemical Abstract Service (CAS) Registry file contains an estimated pKa value for the substance of 12.13 ± 0.70 at 25ºC, which was calculated using the Advanced Chemistry Development (ACD) model. This pKa is interpreted to represent the dissociation of one of the hydroxyl groups to form an alkoxide anion and a proton, and supports the expectation that the substance will exist virtually exclusively in neutral, unionised form throughout the environmentally relevant range of pH 5 to pH 9.
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.
