Description of key information

Additional information

Methyl p-hydroxycinnamate is a beige or off-white powder at 101325 Pa and 20 °C.

No experimental data is available for the substance except for melting point and dissociation constant.

The experimental melting point for the substance is 410.7 K equivalent to 137.5 °C and the experimental pka at T=25 °C is 8.51.

Estimated data were calculated by EPI Suite v.4.1.:

- predicted boiling point is 289.89 °C;

- predicted vapour pressure is 0.000421 mmHg at T= 25°C;

- predicted partition coefficient n-octanol/water is 1.88 at T= 25°C;

- predicted water solubility is 5332 mg/l at 25°C

The density of Methyl p-hydroxycinnamate was calculated by ACD/Labs (1.2 ± 0.1 g/cm3).

Flash point is waived based on the substance is solid.

Surface tension is not expected for Methyl p-hydroxycinnamate and it is not explosive based on the lack of potential explosive groups in its structure.

Methyl p-hydroxycinnamate is not oxidising: the substance doesn't contain halogen atoms and the oxygens of the molecule are chemically bounded only to carbon and hydrogen.
