yes

Specific details on test material used for the study:

- Analytical purity: 94.55 %
- Expiration date: 31 December 2017
- Storage condition: at room temperature

Remarks on result:

other: Result based on theorecital assessment

The test substance does not have any functional groups, that would be oxidising.

The oxygen and the oxygen balance was: -272.12 (C20) and -279.85 (C24).

A positive oxygen balance indicates the presence of oxidising groups. It is therefore concluded that the test substance does not exhibit oxidising properties.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The substance is concluded not to have oxidising properties.

Description of key information

Based on the theoretical assessment following guideline 440/2008 EC A17 (Foster, 2016), the test substance is not considered oxidizing.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:

non oxidising

Justification for classification or non-classification

The test substance does not contain any functional groups that would be oxidising. Furthermore, the oxygen balance is < 0 which confirms that there are no oxidising groups present in the molecule.
