Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Non oxidising
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Oxidising properties:
- no
Additional information
According to The REACH Regulation (EC N. 1907/2006), Annex VII, Column 2, the study does not need to be conducted if the substance is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials, for example on the basis of the chemical structure (e.g. organic substances not containing oxygen or halogen atoms and these elements are not chemically bonded to nitrogen or oxygen, or inorganic substances not containing oxygen or halogen atoms).
Propiophenone is deemed to be not potentially oxidizing agent, based on the chemical structure.
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to the CLP Regulation (EC) n. 1272/2008, 2.14.4.1 section, for organic substances or mixtures the classification procedure for the oxidising solid class shall not apply if:
(a) the substance or mixture does not contain oxygen, fluorine or chlorine; or
(b) the substance or mixture contains oxygen, fluorine or chlorine and these elements are chemically bonded only to carbon or hydrogen.
Based on the information and review of the substance, it is deemed not to be potentially oxidising, based on the chemical structure values.
Therefore, the substance does not meet the criteria to be classified as oxidising, according to the CLP Regulation (EC N.1272/2008).
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.
