Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Stability in organic solvents and identity of relevant degradation products
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- stability in organic solvents and identity of relevant degradation products
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- other information
- Study period:
- 20. Nov. 2015 - 03. March 2016
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
- Qualifier:
- no guideline followed
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Test substance stable:
- no
- Remarks:
- This was traced back to side reaction of Magnesium methanolate with the moisture content in the solvent, since the solvents were of non-dried commercial quality.
- Transformation products:
- yes
- No.:
- #1
- Conclusions:
- In all solvent filtrates except in n-Heptane methanol was found and quantified by NMR. This was traced back to side reaction of Magnesium methanolate with the moisture content in
the solvent, since the solvents were of non-dried commercial quality.
No other known or unknown components were found.
Magnesium methanolate is not soluble in the tested solvents (Tetrahydrofurane (THF), n-Heptane, Dichloromethane, Isopropanol, Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), Acetonitrile (ACN)).

Description of key information
The stability of Magnesium methanolate was conducted with solvents of different polarity. The Solvents that were tested for side reactions with Magnesium methanolate were tetrahydrofurane (THF), n-Heptane, Dichloromethane, Isopropanol, Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), Acetonitrile (ACN).
In all solvent filtrates except in n-Heptane methanol was found and quantified by NMR. This was traced back to side reaction of Magnesium methanol with the moisture content in
the solvent, since the solvents were of non-dried commercial quality. No other known or unknown components were found.
Magnesium methanolate is not soluble in the tested solvents.
Additional information
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.
