Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- boiling point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- The study was initiated on 13 April 2017 and completed on the date the final report was signed by the Study Director.
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- reference to same study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 103 (Boiling Point)
- Version / remarks:
- The experimental procedures followed those described in OECD Guideline 102 for the melting temperature determination and OECD Guideline 103 for the boiling temperature determination.
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Type of method:
- differential scanning calorimetry
- Remarks:
- Mettler-Toledo DSC1 differential scanning calorimeter running STARe version 10.00 software.
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Sponsor batch: E01133-065
Purity: 100 %
Arrival date: 6 March 2017
Re-test date: 31 July 2019
Storage conditions: Refrigerated (2 to 8°C) under nitrogen. The test substance was supplied in a translucent HDPE container and has been stored in this container. The test substance was stored in a fridge, in the dark when not in use. - Key result
- Boiling pt.:
- ca. 288 °C
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- > 288 °C
- Remarks on result:
- other: Various endothermic and exothermic artefacts observed from 124°C (test 1) and a major endothermic effect, characteristic of boiling, observed with peak temp 288°C (mean of 288.8 and 287.5°C), followed by signs of decomposition.
- Conclusions:
- Boiling at peak 288°C followed by decomposition
- Executive summary:
In a study, according to OECD 103, the boiling point of neodecanoic acid, iron salt has been characterised. Various endothermic and exothermic artefacts were observed from 124°C (test 1) and a major endothermic effect, characteristic of boiling, was observed with a peak temperature of 288°C (mean of 288.8 and 287.5°C), followed by signs of decomposition.
A red-brown liquid, similar in colour to the original material remained in the crucible after testing.
Boiling at peak 288°C followed by decomposition.
- Endpoint:
- boiling point
- Type of information:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Justification for type of information:
- For details and justification of read-across please refer to the report attached in section 13 of IUCLID.
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- read-across source
- Key result
- Boiling pt.:
- >= 243 - <= 253 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 013 hPa
- Decomposition:
- no
- Conclusions:
- The boiling range for neodecanoic acid has been determined to be between 243 and 253°C at 1013 hPa.
- Executive summary:
In a study, according to ASTM D1078, the boiling point of neodecanoic acid has been characterised. The boiling range for neodecanoic acid has been determined to be between 243 and 253°C at 1013 hPa.
This information is used in a read-across approach in the assessment of the target substance. For details and justification of read-across please refer to the read-across report attached to IUCLID section 13.

Description of key information
In a study, according to OECD 103, the boiling point of neodecanoic acid, iron salt has been characterised. Various endothermic and exothermic artefacts were observed from 124°C (test 1) and a major endothermic effect, characteristic of boiling, was observed with a peak temperature of 288°C (mean of 288.8 and 287.5°C), followed by signs of decomposition. A red-brown liquid, similar in colour to the original material remained in the crucible after testing.
As a supporting approach, read-across has been made to neodecanoic acid (EC No. 248 -093 -9; CAS No. 26896 -20 -8). Since the determined range between 243°C and 253°C is in the same range as that of neodecanoic acid, iron salt, the read-across approach to the structural analogue can be considered as justified.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Boiling point at 101 325 Pa:
- 288 °C
