Description of key information
Hydrolysis is not expected under environmentally relevant conditions (pH 5 - 9).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Primary and secondary ethers are relatively inert to most reagents, including strong bases, reducing agents, and weak acids (Streitwieser A. et al, Introduction to Organic Chemistry, 4th Ed., Macmillan, 1992, p233). They do react with hot concentrated strong acids such as HBr and HI; however, these conditions are not environmentally relevant. Hydrolysis is not expected under relevant environmental conditions.
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.
