Description of key information
Diphenyl carbonate is soluble in several organic solvents:
Hot ethanol, benzene, diethyl ether and glacial acetic acid (Merck, 2001)
Acetone, hot ethanol, benzene, carbon tetrachloride and glacial acetic acid (Lewis, 1997)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The endpoint is addressed with two key studies. As the data was from peer reviewed sources, all were awarded a reliability score of 2 in accordance with the criteria for assessing data quality as set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).
The first result is taken from the Merck Index (2001) which identifies diphenyl carbonate as being soluble in hot ethanol, benzene, diethyl ether and glacial acetic acid. No temperatures were reported.
The second result is taken from Hawley’s Condensed Chemical Dictionary (Lewis, 1997) and identifies diphenyl carbonate being soluble in acetone, hot ethanol, benzene, carbon tetrachloride and glacial acetic acid. No temperatures were reported.
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.
