Executive summary:

The investigation of dissociation constant of this substance is not required because they do not have an ionisable group element.

Description of key information

An experimental dissociation study on 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol (CAS#: 140-66-9; SMILES: CC(C)(C)CC(C)(C)c1ccc(O)cc1) is not needed. The SPARC v4.6 calculation for 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol confirms that the substance does not significantly dissociate in the environmentally relevant pH range of 5-9. The predicted pKa is 10.25.


The SPARC predicted value is supported by the published measured (10.39 – Błędzka et al., 2009) and calculated (10.21 - Yamamoto and Liljestrand, 2004; 10.24 – Yamamoto et al., 2003; 10.33 - UNEP Publications, 1995) pKa values for 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol.
