Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.14 (Explosive properties)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
1)The weight of the falling hammer is 5 kg and dropped from 0.8 m, however, the energy applied is the same as guideline, 40 J or 40 Nm. 2) In contrast to the EC guideline aluminium foil is used to pack the substance. 3) Ten tests are performed.
GLP compliance:
not specified

Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
[(2R,3R,4R,5S,6S)-3,4,5-tris(acetyloxy)-6-(3-{[5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophen-2-yl]methyl}-4-methylphenyl)oxan-2-yl]methyl acetate
EC Number:
617-901-5
Cas Number:
866607-35-4
Molecular formula:
C32H33FO9S
IUPAC Name:
[(2R,3R,4R,5S,6S)-3,4,5-tris(acetyloxy)-6-(3-{[5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophen-2-yl]methyl}-4-methylphenyl)oxan-2-yl]methyl acetate
Test material form:
solid: particulate/powder
Details on test material:
- Physical state: solid
- Appearance: white powder

Results and discussion

Small-scale preliminary tests
Parameter:
other: More sensitive to shock than m-dinitrobenzene
Remarks on result:
negative (not further specified)
Remarks:
If all tests according to Lütolf method are negative, powder can be considered not shock sensitive as reference substance meta-dinitrobenzene is not shock sensitive in similar conditions (although not tested simultaneously in this study)

Any other information on results incl. tables

10 times negative; Not shock sensitive (sensitivity > 39.2 Nm)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test substance is not shock sensitive.
