Endpoint:
vapour pressure
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
results derived from a valid (Q)SAR model and falling into its applicability domain, with adequate and reliable documentation / justification
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The result was obtained using an appropriate QSAR method (see attached QMRF and QPRF for details).

The model is an adaptation of the existing SRC model MPBPVPWIN v 1.43, which is a component of the EPI Suite. This existing model uses the normal boiling point as input. Whilst this method is good in principle, the model was developed using a wide range of organic chemicals and only a few organosilicon compounds. Therefore, a validation procedure was undertaken to assess the applicability of the model to organosilicon compounds. It was noted that the MBBPVPWIN model gave a systematic error; therefore, the current model was developed to correct this. The current model is a linear regression based QSAR, with the vapour pressure prediction from MPBPVPWIN as the descriptor. The adapted model applies to organosilicon substances.
Key result
Temp.:
25 °C
Vapour pressure:
0.052 Pa
Conclusions:
A vapour pressure value of 5.2E-02 Pa at 25°C has been determined for the substance using an appropriate estimation method. The result is considered to be reliable.

Description of key information

Vapour pressure [3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl-(2E,4E)-hexa-2,4-dienoate]: 5.2E-02 Pa at 25°C (QSAR)
Vapour pressure [3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyl-(2E,4E)-2,4-hexadienoate]: <1.0E-03 Pa at 25°C (QSAR)
Vapour pressure [methanol]: 12790 Pa at 20°C

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Vapour pressure:
0.052 Pa
at the temperature of:
25 °C

Additional information

A vapour pressure value of 5.2E-02 Pa 25°C was determined for the substance with the use of a validated QSAR estimation method. The result is considered to be reliable.

In contact with water, the substance hydrolyses rapidly to form 3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyl-(2E,4E)-2,4-hexadienoate and methanol.

The vapour pressure of 3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyl-(2E,4E)-2,4-hexadienoate was determined to be 8.0E-07 Pa at 25°C with the use of the same validated QSAR estimation method as the parent substance. However, since the descriptor range for the model is between 10-3 to 105 Pa, the result was reported as a lower limit of <1.0E-03 Pa.

 

Methanol has a reported vapour pressure of 12790 Pa at 20°C (OECD 2004).
