Description of key information
Additional information
Hydrolysis
Parent compound 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl chloride (CAS 36727-29-4): In contact with water the substance will hydrolyse rapidly.
Hydrolysis product 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoic acid (CAS 3302-10-1): According to structural properties hydrolysis is not expected/probable.
Phototransformation in air
Parent compound 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl chloride (CAS 36727-29-4): After evaporation or exposure to air, the substance will be slowly degraded by photochemical processes.
Hydrolysis product 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoic acid (CAS 3302-10-1): After evaporation or exposure to air, the substance will be slowly degraded by photochemical processes.
Biodegradation
Parent compound 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl chloride (CAS 36727-29-4): The
substance is considered moderately/partly biodegradable according to
OECD criteria. Furthermore, the substance rapidly hydrolyses to form
3,5,5-trimethylhexanoic acid (CAS 3302-10-1).
Hydrolysis product 3,5,5 -trimethylhexanoic acid (CAS 3302-10-1): ready biodegradable according to OECD criteria.
Bioaccumulation
Parent compound 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl chloride (CAS 36727-29-4): significant accumulation in organisms is not to be expected.
Hydrolysis product 3,5,5 -trimethylhexanoic acid (CAS 3302-10-1): significant accumulation in organisms is not to be expected.
Adsorption
Parent compound 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl chloride (CAS 36727-29-4): Due to rapid hydrolysis, 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl chloride will not be present in the environment for a significant time. Therefore, the fate in the environment is mainly based on the hydrolysis product 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoic acid.
Hydrolysis product 3,5,5 -trimethylhexanoic acid (CAS 3302-10-1): Adsorption to the solid soil phase is not to be expected.
Henry's Law Constant
Parent compound 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl chloride (CAS 36727-29-4): Due to rapid hydrolysis, 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl chloride will not be present in the environment for a significant time. Therefore, the fate in the environment is mainly based on the hydrolysis product 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoic acid.
Hydrolysis product 3,5,5 -trimethylhexanoic acid (CAS 3302-10-1): From the water surface the substance is not expected to evaporate into the atmosphere.
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).
