Description of key information
Parent compound: 2-ethylhexanoyl chloride: not applicable
Hydrolysis product: 2-ethylhexanoic acid: pKa = 4.72 (SPARC v4.2; BASF, 2009)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Parent compound: In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex IX, the dissociation constant study does not need to be performed as the substance is hydrolytically unstable (half-life less than 12 hours).
Hydrolysis product: The pKa of 2 -ethylhexanoic acid is 4.72, indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in anion form in the environment (SPARC v4.2; BASF, 2009).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
