Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Administrative data

Endpoint:
phototransformation in air
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: GLP status not known, guideline not known, published in peer reviewed literature, acceptable with restrictions
Justification for type of information:
A discussion and report on the read across strategy is given as an attachment in Section 13.
Cross-reference
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The author used data from other investigators. These data were generated using two methods: absolute and relative constant techniques. The author then applied a least squares analysis of degradation rate constants for organic chemicals by hydroxyl radicals developed by other investigators.
GLP compliance:
not specified
Estimation method (if used):
The rate constants were taken from experiments using relative constant techniques.
DT50:
10.2 h
Test condition:
Author reports a recommended rate constant of 3.75E-11 cm3 molecule-1sec-1. Half life is calculated based on this rate constant and a hydroxyl radical concentration of 5E5 molecule.cm-3.
Validity criteria fulfilled:
not applicable
Conclusions:
The estimated half life of 1-hexene is 10.2 hours based on a recommended reaction rate with hydroxyl radicals and the concentration of hydroxyl radicals recommended in the Technical Guidance Document (2003).
Executive summary:

Measured data from the author and other investigators were quality assessed and then used to develop rate constants for different chemicals. Therefore, this value represents a valid rate constant for 1 -hexene based on all valid studies at the time of publication.
