Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
dissociation constant
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is hydrolytically unstable (half-life less than 12 hours)

Description of key information

Dissociation constant [amino groups of the constituents]: approximately 10

Dissociation constant [silanol groups of hydrolysis products]: pKa approximately 10

Dissociation constant [amino groups of hydrolysis products]: 9.7 – 10.9

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The requirement to test the substance for dissociation constant is waived because in contact with water the constituents of the substance are expected to hydrolyse moderately to rapidly to form their corresponding silanol hydrolysis products. The typical dissociation constants for the hydroxyl protons of silanetriols are available from studies in other silanetriols (phenylsilanetriol). This suggests that silanols are not expected to undergo significant dissociation within the range of pH relevant in the environment or in vivo.

Phenylsilanetriol has a measured first dissociation constant ca.10 in a reliable study using a relevant test method. Additional information is given in a supporting report (PFA 2013b) attached in Section 13.

The dissociation constant of the amino groups of the constituents of the substance is expected to be approximately 10. Similarly, the amino groups of the silanol hydrolysis products have predicted dissociation constant of 9.7 - 10.9.
