Results and discussion

Boiling point
Key result
Boiling pt.:
> 150 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 1 013.25 hPa
Remarks on result:
other: reaction and/or decomposition of the test item at > 150°C (> 423K) was observed

Any other information on results incl. tables

An endothermic effect was observed between 25°C and 125°C followed by a broad endothermic effect starting at 150°C. The endothermic effect was most likely obtained due to melting of the test item. The second endothermic effect was probably obtained due to reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

After the experiment, a dark brown molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: white to slightly yellow). The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item. Based on this visual observation, it was found that the test item had molten and the change of the colour demonstrated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Based on this result, the test item has a boiling point > 150°C at 1013.25 hPa.
Executive summary:

The boiling temperature of D-Ribose was tested by DSC according to OECD 103 guideline study.

Reaction and/or decomposition of the test item was observed during DSC experiment at temperatures of > 150°C (> 423K). Boiling of the test item was not observed below the temperature at which reaction and/or decomposition started.
