- Details on sampling:
- The concentrations of the test substance were determined immediately after preparation (t=0) and at several sampling points after t=0. The samples taken were cooled to room temperature using running tap water. Immediately after cooling, 4 ml of each sample was added to 4 ml hexane for extraction of the test substance by shaking for 30 seconds. The extracts were subsequently analysed.
Samples have to be extracted with n-hexane as soon as possible to maximise accuracy and repeatability. - Buffers:

- Composition of buffer: 0.1 M solution of 16.6% (v/v) 0.1 M sodium acetate and 83.4% (v/v) 0.1 M acetic acid. The buffer contains 0.0009% (w/v) sodium azide.
- pH: 7
- Type and final molarity of buffer: Phosphate

- Type and final molarity of buffer: Borate
- Composition of buffer: 0.1 M solution of 0.1 M boric acid and 0.1 M potassium chloride adjusted to pH 9 using 10 N sodium hydroxide. The buffer contains 0.0009% (w/v) sodium azide. - Details on test conditions:

Description of key information
Hydrolysis: 0.17 hours at pH 4, 19 hours at pH 7 and 22 hours at pH 9 and 25°C (EU Method C.7)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Half-life for hydrolysis:
- 19 h
- at the temperature of:
- 25 °C
Additional information
Four measured hydrolysis studies are available for the submission substance. Hydrolysis of the substance was determined in a study conducted in accordance with EU Method C.7 and in compliance with GLP (Brekelmans 2012). The result is considered to be reliable and is selected as the key study. The half-lives obtained are:
pH 4: 0.24 h at 20°C and 0.17 hours at 25°C
pH 7: 24 hours at 20°C, 19 hours at 25°C, 15 hours at 30°C and 4.7 hours at 50°C
pH 9: 29 hours at 20°C, 22 hours at 25°C, 18 hours at 30°C and 4.6 hours at 50°C
In addition, three preliminary studies are available for dicyclopentyl(dimethoxy)silane, CAS 126990-35-0; EC No. 404-370-8. In Dow Corning Corporation (1991), hydrolysis half-lives of 119.5 minutes at pH 3.9, 110 minutes at pH 7.1 and 49.1 minutes at pH 9.2 and 50°C were obtained for the substance. Also, in Hogg (1995), hydrolysis half-lives of <2.4 hours at pH 4, pH 7 and pH 9 and 25°C were obtained for the submission substance in accordance with EU Method C.7. Similarly, in Greinert 1995, hydrolysis half-lives of 4.7 hours at pH 7 and 4.2 hours at pH 9 and 50°C were obtained for the substance according to EU Method C.7. In the same study, half-lives of 10 hours at pH 7.07 and 11.6 hours at pH 8.96 and 39°C were obtained for the substance.
Analysis of parent substance in test media by gas chromatography was undertaken as part of an algal inhibition study performed using dicyclopentyl(dimethoxy)silane (SafePharm Laboratories Ltd. 1996d). This suggests that the half-life of the substance is approximately 24 hours at 24⁰C and pH range 8-10. This is limited evidence for understanding of the half-life, but may be indicative.
The hydrolysis products are dicyclopentylsilanediol (1 mole) and methanol (2 moles).
The hydrolysis data for substances used for read-across purposes for other endpoints are discussed below.
Hydrolysis of the read-across substance cyclohexyl(dimethoxy)methylsilane (CAS 17865-32-6)
Data for the substance, cyclohexyl(dimethoxy)methylsilane (CAS 17865-32-6) are read-across to the submission substance, dicyclopentyl(dimethoxy)silane (CAS 126990-35-0) for genetic toxicity in vivo endpoint. The structural similarity, silanol hydrolysis products and the rate of hydrolysis of the two substances are relevant to this read-across, as discussed in the appropriate section for the endpoint.
For cyclohexyl(dimethoxy)methylsilane, the hydrolysis half-lives are read-across from the submission substance itself as discussed above.
The hydrolysis products are cyclohexylmethylsilanediol (1 mole) and methanol (2 moles).
Hydrolysis of the read-across substance dichloro(dicyclopentyl)silane (CAS 139147-73-2)
Data for the substance, dichloro(dicyclopentyl)silane, CAS 139147-73-2 are read-across to the submission substance dicyclopentyl(dimethoxy)silane (CAS 126990-35-0) for the short-term toxicity to fish, short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates and toxicity to microorganims endpoints. The formation of the same silanol hydrolysis products and the rate of hydrolysis of the two substances are relevant to this read-across, as discussed in the appropriate sections for the endpoints.
For dichloro(dicyclopentyl)silane, hydrolysis half-lives of <1 minute at pH 4, pH 7 and pH 9 and 25°C were read-across from other dichlorosilanes.
The hydrolysis products are dicyclopentylsilanediol (1 mole) and hydrochloric acid (2 moles).
Hydrolysis of the read-across substance dicyclopentylsilanediol (CAS 211495-85-1)
Data for the substance, dicyclopentylsilanediol, CAS 211495-85-1 are read-across to the submission substance dicyclopentyl(dimethoxy)silane (CAS 126990-35-0) for the repeated dose toxicity oral endpoint. For the bacteria mutagenicity and in vitro cytogenicity endpoints, the data for dicyclopentylsilanediol are used as a supporting study.
Dicyclopentylsilanediol is the silanol hydrolysis product of the submission substance, dicyclopentyl(dimethoxy)silane (CAS 126990-35-0).
Dicyclopentylsilanediol does not have functional groups that are susceptible to hydrolysis.
