Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Justification for type of information:
This study was conducted to OECD guidelines
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 112 (Dissociation Constants in Water)
GLP compliance:
not specified
Dissociating properties:
not determined
No.:
#1
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Remarks:
Direct titration in pure water is not possible due to low solubility (solubility 0.025 mg/L).

Titration with hydrochloric acid in water containing 50% 2-propanol as solubilizing agent:


Contrary to the OECD guidelines, titration was carried out in the presence of a solubilizing agent to improve solubility. Despite the content of 50% 2-propanol, 0.2 g of triflumuron did not dissolve in 50 ml of water-propanol mixture, so titration had to be carried out in a suspension.
The titration curve which was obtained showed no potential jump.
(Aminotriazole, which was measured as reference substance, produced a pK value of 4.20 under the same measurement conditions).


Titration with perchloric acid in glacial acetic acid:


In order to clarify the question of whether triflumuron has any basic properties at all, titration was carried out in glacial acetic acid, which is not specified in the OECD guidelines.
The titration curve which was obtained showed no potential jump.
(Aminotriazole, which was measured as reference substance, produced a pK value of -0.05 under the same measurement conditions).

Conclusions:
Due to poor water solubility (=0.04 mg/L), it was not possible to specify a pK value. Triflumuron exhibited no basic properties in aqueous solution.

Description of key information

Due to poor water solubility (≤0.04 mg/L), it was not possible to specify a pK value. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment
