* The results at pH 8 were excluded from the determination of the final pKa mean and range on the basis that the accuracy of the estimation method decreased as the distance between the dissociation constant and the aqueous phase pH increased, pH 8.0 being >1.5 units from the final estimation value. This is consistent with the approach used in the titration method in OECD method 112.

Description of key information

Dissociation constant: (chloromethyl)triethoxysilane) not relevant
Dissociation constant (silanol hydrolysis product): approximately 10, based on read-across from phenylsilanetriol

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 substance rapidly hydrolyses to form chloromethylsilanetriol and ethanol. There are no reliable measured data for the dissociation constant of chloromethylsilanetriol. The typical dissociation constants for the hydroxyl protons of silanetriols are available from studies in other silanetriols. It is appropriate to read-across dissociation constant data for chloromethylsilanetriol from 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 approximately 10 in a reliable study using a relevant test method, (reliability 1; read-across conclusion is given reliability 2). Additional information is given in a supporting report (PFA, 2013b) attached in Section 13 of the REACH technical dossier.
