Results and discussion

Boiling point
Atm. press.:
99.1 kPa
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
270 °C
Remarks on result:
other: "Dimethylacetylsuccinate" decomposed before boiling at about 230 °C. The decomposed test substance boiled from 245 °C on.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Dimethylacetylsuccinate decomposed before boiling. Decomposition was indicated by a significant change of colour at 230 °C. At about 245 °C the decomposed test substance started boiling and bubbles emerged rapidly from the lower open end of the capillary. Between 245 °C and 270 °C the test substance boiled but on momentary cooling the liquid did not rise in the capillary. Therefore no boiling temperature could be determined.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
"Dimethylacetylsuccinate" decomposed before boiling at about 230 °C. The decomposed test substance boiled from 245 °C on.
Executive summary:

The method of Siwoloboff was used.

The atmospheric pressure during the test was 99.1 kPa (calibrated barometer GPB 2300, Petrotest, Germany).

"Dimethylacetylsuccinate" decomposed before boiling at about 230 °C. The decomposed test substance boiled from 245 °C on.
