Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Name of test material: d-Carvone- IUPAC name: (5S)-2-methyl-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one- Molecular formula: C10H14O- Molecular weight: 150.22 g/mole- Smiles :C1[C@H](CC=C(C1=O)C)C(C)=C- Inchl: 1S/C10H14O/c1-7(2)9-5-4-8(3)10(11)6-9/h4,9H,1,5-6H2,2-3H3/t9-/m0/s1- Substance type: Organic- Physical state: Colorless to pale-yellow liquid
Key result
Remarks on result:
other: d-Carvone ignites only when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of 950°C is brought in contact with it.Thus it can be concluded that substance is flammable only at high temperature of about 950°C.
Conclusions:
d-Carvone did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C pressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that d-Carvone is not auto-flammable.
Executive summary:

d-Carvone did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C pressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that d-Carvone is not auto-flammable.
