Key result

Atm. press.:

1 021.3 hPa

Decomposition:

yes

Decomp. temp.:

>= 283.2 - <= 283.9 °C

Remarks on result:

not determinable

Remarks:

Test substance decomposes before boiling point.

As the temperature increased, the test item in outer capillary became dark (at about 280.0 °C the test item was yellow). The observed decomposition temperature range was 283.2 – 283.9 °C. From visual observation, it is evident that the test item decomposes below the boiling point under atmospheric pressure of 1021.3 hPa. At about 320°C, the colour of test item in the capillary was dark brown.

Conclusions:

The test item descomposes in the temperature range of 283.2 – 283.9 ºC, below its boiling point under atmospheric pressure (1021.3 hPa).

Executive summary:

The determination of the boiling point of α-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1H-imidazole-1-ethanol was carried out according to EU method A.2 (method according to Siwoloboff) / OECD 103, with GLP. The test substance was found to decompose at 283.2 -283.9ºC, below its boiling point.

Description of key information

Key study. The boiling point of the test item was determined according to OECD 103 under GLP conditions.

The test substance was found to decompose at 283.2 - 283.9ºC, below its boiling point.
