Two DSC-measurements show an endothermic effect in the range 180 - 230 °C with an onset temperature of approximately 222 °C.

 Ident-No.  Onset / °C  Temperature range / °C  Crucible
 13598  221.97  180 - 230  Aluminium with an aperture
 13599  221.25  180 - 230  Aluminium with an aperture

A graphical presentation of the DSC run No. 13599 in an aluminium pan with a hole is given as attached background material.

For the correction t of the boiling point to standard atmospheric pressure (1013.3hPa) the equation, table and graphs of H.B. Hass and R.F. Newton In „CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 74lh ed. 1993 -1994", pages 15 -16 and 15 -17 were used.

t = [(273.15 + t) (3.0057 -log p)] / [ф + 0.15(3.0057 - log p)] (t in °C, p in hPa)

For the estimation of ф the test substance was classified in group 2 (Hydrocarbons, Ethers) according to the table of H.B Hass and R.F. Newton (see figure 3 on page 13).

ф (222 °C, group 2) = 5.0 (from the graph).
