Conclusions:
The melting point of DBTU (1,3-dibutyl-2-thiourea) is determined to be about 63-67 °C
Executive summary:

A study was performed according to OECD Test guiede 10 in order to investigate the melting point of the test substance DBTU (1,3 -dibutyl-2 -thiourea). The melting point of DBTU is determined to be about 65.3°C on average (statiscals values), specifications are 63 -67°C.

Description of key information

Key informations gathers from different sources are summarized below:

  • According to 5 publications in ACS, melting point of 1,3-dibutyl-2-thiourea is in the range: 61-71°C.
  •   According to 10 references in REAXSYS, melting point of DBTU is in the range 62-65.5°C
  •   According to the database Chemis-Grundbestand - BGVV/CHEMIS (available on website http://en.gsbl.de/gsblweb30/changeView.do?viewname=ALLE_MERKMAL), DBTU is a crystalline product white to yellow/brown having a melting point of about 63°C
  •   According to 3 reference on REASYS, melting point of DBTU is in the range 61-86°C
  •  According to 10 publication in REGISTERY, melting point of DBTU is about 61-71°C. 

A study was performed according to OECD Test guide 10 in order to investigate the melting point of the test substance DBTU (1,3 -dibutyl-2 -thiourea). The melting point of DBTU is determined to be about 65.3°C on average (statistically values), specifications are 63 -67°C.
