Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
The logKoc value has been calculated from the logKow using the equation of the TGD.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Koc at 20 °C:
- 240
Additional information
Based on the low logKow of anisole, it is expected to have a low potential for adsorption onto soil and sediment (i.e. the substance has a logKow below 3). Moreover, as the substance is readily biodegradable, it is considered to decompose rapidly in aquatic compartment.
For the calculation in the CSA, the equation of the TGD (Sabljic and Günsten, 1995) is applied to derive the logKoc value of the substance from its log Kow value. As anisole is an organic substance with no specific functional group, the equation for "nonhydrophics" is selected as follows:
LogKoc = 0.52 * logKow + 1.02 = 0.52 * 2.62 + 1.02 = 2.38
[LogKoc: 2.38]
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
