Key result

Boiling pt.:

260.4 °C

Atm. press.:

1 013.25 hPa

Capillary method:

Test	Measured boiling temperature		Measured atmospheric pressure	Boiling temperature corrected to normal atmospheric pressure
	°C	K	hPa	°C	K
1	258.3	531.5	970	260.3	533.5
2	258.3	531.5	970	260.4	533.6
Mean value	258.3	531.5	970	260.4	533.6

 

Approximate accuracy of the instrument: ± 0.3 K (at 373 K)

Normalization of the boiling point to Tn (BÜCHI M-565):

 

Tn = Tm [1 + (In(1013/P)/11.3)]

Tn: boiling temperature in K at normal atmospheric pressure (1013.25 hPa)

Tm: measured boiling temperature in K

P: atmospheric pressure in hPa

ln: natural logarithm

 

The empirical value of 11.3 (see denominator of the formula above) is reported from Co. BÜCHI and results from the entropy of vaporization of the Clausius-Clapeyron-Equation adapted to the Pictet-Trouton-Law and is applied for polar and nonpolar solvents.

DSC/TGA:

In addition to the capillary tube / photocell method, a DSC / TG measurement was performed to show the characteristics of the test substance during heating.

The DSC diagram (blue dashed line) shows a broad endothermic peak. The simultaneous TG (green continuous line) shows a significant loss of weight in the range of this peak. Details is attached below.

The peak value at 263.8°C (967 hPa) of the DSC measurement is in good accordance with the value of the boiling temperature of the capillary tube / photocell method and therefore confirms this

Conclusions:

A boiling point value of 260.4 °C (533.6 K) at 1013 hPa was determined using a relevant test method and in compliance with ISO 9001:2008. The result is considered to be reliable.

Additional information

A boiling point value of 260.4 °C (533.6 K) was determined using a relevant test method (capillary tube method with photocell detection) and in compliance with ISO 9001:2008. A confirmatory DSC/TGA analysis was performed; a broad endothermic peak with corresponding weight loss was observed from 240.4°C with the peak value at 263.8°C at 967 hPa was obtained. The result is considered to be reliable.

A predicted boiling point of 240°C was obtained for the substance using a QSAR validation method. In available secondary sources to which reliability could not be assigned, boiling point values of 262°C and 290°C were reported for the substance. A boiling point value of 90°C at lower pressure of 0.7 hPa was also reported for the substance in another secondary source.
