Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
accepted calculation method
Justification for type of information:
1. SOFTWARE
see Mackay, D. 2001. "Multimedia Environmental Models: The Fugacity Approach - Second Edition", Lewis Publishers, Boca Raton, pp. 1-261.

2. MODEL (incl. version number)

4. SCIENTIFIC VALIDITY OF THE MODEL
For details see Mackay, D. (2001); Mackay et al. (1996)

5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
For details see Mackay, D. (2001); Mackay et al. (1996)

6. ADEQUACY OF THE RESULT
A Level I calculation is not required under REACh but gives a general impression of the likely media into which a chemical will tend to partition and an indication of relative concentrations in each medium.

Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
2-methylcyclohexylamine
EC Number:
230-277-5
EC Name:
2-methylcyclohexylamine
Cas Number:
7003-32-9
Molecular formula:

Specific details on test material used for the study:
The calculation was performed for 2-Methylcyclohexylamine CAS 7003-32-9, which is one of the representative compounds of the reaction product of 2,4-Dinitrotoluene and 2,6-Dinitrotoluene and hydrogen, deaminated (EC 943-517-5, MCHAmix). For more details, see attached document 'MCHAmix justification substance identity and optical activity' in IUCLID chapter 1.2.

Results and discussion

Percent distribution in media

Air (%):
44.8
Water (%):
54.2
Soil (%):
0.481
Sediment (%):
0.486

Any other information on results incl. tables

Over time, the substance will preferentially distribute into the compartment Water (54.2%) and into the compartment Air (44.8%). The substance will also slightly distribute to the compartments Soil and Sediment (0.5%). The modeled data refer to the uncharged molecule (calculated pKa value: 10.38; see IUCLID Ch. 4.21). The substance will be ionized over the environmentally relevant pH range (pH 4 -9) based on a pKa of 10.38; therefore, the distribution into the water compartment may be underestimated.
