Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Thymol is a substance described in Beilstein's database, which covers the scientific literature and contains experimentally validated information on millions of chemical reactions and substances from original scientific publications. Thymol with handbook registry number of 1907135 has a boiling point in the range of 231.8 - 233.5 °C at 1003 - 1013 hPa (Beilstein, 2009).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Boiling point at 101 325 Pa:
- 231.8 °C
Additional information
The key study for thymol where a boiling point in the range of 231.8 - 233.5 °C is indicated is supported by many other literature data which can be found in various collections of data. The values stated are all in the above mentioned range.
For the chemical safety assessment the lowest indicated value of 231.8 °C was chosen as key value as this value is a kind of worst-case value, because a lower boiling point e.g. affects the vapour pressure.
A pressure was not reported for some boiling point values, but this does not affect the results. It can be assumed, that the determinations were carried out at room conditions with atmospheric pressure of about 1013 hPa.
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).
