supporting study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
accepted calculation method
Remarks:
The vapour pressure has been calculated with two different calculation programs. According to “Endpoint specific guidance R.7.1.5.3” are SPARC and MPBPWIN recommended as calculation programs for vapour pressure.
Justification for type of information:
Since the vapour pressure was predicted to be below 10 Pa which is below the limit of our experimental method calculation of vapour pressure was selected.

These vapour pressure values were then plotted on a graph of log P vs. 1/T, giving the following linear regression parameters: slope -3997.9, y-intercept 13.4217, Correlation Coefficient (r) -0.9992 and Coefficient of Determination (r2) 0.9983.

The vapour pressure was measured/ calculated to be 0.608 Pa at 20 °C & 1.03 Pa at 25 °C if a molecular weight of 104.099 g/mol is used for the calculation. The vapour pressure was measured/ calculated to be 0.510 Pa at 20 °C & 0.863 Pa at 25 °C if a molecular mass of 148.132 g/mol is used for the calculation.
