Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

RESULTS


References:


For the reference substances listed in the OECD Test Guideline No. 112 the following pKa values were determined by the method:

* This value in the guideline 112 seems to be incorrect:The standard IUPAC Table (D.D. Perrin, Diss.Constants of Organ. Bases in Aqu. Solution, Butterworths, 1965) lists the following values for 4-Chloroaniline ( p.68)

Conclusions:
A dissociation constant (pKa) of 4.64 at at 20 °C was found in water.
Executive summary:

The study was performed to determine the dissociation constant of the test substance in water. The study was performed in accordance with the OECD TG 112 and GLP principles. A dissociation constant (pKa) of 4.64 at 20 °C was found in water.
