- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 111 (Hydrolysis as a Function of pH)
- Deviations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- Screening study examined: pH 2, 5, 7, 8.5 and 12 rather than guideline pH range 4, 7 and 9; duplicate tests were not performed; full analytical validation was not documented within the study; degradation products were not identified.

- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The test followed a method equivalent or similar to OECD TG 111 (hydrolysis as a function of pH) - as a screening study for the hydrolysis properties of the test substance. The screening study examined: pH 2, 5, 7, 8.5 and 12 using suitable buffers; at 40 °C for 28d by analytically monitoring by GC-FID the peak that represented constituents 1 and 2. The degradation is representative of (i) worst case kinetics and (ii) represents a simple majority on %wt terms of the substance in aqueous environment.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Radiolabelling:
- no
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- - Sampling intervals for the parent/transformation products: on a regular basis throughout the test (typically at time = 0, 0.25, 1, 2, 4, 7, 15, 21 and 28 days
- Sampling method: Small aliquots of the test solution are extracted with an organic solvent (typically cyclohexane or ethyl acetate) containing a hydrocarbon standard (typically C12, C17 or C20). The extracts are analyzed by GC-FID and the results are plotted as (Area/Area Std) expressed in [%]. The measurement at time = 0 is set at 100% and the succeeding measurements are calculated relatively to the time = 0 measurement. Therefore the curves represent the percentage of product remaining in the test solution at the time of analysis.
- Other observation, if any (e.g.: precipitation, color change etc.): None reported. - Buffers:
- - pH: test media are standard aqueous buffers at pH 2, pH 5, pH 7, pH 8.5 and pH 12 containing 1% of non ionic surfactant (Arkopal N 150).

- Executive summary:
The hydrolytic stability of the test item was investigated using a method similar or equivalent to OECD TG 111 (hydrolysis as a function of pH) and EU Method A.7. The test media are standard aqueous buffers at pH 2, pH 5, pH 7, pH 8.5 and pH 12 containing 1% of non-ionic surfactant (Arkopal N 150). The tests are done in accelerated conditions at 40°C for approximately one month (28d). 200 – 300 ppm of test substance are dissolved in the pH buffer containing the surfactant and put into storage in an oven at 40°C. Commercial reference grades of buffer are utilised as listed in documented literature sources. Small aliquots of the test solution are extracted with an organic solvent (typically cyclohexane or ethyl acetate) containing a hydrocarbon standard (typically C12, C17 or C20) on a regular basis throughout the test (typically at time = 0, 0.25, 1, 2, 4, 7, 15, 21 and 28 days). The extracts are analysed by GC-FID. Under the analytical conditions employed constituent 1 isomer was eluted and the results were then plotted with time to show the degradation curves of the substance. For constituent 1 of the test item at pH 5 there is evidence of hydrolytic instability of the test item. The test item rapidly degrades to 90% degradation within 10 days and by day 15 there is < 1% test item remaining. The t1/2 appears to be 48 hours. At pH 7 and pH 8.5 the test item appears under the conditions of the test, relatively stable up to 28 days with less than 10% degradation. It can be concluded that under the conditions of the present test the test substance is not hydrolytically stable as defined in the OECD TG 111 for hydrolysis as a function of pH at acidic pH ranges. Applicant assessment of the data indicates unexpected stability at pH 7 which may be influenced by the presence of constituent 3 preventing degradation within the test system.

Additional information
Hydrolysis:
Eq. or similar to OECD TG 111 - preliminary screening study, 2009: The hydrolytic stability of the test item was investigated using a method similar or equivalent to OECD TG 111 (hydrolysis as a function of pH) and EU Method A.7. The test media are standard aqueous buffers at pH 2, pH 5, pH 7, pH 8.5 and pH 12 containing 1% of non-ionic surfactant (Arkopal N 150). The tests are done in accelerated conditions at 40°C for approximately one month (28d). 200 – 300 ppm of test substance are dissolved in the pH buffer containing the surfactant and put into storage in an oven at 40°C. Commercial reference grades of buffer are utilised as listed in documented literature sources. Small aliquots of the test solution are extracted with an organic solvent (typically cyclohexane or ethyl acetate) containing a hydrocarbon standard (typically C12, C17 or C20) on a regular basis throughout the test (typically at time = 0, 0.25, 1, 2, 4, 7, 15, 21 and 28 days). The extracts are analysed by GC-FID. Under the analytical conditions employed constituent 1 isomer was eluted and the results were then plotted with time to show the degradation curves of the substance. For constituent 1 of the test item at pH 5 there is evidence of hydrolytic instability of the test item. The test item rapidly degrades to 90% degradation within 10 days and by day 15 there is < 1% test item remaining. The t1/2 appears to be 48 hours. At pH 7 and pH 8.5 the test item appears under the conditions of the test, relatively stable up to 28 days with less than 10% degradation. It can be concluded that under the conditions of the present test the test substance is not hydrolytically stable as defined in the OECD TG 111 for hydrolysis as a function of pH at acidic pH ranges. Applicant assessment of the data indicates unexpected stability at pH 7 which may be influenced by the presence of constituent 3 preventing degradation within the test system.
Water Solubility:
Flask Method, OECD TG 105, 2016: The water solubility of the substance was determined using the slow stirring flask method according to OECD TG 105 and EU Method A.6 under GLP. The test item water solubility was determined to be between two loading rates. Complete disappearance of chromatograph peak 2 occurred at both loading rates within the period of the test (24 to 72 hours) under the conditions of the study. Therefore the water solubility of the test item at 20°C is estimated on the basis of chromatograph peak 1. It was estimated to be 16.4 mg/L at and initial loading rate 30 mg/L and 63 mg/L at an initial loading rate of 300 mg/L. The pH of the aqueous samples was 7.8 - 8.8. Applicant assessment indicates there was clear hydrolytic degradation at (pH 7 to pH 8) during the conduct of the study. With potentially faster degradation at lower concentration of test item. The degradation rate occurred within a period of 24 to 72 hours. Within the lower loading rate all water solubility concentrations were based upon chromatograph peak 1. Which was observed to remain during the study. Within the higher loading rate the water solubility was based upon chromatograph peak 1 and 2. The latter chromatograph peak 2 completely disappeared during the period of the test (< 72 hours.
Conclusion: There is clear evidence of test item hydrolytic instability of specific constituents of the test item within the pH range 5 to 8.5 within the two separate studies and separate conditions. This was also evidenced in available ecotoxiciology studies in Daphnia sp. and Algae inhibition tests that utilised WAF loading rates of up to 100 mg/L. For example, detected actual concentrations of 6.1 mg/L (WAF: 10 mg/L) and 59 mg/L (WAF: 100 mg/L) in Daphnia medium (analytically maintained within 80 to 110% nominal) under static conditions. This corresponded to one specific test item component (oxydipropanol). No ecotoxicological effects were observed within the WAF loading ranges of concentration and between 48 and 72 hours, respectively.
