Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Relatively stable under neutral and slightly acidic conditions. Unstable under alkaline conditions.

Executive summary:

The 15th edition of The Pesticide Manual gives the following information on the stability of Profenofos:

Relatively stable under neutral and slightly acidic conditions. Unstable under alkaline conditions.

DT50 values calculated at 20 degree C give values of 93 days (pH5), 14.6 days (pH7) and 5.7 hours (pH9).

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The hydrolysis of profenofos was estimated using the HYDROWIN program in EPISUITE based on the structure of profenofos which is inputted in the form of SMILES notation.

Conclusions:
The half-life of profenofos in is estimated to be 2.98 days at pH 7, slightly longer in slightly acidic conditions (3.064 days at pH5) and much shorter in alkaline conditions (2.477 hours at pH 10).
Executive summary:

The hydrolytic stability of profenofos was estimated using EPISUITE after inputting the structure in the form of SMILES notation.

Results show that degradation of profenofos is quicker in alkaline conditions than in neutral or slightly acidic conditions.

The half-life at pH7 is estimated to be 2.98 days.
