The solubility of isovanillin in water was 2.27 g/kg. The density of the solution is about 1 kg/L (about water density). After recalculation, the solubility of isovanillin in water is 2.27 g/L.

Conclusions:
Solubility of the test item at 20 ± 0.5 ºC and at pH ranging 5.85 - 5.87 in water is 2.27 g/L.
Executive summary:

The study of the water solubility of the test item was performed by the column elution method, according to OECD 105 / EU Method A.6 (GLP study). The test item was dissolved in acetone and added to inert support material. Then, the solvent was evaporated, and the loaded support material was soaked for 2h in 5 ml of water. This suspension was added to a micro-column and the test item was eluted until the concentration reached a plateau. The mass concentration of the eluate at this time was determined by UV-VIS spectrophotometry, and taken as the water solubility value. Based on the test results, the solubility of the test item in water was found to be 2.27 g/L, at 20 ± 0.5 ºC and at pH 5.85 - 5.87.
