pH 4
The pH value at the start of the test was measured to be 4.0. The temperature during the test varied between 49.9 and 50.1°C. It was observed that more than 90% of the test substance was hydrolysed
after 1 hour.
pH 7
The pH value at the start of the test was measured to be 7.1. The temperature during the test varied between 49.9 and 50.1°C. It was observed that 41% of the test substance was hydrolysed after 5 days.
pH 9
The pH value at the start of the test was measured to be 9.1. The temperature during the test varied between 50.0 and 50.1°C. It was observed that less than 10% of the test substance was hydrolysed after 5 days.
As more than 10% of hydrolysis after 5 days was observed for pH values 4 and 7, also Tier 2 had to be performed for these pH values. - Transformation products:

at pH 7 half-life is between 58 and 89 days at 25 °C
at pH 4 half-life is 4 hours at 25 °C
at pH 1.2 hydrolysis is instantly at 37 °C. - Executive summary:
The purpose of this study was to determine if the test substance would hydrolyze at environmentally relevant pH values, complying with the OECD Guideline No. 111.
In a preliminary phase of the study (Tier 1) it was observed that the test substance did not hydrolyze significantly at pH 9; less than 10% hydrolysis at 50°C in 5 days was observed. Therefore Tier 2 of the
study was carried out only for the pH values 4 and 7.
An overview of the calculated half-lives of the test substance at the different pH values and tested temperatures is displayed in the table below. Also the interpolated half-lives for the temperature of 25°C
are displayed.

* Hydrolysis calculated from nominal concentration
The temperature during the test was measured to be 37.0°C. The pH of the buffer solution was measured at the start of the test and was 1.2. From the start of the test up to 1 hour a remaining
concentration of less than limit of quantification was detected and the testing was stopped. Hydrolysis was calculated using the nominal initial concentration and was calculated to be more than 95% from the beginning of the test onwards.
Description of key information
The speed of hydrolysis differs significantly per pH level.
At pH 9 the substance is stable with a half-life > 1 year
at pH 7 half-life is between 58 and 89 days at 25 °C
at pH 4 half-life is 4 hours at 25 °C
at pH 1.2 hydrolysis is instantly at 37 °C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Half-life for hydrolysis:
- 89 d
- at the temperature of:
- 25 °C
Additional information
One study is available conducted in compliance with agreed protocols and guidelines (OECD 111). The study report was conclusive, done to a valid guideline and the study was conducted under GLP conditions. The substance was stable at pH 9, rather stale at pH 7 and hydrolytically instable at pH 4.
