Endpoint:
hydrolysis
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
May 2020 - January 2021
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 111 (Hydrolysis as a Function of pH)
Deviations:
no
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Since the test item was expected to hydrolyze rather fast, the conditions of the preliminary test were modified from the conditions given in the guideline. The test was carried out at 20 °C ± 0.5 °C. Samples were taken at the start and after 10 minutes and 30 minutes.
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Storage conditions: Controlled room temperature (15-25°C, ≤70% relative humidity), protected from light and humidity (stored in a tightly closed container)
Radiolabelling:
no
Analytical monitoring:
yes
Details on sampling:
Since the test item itself cannot be determined by a suitable analytical method, the samples were analysed for the tentantive hydrolysis product LZ 399. The analysis of LZ 399 was carried out by GC/FID detection - using matrix matched standards - after saturation of the samples with an excess of sodium chloride and extraction with ethylacetate.
Buffers:
- pH 4: Mixture of 360 mL of 0.1 M sodium hydroxide, 2000 mL of 0.1 M potassium citrate and 1640 mL of water. Measured pH value: 4.09
- pH 7: Mixture of 1184 mL of 0.1 M sodium hydroxide, 2000 mL of 0.1 M potassium dihydrogenphosphate and 816 mL of water. Measured pH value: 6.99
- pH 9: Mixture of 825 mL of 0.1 M sodium hydroxide, 2000 mL of boric acid and 1148 mL of water. Measured pH value: 8.98
Details on test conditions:
Since the test item was expected to hydrolyze rather fast, the conditions of the preliminary test were modified from the conditions given in the guideline. The test was carried out at 20 °C ± 0.5 °C. Samples of the test item in buffer solution pH 4, pH 7 and pH 9 were prepared and incubated for 30 minutes. Samples were taken immediately after preparation, after 10 minutes and 30 minutes.

Preliminary study:
The test item is not stable in aqueous buffer pH 4, 7 and 9 and immediately hydrolyses completely into LZ 399. Thus, the half-life time for hydolytical degradation is < 1 minute for buffer solutions at pH 4, 7 and 9.
Test performance:
The test was carried out at 20 °C ± 0.5 °C. Samples of the test item in buffer solution pH 4, pH 7 and pH 9 were prepared and incubated for 30 minutes. Samples were taken immediately after preparation, after 10 minutes and 30 minutes.

Details on hydrolysis and appearance of transformation product(s):
The test item is not stable in aqueous buffer pH 4, 7 and 9 and immediately hydrolyses completely into LZ 399. Thus, the half-life time for hydolytical degradation is < 1 minute for buffer solutions at pH 4, 7 and 9.
