Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
not specified
Conclusions:
The second order hydrolysis rate constant of test chemical was determined to be 0.16 L/mol-sec with a corresponding half-lives of 1.4 yrs and 51 days at pH 7 and 8, respectively.
Executive summary:

The half-life and base catalyzed second order hydrolysis rate constant was determined using a structure estimation method of the test chemical . The second order hydrolysis rate constant of test chemical was determined to be 0.16L/mol-sec with a corresponding half-lives of 1.4 yrs and 51 days at pH 7 and 8, respectively. Based on the half-life values, it is concluded that the test chemical is not hydrolysable.
