4. SCIENTIFIC VALIDITY OF THE (Q)SAR MODEL
A reliable QSAR model was used to calculate the water solubility of the isomers of 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, di-C8-10-alkyl esters (CAS 71662-46-9). The water solubilities were calculated using the WATERNT v1.01 module embedded within the EPISuite computer model. The estimation methodology of the WATERNT Program (estimation of water solubility by fragments) was initially described in a document prepared for the US EPA (Meylan, 1995).
EPISuite and its modules (including WATERNT) have been utilized by the scientific community for prediction of phys/chem properties and environmental fate and effect properties since the 1990’s. The program underwent a comprehensive review by a panel of the US EPA’s independent Science Advisory Board (SAB) in 2007. The SAB summarized that the EPA used sound science to develop and refine EPISuite. The SAB also stated that the property estimation routines (PERs) satisfy the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) principles established for quantitative structure-activity relationship ((Q)SAR) validation.
The EPISuite modules (including WATERNT) have been incorporated into the OECD Toolbox. Inc lusion in the OECD toolbox requires specific documentation, validation and acceptability criteria and subjects EPISuite to international use, review, providing a means for receiving additional and ongoing input for improvements. WATERNT is listed as one of the QSARs for use in predicting the water solubility of organic compounds (Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance). In summary, the EPISuite modules (including WATERNT) have had their scientific validity established repeatedly. https://www.epa.gov/tsca-screening-tools/epi-suitetm-estimation-program-interface
- Defined endpoint and unambiguous algorithm:
WATERNT estimates the water solubility of organic compounds at 25oC. WATERNT requires only a chemical structure to estimate a solubility. The estimation methodology is based upon a "fragment constant" method very similar to the method of the KOWWIN Program which estimates octanol-water partition coefficients. WATERNT initially separates a molecule into distinct atom/fragments. In general, each non-hydrogen atom (e.g. carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, etc.) in a structure is a "core" for a fragment; the exact fragment is determined by what is connected to the atom.
Coefficients for individual fragments and groups in WATERNT were derived by multiple regression of 1000 reliably measured water solubility values.
Results of two successive multiple regressions (first for atom/fragments and second for correction factors) yield the following general equation for estimating water solubility of any organic compound:
log WatSol (moles/L) = Σ(fi * ni) + Σ(cj * nj) + 0.24922
(n = 1128, correlation coef (r2) = 0.940, standard deviation = 0.537, avg deviation = 0.355)
where Σ(fi * ni) is the summation of fi (the coefficient for each atom/fragment) times ni (the number of times the atom/fragment occurs in the structure) and Σ(cj * nj) is the summation of cj (the coefficient for each correction factor) times nj (the number of times the correction factor is applied in the molecule).
- Defined domain of applicability:
According to the WATERNT documentation, there is currently no universally accepted definition of model domain. However, the documentation does provide information for reliability of the calculations. Estimates will possibly be less accurate for compounds that 1) have a MW outside the range of the training set compounds and/or 2) that have more instances of a given fragment than the maximum for all training set compounds. It is also possible that a compound may have a functional group(s) or other structural features not represented in the training set, and for which no fragment coefficient was developed.
- Appropriate measures of goodness-of-fit and robustness and predictivity:
Total Training Set Statistics (MW only): Number of substances in dataset = 1128, Correlation coef (r2) = 0.940, Std. dev. = 0.537, Avg. dev. = 0.355.
Training Set Estimation Error: within ≤ 0.20 - 47.4%, within ≤0.40 - 73.2%, within ≤ 0.50 – 79.7%, within ≤ 0.60 - 83.7%, within ≤ 0.80 - 90.2%, within ≤ 0.90 - 93.3%.
- Mechanistic interpretation: Preliminary results of multiple-linear regression of fragment constants and correction factors indicate that the methodology from this study (which is analogous to the KOWWIN methodology) can accurately predict water solubility.
5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
As described above, according to the WATERNT documentation, there is currently no universally accepted definition of model domain. In general, the intended application domain for all models embedded in EPISuite is organic chemicals. Specific compound classes, besides organic chemicals, require additional correction factors. Indicators for the general applicability of the WATERNT model are the molecular weight of the target substance and the identified number of individual fragments in comparison to the training set. The training set molecular weights are within the range of 30.30 – 627.62, with an average MW of 187.73.
The molecular weight range of the 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, di-C8-10- alkyl ester isomers is 390 - 447, which falls within the range of the training set.
For each of the three isomers, an experimental water solubility database match was located. For the C8-C8 and the C10-C10 isomers an exact much was retrieved.
The maximum number of each fragment in any of the training set compounds are available in the model documentation. The following (max.) numbers of fragments were found in the target chemical, the respective maximum training set numbers for each fragment are given in the last column:

All three isomers are within the MW range of the training set. The number of the “-CH2- [aliphatic carbon]” fragment exceeds the maximum number of this fragment in the raining set compounds for two of the isomers. This is not considered to impact the reliability of the results, as the calculated values are in line with the experimental data for the individual isomers.
As a result 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, di-C8-10-alkyl esters would not be considered outside the estimation domain. In addition, for two of the three isomers exact structural matches in the experimental database have been found, with water solubility values close to the QSAR results supporting the suitability of this method.
6. ADEQUACY OF THE RESULT
Based on the experimental difficulties for multi component compounds, the WATERNT calculations are fit for the purpose of identifying a certain water solubility range. In case of the underlying target substance, the calculated water solubility values for the individual isomers are in the same range as the obtained experimental results reported in the literature. Hence, the calculations are adequate for the purpose of classification and labelling and/or risk assessment.
The estimated water solubilities were <0.001 mg/l.
The representative SMILES notations used for the predictions were: CCCCCCCCCCOC(=O)c1ccccc1C(=O)OCCCCCCCC, CCCCCCCCCCOC(=O)c1ccccc1C(=O)OCCCCCCCCCC, and CCCCCCCCOC(=O)c1ccccc1C(=O)OCCCCCCCC.
The WATERNT predicted water solubility values are considered valid and fit for purpose.

4. SCIENTIFIC VALIDITY OF THE (Q)SAR MODEL
A reliable QSAR model was used to calculate the water solubility of the isomers of 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, di-C8-10-alkyl esters (CAS 71662-46-9). The water solubilities were calculated using the WSKOWWIN v1.43 module embedded within the EPISuite computer model. WSKOWWIN™ estimates the water solubility (WSol) of an organic compound using the compounds log octanol-water partition coefficient (Kow). EPISuite and its modules (including WSKOWWIN) have been utilized by the scientific community for prediction of phys/chem properties and environmental fate and effect properties since the 1990’s. The program underwent a comprehensive review by a panel of the US EPA’s independent Science Advisory Board (SAB) in 2007. The SAB summarized that the EPA used sound science to develop and refine EPISuite. The SAB also stated that the property estimation routines (PERs) satisfy the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) principles established for quantitative structure-activity relationship ((Q)SAR) validation.
The EPISuite modules (including WSKOWWIN) have been incorporated into the OECD Toolbox. Inc lusion in the OECD toolbox requires specific documentation, validation and acceptability criteria and subjects EPISuite to international use, review, providing a means for receiving additional and ongoing input for improvements. WSKOWWIN is listed as one of the QSARs for use in predicting the water solubility of organic compounds (Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance). In summary, the EPISuite modules (including WSKOWWIN) have had their scientific validity established repeatedly. https://www.epa.gov/tsca-screening-tools/epi-suitetm-estimation-program-interface
- Defined endpoint and unambiguous algorithm:
WSKOWWIN estimates water solubility for any compound with one of two possible equations. The equations, given in Meylan and Howard (1994a) and Meylan et al. (1996) are:
log S (mol/L) = 0.796 - 0.854 log Kow - 0.00728 MW + ΣCorrections
log S (mol/L) = 0.693 - 0.96 log Kow - 0.0092(Tm-25) - 0.00314 MW + ΣCorrections
(MW - molecular weight, Tm - melting point in deg C, ΣCorrections -Summation of Corrections)
If a measured melting point is available, that second equation is used; otherwise, the first equation is used.
- Defined domain of applicability:
According to the WSKOWWIN documentation, there is currently no universally accepted definition of model domain. However, the documentation does provide information for reliability of the calculations. Estimates will possibly be less accurate for compounds that 1) have a MW, logKow and/or water solubility outside the ranges of the training set compounds. It is also possible that a compound may have a functional group(s) or other structural features not represented in the training set, and for which no fragment coefficient was developed.
- Appropriate measures of goodness-of-fit and robustness and predictivity:
Total Training Set Statistics (MW only): Number of substances in dataset = 1450, Correlation coef (r2) = 0.934, Std. dev. = 0.585, Abs. dev. = 0.313.
Training Set Estimation Error: within ≤ 0.20 - 42.0%, within ≤0.40 - 69.5%, within ≤ 0.50 – 79.1%, within ≤ 0.60 - 86.0%, within ≤ 0.80 - 93.9%, within ≤ 0.90 - 97.4%.
- Mechanistic interpretation: At present, the most practical means of estimating water solubility involves regression-derived correlations using log Kow (Yalkowsky and Banerjee, 1992).
5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
As described above, according to the WSKOWWIN documentation, there is currently no universally accepted definition of model domain. In general, the intended application domain for all models embedded in EPISuite is organic chemicals. Specific compound classes, besides organic chemicals, require additional correction factors. Indicators for the general applicability of the WSKOWWIN model are the molecular weight of the target substance, the logKow, the water solubility and the identified number of individual fragments in comparison to the training set. The training set molecular weights are within the range of 27.03 – 627.62.
The molecular weight range of the 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, di-C8-10- alkyl ester isomers is 390 - 447, which falls within the range of the training set.
For each of the three isomers, an experimental water solubility database match was located. For the C8-C8 and the C10-C10 isomers an exact much was retrieved.

All three isomers are within the MW range of the training set and none exceeds the water solubility range of 4 x 10-7 mg/L to completely soluble. No correction factors were applied and all three isomers are outside of the logKow range (-3.89 to 8.27). This is not considered to impact the reliability of the results, as the calculated values are in line with the experimental data for the individual isomers. For two of the three isomers exact structural matches in the experimental database have been found, with water solubility values close to the QSAR results supporting the suitability of this method.As a result 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, di-C8-10-alkyl esters would not be considered outside the estimation domain.

Based on the experimental difficulties for multi component compounds, the WSKOWWIN calculations are fit for the purpose of identifying a certain water solubility range. In case of the underlying target substance, the calculated water solubility values for the individual isomers are in the same range as the obtained experimental results reported in the literature. Hence, the calculations are adequate for the purpose of classification and labelling and/or risk assessment.
The estimated water solubilities (calculation based on logKow values) were <0.0001 mg/l.

The WSKOWWIN predicted water solubility values are considered valid and fit for purpose.

The water solubility was determined by turbidity inflection. This solubility determination procedure is similar to one of the methods recommended by ASTM.
- Short description of test conditions:
The turbidity inflection method for determining solubility was based on the Tyndall effect. A 19-liter stainless steel reservoir was filled with type I distilled-deionized water. A stock solution was made by adding chemical and mixing for 5 min with a high-speed router-blender. This stock solution was systematically increased in concentration by adding equal increments of chemical and bliending them for 5 min between each chemical addition. Samples were taken after each chemical addition for turbidity and chemical measurements. Triplicate sample tubes containing 30 ml each were placed in a 2-liter ultrasonic cleaning bath for 2 min to promote uniform mixing of the resulting solutions as well as to disperse molecular aggregates as emulsions began to form. Dissolved gases which interfered with turbidity readings were driven from these solutions using sonification. The samples were then placed in a Hach Turbidity Meter, Model No. 2100A for reading Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU). - Type of method:

Description of key information
The experimental value determined by Defoe et al. (1990) is used as key value, as this is the highest reported water solubility for any of the isomers.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Water solubility:
- 0.02 mg/L
- at the temperature of:
- 25 °C
Additional information
Standard experimental tests for this endpoint are intended for single substances and are not appropriate for products consisting of various isomers with individual solubilities. The literature values, together with the calculated values for each isomer are hence considered reliable for an overall assessment of the substance.
Available information in the literature for the single isomers and similar structures:
- Dioctyl phtalate: 0.020 mg/l @25°C (Defoe DL et al, 1990)
- Didecyl phtalate: 0.00022 mg/l @25°C (Ellington JJ, 1999)
- Dinonyl phtalate: 0.00013 mg/l @ 20°C (Letinski DJ et al, 2002)
The water solubility was calculated according to EPI Suite v4.11, Water Solubility Estimate from Log Kow (WSKOWWIN v1.43) and from WATERNT (v1.01 est).
WSKOWWIN (v1.43) predicted water solubilities for the three isomers in the range of 0.00001735 mg/l (C8 -C10), 0.00002921 mg/L (C10 -C10) ,and 0.00045488 mg/L (C8 -C8).
WATERNT (v1.01) predicted water solubilities for the three isomers as 0.000041114 mg/l (8 -10), 0.0000036993 mg/L (10 -10), and 0.00045488 mg/L (8 -8).
