Remarks:

Meets generally accepted scientific standards, well documented, and acceptable for assessment. There is uncertainty in extrapolating water solubility from the 100 % WAF and 99 % WSF. The water solubility based on the measured WAF/WSF over-estimates the actual solubility of the named substance and includes contributions from more water soluble impurities. When water solubility values are small, as is the case for this substance, the relative quantities of impurities present in the water are high compared to the named substance, and it is probable that the reported solubility value is not due entirely to the named substance. Currently, there is no analytical method available that is capable of quantifying the entire organotin compound with its associated ligand(s). The use of organotin compounds as PVC stabilizers and in other commercial applications dictate that the chemical properties of low water solubility and labile ligands make the ester compounds the preferred chemistry for commercial needs.

Principles of method if other than guideline:

An estimate of the water solubility of MMT(2-EHTG) was obtained from the freshly prepared 100% Water-accommodated (WAF) or 99% Water-soluble fraction (WSF) used to conduct the GLP ecotoxicity studies. The WAF and WSF were prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L. The 100% WAF and 99% WSF were analyzed on the basis of total tin and were converted to and reported as the test substance, MMT(2-EHTG). The preparation of the WSF/WAF allowed both the solubilized portion of the test substance, the hydrolysis products, and trace impurities to be present in the medium used to conduct the ecotoxicity studies.

For the chronic D. magna study, the average concentration of the 100% WAF was 0.37 mg/L as Sn [2.3 mg/L as MMT(2-EHTG)]
For the S. subspicatus study, the geometric mean concentration of the 99% WSF was 0.29 mg/L as Sn [1.8 mg/L as MMT(2-EHTG)]

Reliability:

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

significant methodological deficiencies

Remarks:

A reassessment of the method and results, and further testing, have concluded that these data are not valid.

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

OECD Guideline 105 (Water Solubility)

GLP compliance:

yes

Remarks on result:

other: The test item was concluded to hydrolyse fully within 30 minutes of contact with water; thus, it was decided that the water solubility test was not feasible.

Details on results:

After shaking, excess test item could be observed as clear droplets on the bottom of the flask. After standing for approximately 5 minutes, the smaller droplets appeared to have become slightly opaque, whereas the supernatant solution appeared to be slightly hazy. After standing for 1 hour, the opacity of the excess test item had increased, whereas the turbidity of the supernatant solution remaining constant. After standing overnight, the
excess test item consisted of white, opaque globules, whereas the supernatant solution had cleared. After standing for approximately 48 hours, very little change was noticed in the opacity of the excess test item; the supernatant solution also remained clear and colourless. The test item was concluded to hydrolyse fully within 10 minutes of contact with water; thus, it was decided that the water solubility test was not feasible.

Analyses by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) were employed to examine degradation of the parent test substance in water. A standard solution of the test substance was prepared in water-free organic solvent, and spectral data were compared against that for a sample prepared in water/organic. Spectral peaks present in the standard solution, which were attributed to the presence of the parent test substance, were shown to be reduced or absent from spectra for the test substance prepared in water. This , along with visual observation of white precipitate formation, provided basis for concluding instability of the substance in water.

Conclusions:

The test item was concluded to hydrolyse fully within 10 minutes of contact with water; thus, it was decided that the water solubility test was not feasible.

Executive summary:

No determination was possible according to Method 105 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995, due to the following reason: The test item was concluded to hydrolyse fully within 10 minutes of contact with water; thus, it was decided that the water solubility test was not feasible.
