1)The mixtures were treated in an ultrasonic bath.
The solubility of the test item in water at room temperature was estimated to be < 9.9 mg/L. Therefore, the column elution method was performed.
Main Test:
The mean value and its standard deviation from five consecutive samples taken from the saturation plateau, each measured twice, were calculated for each run. The mean concentrations calculated on two tests using different flows were compared and the repeatability was calculated, which should be better than 30 %. The measured concentrations which are shown in the following tables are rounded values. The calculation was performed with not rounded values.

The third column showed no test item in the water or any signals in the HPLC chromatograms.
The mean measured concentration in water was determined to be 23.12 mg/L (RSD = 3.44%; the calculation was carried out with the original not rounded values).
To verify the accuracy of the analytical method freshly prepared standard solutions (prepared with the test item) were measured in between the samples of the column elution method. The results of these measurements are shown in Table 7. The recovery rates should lie between 90 and 110 %.

The recovery rate of the measured standard solutions was in the range from 94.5 % to 101.8 %, which shows a good accuracy of the analytical method.
Following the measurements, the amount of the test item in the columns was checked. For this purpose, columns 1 and 2 were each purged with 50 mL acetone. 0.5 mL of the acetone solutions were diluted to 100 mL with acetone and measured by HPLC.
These measurements showed that 75.02 mg of the test item was found in column 1 after the main test, which corresponds to 59.9 % of the starting amount. 44.32 mg of the test item could be found in column 2 after the main test, which corresponds to 35.42 % of the starting amount. In both columns enough test item was found after the main tests to ensure correct performance of the test.
The water solubility was determined to be 85.44 mg/L.
Description of key information
The water solubility of the test substance was determined using the column elution method according to OECD Guideline 105 and EU Method A.6 (Schiewer, 2019).
Water solubility was also predicted using the WSKOWWIN v1.42 model of EPIWIN v4.1. The experimental melting point of 100.7°C was entered for this prediction. The water solubility was determined to be 85.44 mg/L. The prediction falls within the applicability domain of this model.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Water solubility:
- 23.12 mg/L
- at the temperature of:
- 20 °C
Additional information
The column elution method results were retained as key data.
