Water solubility
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- water solubility
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2002
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study without detailed documentation
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 105 (Water Solubility)
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- flask method
- Key result
- Water solubility:
- 3 500 mg/L
- Temp.:
- 20 °C
- pH:
- 4.1
- Remarks on result:
- other: standard deviation: 500 mg/L
- Details on results:
- Because of the expected instability in water (hydrolysis) the solubility was determined at pH 4 (aqueous buffer solution).
- Conclusions:
- Methyl valerate can be considered as highly soluble with a water solubility of 3500 +/- 500 mg/l measured at 20 °C and pH 4.1.
- Executive summary:
The water solubility of methyl valerate in aqueous buffer solution (pH 4.1) obtained after equilibration at 20 °C was determined using the flask method according to the OECD Guideline 105 (Water Solubility). Measurements were made at 20 °C in accordance with the guidance A.6 of the European Community giving a solubility in aqueous buffer solution (pH 4.1) at 20 °C of 3500 mg/L. Therefore methyl valerate can be considered as highly soluble in water.

Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
