Results and discussion

Preliminary study:
During the 5-day preliminary test no degradation occurred at 50°C, therefore the compound is considered hydrolytically stable with a alf-life of greater than one year (OECD, 1981)

Key result
Remarks on result:
hydrolytically stable based on preliminary test
Remarks:
Due to very little degradation after incubation for six months at pH 4, 7 and 9 no half-life canbe calculated.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
14C-Butralin is considered hydrolytically stable.
Executive summary:

After a six-month period at 25°C in the dark, less than 10% hydrolysis was observed at each pH tested. Of the initial concentrations, mean percentages of 101%, 91.8% and 94.2% parent compound remained at pH 4, 7 and 9, respectively. 14C-Butralin is considered hydrolytically stable.
