Results and discussion

Preliminary study:
At pH 4, pH 7 and pH9, the test item concentration decreased ≥ 10% within 5 days. According to the guideline, the higher Tier test was required to determine the half-life time of the test item.

A small response was observed in the blank buffer solutions at pH 4. The estimated values were calculated using the mean response factor of the lowest calibration solution and were significantly lower than the analysed samples. It was, therefore, considered not to have impact on the study results.
The mean recoveries of the buffer solutions at t=0 fell within the criterion range of 70-110% for non-labelled chemicals. It demonstrated that the analytical method was adequate to support the hydrolysis study on the test item.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The preliminary test (Tier 1) and main study (Tier 2) were performed for the determination of the rate of hydrolysis of JNJ-7820254-AAA (Fluorobenzene) at pH values normally found in the environment (pH 4-9). Plotting the mean logarithms of the relative concentrations between 10% and 90% in Tier 2 against time, non-linear relationships were obtained for all pH’s. Accordingly, the decrease of test item concentration was not caused by a pseudo-first order reaction. At the beginning of the test, the test item concentration decreased faster than at later time points of the study.  Adsorption and higher-order reactions were ruled out as reasons for the observed test item decrease. The decline was considered to be due to volatilization of the test item. As volatilization obviously dominated the results of Tier 2 testing, it was technically not possible to determine the half life time of the test item.

yes
Conclusions:
The preliminary test (Tier 1) and main study (Tier 2) were performed for the determination of the rate of hydrolysis of JNJ-7820254-AAA (Fluorobenzene) at pH values normally found in the environment (pH 4-9). The decrease of the test item concentration was not caused by a pseudo-first order reaction. The decline was considered to be due to volatilization of the test item.
As the test item did not show pseudo-first order behaviour, Tier 2 testing was discontinued before six sampling times covered the hydrolysis range of 10% to 90%. It was technically not possible to determine the half life time of the test item due to the test item being volatile. The results of the test can be considered reliable without restriction.
