Results and discussion

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Stability in organic solvents is not considered critical.
Executive summary:

The substance is a diether of 1,2-ethanediol. Its functional groups indicate no instabilities in common organic solvents. Stability in organic solvents is not considered critical. (Ref. 1)

 

Therefore testing for stability in organic solvents does not need to be performed.
