Details on results:
Preliminary Test
The preliminary estimate of the water solubility at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C was 0.104 g/L. The solution had a pH of 5.7.

Validation
The linearity of the detector response with respect to concentration was assessed over the nominal concentration range of 10 to 100 mg/L. The results were satisfactory with a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.998 being obtained.
Assessment of the sample recovery procedure was performed and proved adequate for the test; at a nominal concentration of 102 mg/L, a mean percentage recovery of 92.3% was obtained (range 91.6 to 92.8%). Test sample concentrations have been corrected for the recovery of analysis.

Discussion
On completion of the equilibration period, the samples were clear and colorless with excess test item present. After filtration the solutions were visually observed to be clear, pale yellow solutions with a faint Tyndall beam effect. The intensity of the yellow color of the excess test item may be the reason the solutions appeared colorless prior to filtration.
All individual water solubility results were within ± 15% of the mean, thus satisfying the criteria specified in the guidelines.

Definitive Test

The concentration (g/L) of test item in the sample solutions is shown in the following table:

Sample Number Time Shaken at
30 ºC (hours)
Concentration (g/L) Solution pH
1 72 9.22 x 10^-2 5.9
2 48 9.15 x 10^-2 5.7
3 24 9.07 x 10^-2 5.7

Mean concentration: 9.15 x 10-2 g/L at 20.0 ± 0.5 ºC

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The water solubility of the test item has been determined to be 9.15 x 10-2 g/L of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C.
Executive summary:

Water Solubility. 9.15 x 10-2 g/L of solution at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C, using the flask method, designed to be compatible with Method A.6 Water Solubility of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 105 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.
