Recoveries obtained for diluted solutions stored and filtered under the same operating conditions as the test sample, were between 89 and 103%. Therefore the method was found to be accurate and the test item stable in each solvent under the testing conditions used. The chromatographic profiles were also examined and no significant change was detected in the size or number of peaks observed.

Description of key information

Soluble and stable in 8 different solvents (acetone, ethyl acetate, methanol, acetonitrile, dichloromethane, n-heptane, toluene, n-octanol. For exact data see Additional information.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The solubility of the test item was determined with flask method according to EPA OPPTS 830.7840.
