Hydrolysis Rate
pH 5.0 aqueous buffer 2.95 X 10-10 sec-1
pH 7.4 aqueous buffer 4.80 X 10-7 sec-1
pH 9.0 aqueous buffer 1.23 X 10-7 sec-1
Based upon the data, hydrolysis will not be a
primary removal process for bupropion hydrochloride. Detailed information on this test and the methods used are
provided in Attachment II – Tier 0 – Physical Chemical Data report and
Attachment VII – References. (NOT PROVIDED THROUGH FOI ACT)
Dissociation Constant: The pK(unreadable) of bupropion hydrochloride has been determined as 8.35 (±0.02) at
25°C. Detailed information on this test
and the methods used are provided in Attachment II – Tier 0 – Physical Chemical
Data Report and Attachment VII – References. (NOT PROVIDED THROUGH FOI
ACT)
n-Octanol/Water Partition Coefficient: The log Kow
value is less than 2, therefore bupropion hydrochloride is not expected to
significantly bioconcentrate or sorb onto organic particles.
