solubility determination
(OP)
Has anybody experience with the determination of solubility in water, room temperature, of an inorganic salt that rapidly decays in a solution?

RE: solubility determination
Can you do it a couple of times at as low a temperature as possible, and extrapolate the results?
Or add something to stabilise it that's much more soluble than the material under scrutiny?
Tongue in cheek for a lunchtime diversion - look up Isaac Asimov's story, called something like "The endocrinic properties of (some long organic compound name)" in which he described a material that dissolved before it touched the solvent and hence led the way to time travel!! He wrote it during his Doctorate and told the publisher not to publish before his viva in case it prejudiced his degree. Alas the publisher failed to follow his instruction and the interviewer had read the story - but took it in good spirit.

PS: Asimov wrote whatever crossed his mind, the more bizzar, the better.Nice fellow. But sometimes it really happens that a cause comes after the consequence -I can proove it from our sales data that soon after an increase of sales of one of our products(outdoor paints) a period of nice weather follows...

regretfully I do not know anything about thiotimolin.Could you give me a hint?

RE: solubility determination
Your aim is a bit unclear, but could you:
- decompose the dissolved mother liquor and back calculate from this to what was in solution?
- look at yield of product material as a function of NaCl concentration?
- measure the time-changing concentrations and model the system?

Besides, H2O2 is quite versatile and can react by molecular additions, substitutions, oxidations and reductions directly as is or by ionizing or dissociating into free radicals.
More often than not these reactions are quite complex and may be catalyzed or otherwise influenced by the environment.
