Is it true that if a vitamin does not dissolve in water within 15 minutes the body cannot derive any benefits?

Vitamin tablets

True and not true. For example, there are vitamins that are dissolve only in fat, not water - for them, this test is irrelevant, right? Also, in reality vitamin tablets deal not with water but with gastric acid and enzymes. How they help the vitamin being utilized by the body is hard to tell. Finally, there are liquid forms of vitamins or buffered water-soluble tablets that you drink like soda.
