- Executive summary:
A study was conducted in accordance with OECD 107 and Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.8 to determine the partition coefficient of the test substance using the shake flask method. The partition coefficient POW is defined as the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations of a dissolved test item in the two-phase system consisting of n-octanol and water. The partition coefficient POWis dimensionless and usually given in the form of its logarithm to base ten.The partition coefficient (n-octanol/water) of the test item was determined at room temperature (22°C) to be: log POW= 3.2
Reference
Sample preparation
For the determination of the test item concentration aliquots of the centrifuged aqueous and n-octanol phases were taken and diluted as described below before the HPLC analyses. Sample preparation (aqueous phases): Aliquots of the aqueous phases were diluted from 0.25 ml to 1 ml with acetonitrile. Sample preparation (n-octanol phases): Aliquots of the n-octanol phases were diluted from 0.1 ml to 10 ml and again 0.05 ml to 1 ml with acetonitrile / demineralized water 75:25% (v/v). All samples were injected as single solutions twice.
The concentrations were quantified by comparing integrated peak areas with a calibration (external standard method with the test item). The solutions were determined by HPLC. The integration and calculation of the concentration was automatically carried out using the HPLC System Agilent 1100 series. The standards were prepared by dissolving the test item in acetonitrile and diluting it with acetonitrile / demineralized water 75:25 % (v/v).
Validation of the analytical method
Linearity: The detector linearity was checked (calibration at 6 concentration levels by twofold injection).
Calibration. y=mx, x: Amount (μg/l), y: Area m: 0.547
Correlation coefficient r: 0.99985
Quantification limit for measurement: 4.90 μg/l (lowest calibration standard)
Under consideration of the sample preparation this quantification limit corresponds to a quantification limit of 19.6
μg/l test item in samples of the aqueous phase and 9.8 mg/l test item in samples of the octanol phase (without correction for the purity).

All recovery values are calculated from the measured and unrounded concentration values and not from the rounded values given in the Table. The recovery of the standards indicated a sufficient accuracy of the analytical method
Repeatability:
The repeatability was checked by measuring standard A1 six-fold. The resulting area was used to calculate the standard deviation and the variation coefficient. The accuracy of the analytical method was evaluated as sufficient as the variation coefficient of the areas was < 2%.
Individual results
Preliminary visual estimation of the n-octanol solubility increasing amounts of the test item were stirred with a defined volume of n-octanol at room temperature and visually checked for any undissolved particles.
According to this preliminary test the solubility of the test item in n-octanol was between 81.2 g/l and
92.9 g/l (without correction for the purity).
Calculation of the partition coefficient log POW
The partition coefficient POWmay be estimated from the saturation concentrations in n-octanol and
water by the following equation:
POW=CSn-octanol/CSwater
CS=saturation concentration in g/L
The estimated partition coefficient was calculated with the water solubility data determined (CS=36.0mg/l) and the data obtained according to the preliminary test. lt was calculated to be: log POWca. 3.4. Also the program KOWWIN (part of EPI Suite) was used for calculating the log POWof the test item. The calculated value was 3.31. Therefore according to the guidelines the partition coefficient n-octanol/water of the test item at room temperature was determined by the shake flask method.
Shake flask method
A specified amount (see Table) of the test item was dissolved in 100 ml n-octanol (saturated with demineralized water). 1 0 ml of this solution were added to six different flasks (experiment: 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B). Subsequently different amounts of n-octanol (saturated with demineralized water) and 20 ml demineralized water (saturated with n-octanol) were added to the flasks as described in the table. All mixtures were shaken for several minutes at ambient temperature (22 °C). After separation of the phases each phase was centrifuged (30 minutes at 22 °C and 15000 rpm) and the pH values of the aqueous phases were measured. For analytics the samples were prepared as described as before and subsequently the concentrations of the test item in the different phases were determined by HPLC.
