Preliminary visual estimation of the n-octanol solubility

A defined amount of the test item was stirred with n-octanol at room temperature and visually checked for any undissolved parts.

According to this preliminary test the solubility of the test item in n-octanol was below <1.4 g/L (without correction for the purity).

Calculation of the partition coefficient log POW rom the preliminary test

The partition coefficient POWmay be estimated from the saturation concentrations in n-octanol and water. The estimated partition coefficient was calculated with the water solubility data determined in project PS20170188 (cS ≥ 374 g/L) and the data obtained above. It was calculated to be: log POW -2.4.

Due to the calculations the partition coefficient was estimated based on the ratio of the solubilities in water and octanol. The octanol solubility was determined using the flask method.The shake flask method and the HPLC method were not applicable due to the low log POW.


Determination of the solubility in n-octanol: Flask method

The individual saturation solubility of the test item in n-octanol was performed within this study. After that, the partition coefficient was estimated based on the ratio of the test item solubility in n-octanol and water. The flask method was performed as described above. The data for the evaluation are given in Table4. The n-octanol solubility was calculated from the measured and unrounded concentration values and not from the rounded values given in Table4.

The n-octanol solubility of the test item at 20 °C was determined to be<0.0004mg/L.

Calculation of the partition coefficient log POWfrom the individual solubilities

In theproject PS20170188-4the water solubility of the test item at 20 °C was determined to be ≥ 374 g/L. Within this project the n-octanol solubility of the test item at 20 °C was determined to be< 0.4 mg/L.

The partition coefficient POW of the test item was determined to be:  log Pow < -6.0

Executive summary:

The partition coefficient (n-octanol/water) of the test item was estimated based on the ratio of the individual solubilities of the test item in water and n-octanol. The solubilities were determined according to the flask method.The shake flask method and the HPLC method were not applicable due to the low log POW.

It was found to be:

 

log POW <  -6.0
