Conclusions:
Partition coefficient (log Pow) = 2.3 at 35°C.
The substance has low potential to bioaccumulate in the environment, according to CLP classification criteria for aquatic chronic toxicity (log Kow < 4).
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient of the test substance was measured under GLP according to Guideline OECD 117/EU A8, HPLC method. The system was calibrated with 6 reference substances, and the result for the sample was interpolated from the linear regression.

Partition coefficient (log Pow) = 2.3 at 35°C.
