Conclusions:
The partition coefficient (n-octanol/water) of test chemical was determined as per the HPLC method (OECD Guideline-117). The Log Pow value was determined to be 6.093±0.005 at 25°C.
Executive summary:

The Partition Coefficient n-octanol/water (Pow) of test chemical was determined by the Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method according to OECD Guideline No. 117 Adopted: 13 April 2004 for testing of chemicals.

The analysis was performed at constant recommended conditions such as temperature 25°C (Acetonitrile: water) ratio 75:25 at the flow rate of 1 mL/min at 210 nm. Generalized reference substances were selected and selected reference substances and test chemical were prepared in acetonitrile. Both were analyzed on HPLC considering the similar conditions.

After analyzing on above conditions calibration curve of selected reference substances was prepared to obtain log Powvalue.

The reference substances were Benzene, Diphenylamine, Naphthalene, Ethyl benzene, Biphenyl, Phenanthrene, Butylbenzene, Triphenylamine and DDT having Powvalue ranging from 2.41 to 6.10.

TheLog Powvalue was determined to be 6.093±0.005 at 25°C , inferring the test chemical to be hydrophobic in nature .
