Details on results:

The program KOWWIN (part of EPI Suite) was used for calculating the log Pow of the test item. The calculated value was 10.34.
Therefore according to the guidelines the partition coefficient n-octanol/water of the test item at room temperature was determined by the HPLC method.

The partition coefficient n-octanol/water of the test item was determined according to the HPLC method.

It was found to be:

log Pow > 6.5(*)

log Pow =7.4 (**)

(*) above the highest log Pow value of calibration substances (4,4'-DDT)

(**) via extrapolation

Conclusions:

The partition coefficient n-octanol/water of the test item was determined according to the HPLC method. It was found to be >6.5 (highest standard). The log Pow was estimated via extrapolation to be log Pow=7.4.

Executive summary:

The partition coefficient n-octanol/water of the test item was determined according to OECD Guideline 117 and EU Method A.24 (reference 4.7 -1). Based on the preliminary result obtained from EPI Suite, the log Pow value was determined by using the HPLC Method. The test item, the dead time marker and the calibration substances each were dissolved in methanol and diluted from 0.1 mL to 1 mL with methanol / demineralized water 90:10 % (v/v). All samples were injected as single solutions twice. Retention times tR were measured and averaged and the decimal logarithms of the capacity factors k were calculated. The linear regression parameters of the relationship log Pow = f(log k) were also calculated from the data obtained with the calibration mixture and, therewith, log Pow of the test substance was determined from its measured capacity factor. The mean partition coefficient of the test item was determined to be above logPow = 6.5 (highest standard).The log Pow was estimated via extrapolation to be log Pow=7.4.
