Discussion

The result from the preliminary test indicated that the HPLC method was suitable for determination of partition coefficient for this test item.

Although the test item was shown to rapidly hydrolysis in water, it was found that in a mobile phase containing 30% water the test item was stable enough for the period of its retention.

Due to the standards and sample being detected using different detectors, a correction in the retention time was required because detection of an analyte in the two detectors doesn’t occur simultaneously. Therefore, the difference in retention time of the sample between the two detectors (0.052 minutes) was subtracted from the MS retention time of the sample. There wasn’t a peak at 240 nm for the sample at the concentration used. MS detection was used for the sample to confirm a degradation product wasn’t being measured due to the test item being hydrolytically unstable. UV detection of the test item would not have been definitive.

Conclusion

The partition coefficient of the test item has been determined to be 530, log10 Pow 2.72.
