Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results and discussion

Partition coefficient
Key result
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
2.6
Temp.:
35 °C
pH:
7
Details on results:
The temperature of the refraction index detector during the study was 35°C. This value is incorrectly indicated as 25°C in the study plan.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
In the conditions of the test, the chromatograms of 2-methyl-3-(p-tolyl)propionaldehyde show one peak at a retention time of: 3.755 minutes, corresponding to a partition coefficient (log value) of
2.6.
Therefore:
The partition coefficient n-octanol/water of 2-methyl-3-(p-tolyl)propionaldehyde:
log Pow= 2.6

N.B.: The determination was performed at 35°C (temperature of the column), but the value obtained above can be considered to represent the value at an unspecified, probably ambient temperature since no mention is made in the guidelines of the temperature at which the tabulated reference substances log Pow values were determined. Partition coefficients of the test and reference substances are assumed to vary with temperature in the same way.
Executive summary:

The Partition Coefficient n-octanol/water of Jasmorange at pH 7.0 was determined by the Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic Method according to the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, Method No. 117.
The result is:
Partition coefficient n-octanol/water of 2-methyl-3-(p-tolyl)propionaldehyde:
log Pow= 2.6
