The capacity factors k and log Pow for CUCURBIT[8]URIL were calculated based on the calibration data obtained with the reference substances.

For the calculation we considered only the biggest peak. According to the information received from the sponsor the two smaller peaks ( RT: 2.7 and 5.9 min) probably belongs to the impurities of the test item. The calculated log Pow: < 1.0.

Conclusions:
The capacity factors k and log Pow for CUCURBIT[8]URIL were calculated based on the calibration data obtained with the reference substances.
For the calculation we considered only the biggest peak. According to the information received from the sponsor the two smaller peaks ( RT: 2.7 and 5.9 min) probably belongs to the impurities of the test item. The calculated log Pow: < 1.0.
Executive summary:

The purpose of this study was to determine the partition coefficient of CUCURBIT[8]URIL. The study was performed to Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 laying down test methods pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), Method A.8. “Partition Coefficient”, Official Journal of the European Union L 142 of 31 May 2008 - Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, Guideline No. 117, “Partition Coefficient (n-octanol/ water), High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method” updated Guideline, adopted 13th April 2004. The capacity factors k and log Pow for CUCURBIT[8]URIL were calculated based on the calibration data obtained with the reference substances. For the calculation only the biggest peak was considered. According to the information received from the sponsor the two smaller peaks ( RT: 2.7 and 5.9 min) probably belongs to the impurities of the test item. The calculated log Pow: < 1.0.
