- PERFORMANCE OF THE STUDY
While passing through a column along with the selected mobile phase, the test material interacts with the stationary phase. As a result of partitioning between mobile and stationary phases, the test material is retarded. The dual composition of a cyanopropyl stationary phase, having polar and non-polar sites allows for interaction of polar and non-polar groups of a molecule in a similar way as is the case for organic matter in soil or sewage sludge matrices. This enables the relationship between the retention time on the column and the Koc on organic matter to be established.
According to the guidelines, the determination of the Koc for test materials that are ionised for at least 10 % within pH 5.5 to 7.5 should be performed with both the ionised and non-ionised form. Therefore, the pKa values of the test material were calculated using the Perrin calculation method (pKalc 5.0, module in Pallas 3.0, CompuDrug International San Francisco, CA, USA). Based on the calculations, the HPLC method was performed at pH 7.
Solutions of reference substances with known log Koc values based on soil adsorption data and the test material were analysed. The capacity factor (k') of each compound was calculated from its retention time. The log k’ values of the reference substances were plotted against the known log Koc values. A linear regression program was used to calculate the calibration curve. Linear regression analysis was performed using the least squares method. The coefficient of correlation (r) was calculated. The log Koc value for the test material was calculated by substituting its mean log k’ in the calibration curve. The value of log Koc obtained from duplicate measurements was within ± 0.25 log units.

PREPARATION OF THE SOLUTIONS
- Solution of the unretained compound
A 5000 mg/L stock solution of formamide (99.2 %) in methanol was used. The stock solution was diluted to obtain an end solution of 55/45 (v/v) methanol/ 0.01 M phosphate buffer pH 7.

Stock solutions of the reference substances at concentrations of 1000 mg/L (1108 mg/L for 4,4’-DDT) in methanol were used. The stock solutions were diluted to obtain an end solution of 55/45 (v/v) methanol/ 0.01 M phosphate buffer pH 7.
The blank solution for the mixture of reference substances was 55/45 (v/v) methanol/ 0.01 M phosphate buffer pH 7.
- Test solution
A 1000 mg/L stock solution of the test material was prepared in methanol. In order to dissolve the test material the stock solution was ultrasonicated for 10 minutes. The stock solution was diluted to obtain an end solution of 55/45 (v/v) methanol/0.01 M phosphate buffer pH 7. The final concentration of the test material solution was 10.0 mg/L.
The test material blank solution was 55/45 (v/v) methanol/ 0.01 M phosphate buffer pH 7.

- CALCULATION OF pKa VALUES
The following pKa values in the logarithm range of 1 - 14 for acidic and basic groups in the molecular structure of the test material were calculated using the Perrin calculation method:
Acidic: RC6H4SO2NH2 pKa 9.38
Basic: RARN(R1R2) pKa 5.20
DETERMINATION OF THE Koc
In the chromatogram of the test solution, one test material peak was observed.
The results of the HPLC method show the calibration curve of the log k’ of the reference substances as function of log Koc. The equation of the regression line was: log k’ = 0.304 x log Koc – 0.852 (r = 0.98, n = 16). - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- not applicable
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the Koc of the test material was 1.0 x 10^4 and the logKoc was 4.01.
- Executive summary:
The Koc of the test material was assessed in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 121 and EU Method C.19 under GLP conditions using an HPLC Method.
The pKa values of the test material were calculated and based on the calculations, the HPLC method was performed at pH 7. Solutions of reference substances with known log Koc values based on soil adsorption data and the test material were analysed. The capacity factor (k') of each compound was calculated from its retention time. The log k’ values of the references substances were plotted against the known log Koc values. A linear regression program was used to calculate the calibration curve. Linear regression analysis was performed using the least squares method. The coefficient of correlation (r) was calculated.
