Version / remarks:
similar to the preliminary test in OECD 105 water solubility
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The substance has been mixed with 1-octanol saturated with water (using slow-stirring conditions for at least 24 h, Milli-Q water was used) at different ratios in order to determine the octanol solubility. It is assumed that there are no changes in volume when mixing 1-octanol with the test substance.

no

Executive summary:

The octanol solubility of ´N-(Oleyl alkyl)- 1,3-propanediamine mono oleates ´ is determined to be 720 g/L. The aqueous solubility is determined to 0.080 gram/litre mixture (from ANL 18034). Log Pow is calculated as 3.95

Additional information

The substance is a salt of (Z)-N-9-octadecenylpropane-1,3-diamine (Oleyl-diamine, CAS 7173-62-8) and Oleic acid (CAS 112-80-1),which dissociates into its components under aqueous conditions.

It should be noted that also both components of the salt individually have surface active properties, and form micelles rather than clear aqueous solutions. Also, both the structures appear under physiological conditions in a charged form in water solution: oleyl-diamine as cationic structure, and oleic acid as an anionic structure.

For such surface-active structures, the standard test methods for water solubility and octanol/water partitioning are generally not suitable. For the free water solubility in general the CMC (critical micelle concentration as approximation for the maximum concentration where the substance is still in free solution) is provided rather than the amount that can be added while still showing a clear solution. For Pow of such substances, the separate solubility in water and in octanol can be used, where the use of the CMC for water solubility will result to the most conservative result (i.e. the highest Pow value):

CMC = 0.080 g/L (pH 6.5, 20°C, at 1 g/L); octanol solubility = 720 g/L

logPow = log(0.080/720) = 3.95
