Conclusions:
The partition coefficient (n-octanol/water) of test chemical was determined as per the HPLC method (OECD Guideline-117). The Log Pow value was determined to be 4.660±0.011 at 25°C.
Executive summary:

The partition Coefficient n-octanol/water of test chmeical was determined by the Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic method according to OECD Guideline No. 117 for testing of Chemicals. The sample of test chemical was prepared by adding 10 mg in acetonitrile to prepare 1000 mg/L this was sonicated for 2 mins and filtered through 0.22 μm nylon syringe filter.pH of the resulting solution was 7.4. The analysis was performed at constant recommended conditions such as temperature 25°C (solvent: water) ratio 75:25 at the flow rate of 1 mL/min at 210 nm. The reference substances were chosen according to estimated Pow range of the test substance and generalize calibration graph was prepared. Selected reference substances and test chemical were prepared in acetonitrile with concentration of 400 mg/L. Both were analyzed on HPLC considering the similar conditions. After analyzing on above conditions calibration curve of selected reference substances was prepared to obtain log Pow value. The reference substances were Benzene, Naphthalene, Toluene, Ethyl benzene, Biphenyl, DDT having log Pow value ranging from 2.7 to 5.0 The partition coefficient (log Kow) value of test chemical was determined to be 4.660±0.011 at 25°C. Thus, test chemical was considered to be hydrophobic in nature.
