MAIN TEST
The phases of the shake-flask-method were measured twice by means of HPLC. To verify the accuracy of the analytical method two fresh prepared standard solutions for both phases (prepared with the test item) were measured in between the samples of the shake-flask-method.

PRELIMINARY TEST
The preliminary test at room temperature showed, that the octanol solubility of the test item was <0.1808 g/l. With the determined solubility in water of 15.94 g/l and 1-octanol from these preliminary tests, the partition coefficient log Pow can be estimated to be approx.-1.9.

Conclusions:

Executive summary:

The partition coefficient of test item was determined by shake-flask method following the procedures outlined into the OECD guideline 107. The experiments were carried out applying volume ratios and quantities of the test substance depending on expected partition and the LOQ of the analytical method in both phases. Three parallel tests were carried out at all solvent ratios.

The logarithm of partition coefficient (logPow) of test item in n-octanol-water was determined to be -0.2 ± 0.3 at 25 °C and pH 5.4 - 5.9

Conclusion

log Pow: -0.2 ± 0.3 at 25 °C and pH 5.4 - 5.9
