Conclusions:
The partition coefficient Pow of the test item was determined to be 5.6 at 20 °C. The log Pow was calculated to be 0.74 at 20 °C.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted in accordance with OECD TG 107, Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.8 and OPPTS 830.7550 to determine the partition coefficient of the test substance using the shake flask method. A stock solution of the test substance was prepared in n-octanol pre-saturated with water. Test vessels with octanol/water mixture in different ratios were shaken for 5 minutes by hand. Separation of the two phases was achieved by centrifugation at 20 °C. The samples in the octanol phase and the water phase were diluted and analysed using LC-MS. The partition coefficient of the test item was determined to be 5.6. The log Pow is 0.74.
