Reference
Endpoint:
partition coefficient
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.8 (Partition Coefficient - HPLC Method)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of method:
HPLC method
Partition coefficient type:
octanol-water
Analytical method:
high-performance liquid chromatography
Key result
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
2
Temp.:
25 °C
pH:
6.8
Remarks on result:
other: mean value from 3 single values
Remarks:
Retention time (min): 2.799
Details on results:
In order to ensure a stable performance of the HPLC column, the column temperature was set to 40 °C. The reference Paw-values in the OECD guideline presumably refer to 25 °C. Even though the column temperature was 40 °C, this temperature has no influence on the result of the determination. Therefore the Pow-value of the test item determined within this study also refers to 25 °C.
Conclusions:
The partition coefficient (logPow) of 2.0 was determined at 25 °C and pH 6.8.
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient was determined by the HPLC-method according to OECD TG 117. The partition coefficient (Pow) was determined according to the HPLC method at 40 °C. In order to comply with the guideline OECD 117 and considering environmental relevance, buffered water at pH 6.8 was chosen. The reference Pow-values in the OE CD-guideline presumably refer to 25 °C. Even though the column temperature was 40 °C, this temperature is without influence on the result of the determination. The calibration was done referring to Pow- values of reference substances determined at 25 °C. For the determination of the partition coefficient (Koc) six calibration standards with log Koc from 1.0 -3.0 were established. The partition coefficient (logPow) of 2.0 was determined at 25 °C and pH 6.8. All validity criteria have been met.

Additional information

In order to ensure a stable performance of the HPLC column, the column temperature was set to 40 °C. The reference Paw-values in the OECD guideline presumably refer to 25 °C. Even though the column temperature was 40 °C, this temperature has no influence on the result of the determination. Therefore the Pow -value of the test item determined within this study also refers to 25 °C.
