Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The octanol/water log Pow is 1.69.
Executive summary:

Ratios of n-octanol/water of 1:1, 2:1, and 1:2 were tested.  0.2071 grams of the test substance was added to 100 mL of distilled water pre-saturated with n-octanol with those ratios.  The solutions were shaken for 5 minutes, and then allowed to equilibrate for 3 hours at a temperature of 20 degrees C.  The test was run in duplicate.  The octanol/water log Pow is 1.69 +/- 0.02.
