- Column: Waters HSS Cyano 5μm (150 x 4.6 mm id)
- Column temperature: 30 ºC
- Flow: 1.0 mL/min
- Injection volume: 10 µL
- UV detection: 210 nm

MOBILE PHASE
- Type: methanol: water (55:45 v/v)

- pH: 6.2
- Solutes for dissolving reference substances were prepared in methanol

DETERMINATION OF DEAD TIME
Method: determined by measuring the retention time of formamide (purity 99.94%, 678 solution in mobile phase).

REFERENCE SUBSTANCES
- Solutions of reference items were prepared in methanol.
- Identity: Acetanilide, Atrazine, Isoproturon, Triadimenol, Linuron, Naphthalene, Endosulfan-diol, Fenthion, α-Endosulfan, Phenanthrene, Diclofop-methyl and DDT

PREPARATION OF TEST SOLUTIONS
- Test item (0.5007 g) was diluted to 100 mL with acetonitrile to give a concentration of 5.01 x 103 mg/L.
- The sample solution matrix blank was acetonitrile

REPETITIONS
- Number of determinations: 2 (for reference substances, test solutions and blank solution)

EVALUATION
- Calculation of capacity factors k': k'= (tr-t0)/t0 where tr = retention time, t0 = mean column dead time
- Determination of the log Koc value: via linear regression; log k' = 0.3059 x log Koc - 0.6283 (r = 0.944)
Key result
Type:
log Koc
Value:
>= 1.58 - <= 4.25 dimensionless
pH:
6.2
Temp.:
30 °C
Key result
Sample No.:
#4
Type:
log Koc
Value:
3.32 dimensionless
pH:
6.2
Temp.:
30 °C
Remarks on result:
other: main constituent (84%)
Details on results (HPLC method):
In the absence of any relevant dissociating functional groups, no specific manipulation of the mobile phase pH was necessary to achieve an unionized form of the test item. Therefore the determination was performed at an unadjusted, approximately neutral pH.

- Retention times of reference substances used for calibration: see table enclosed
- Details of fitted regression line (log k' vs. log Koc): y = 0.3059 x -0.6283 (r2=0.944, n=12)
- Graph of regression line attached
- The chromatogram of the test substance showed 7 substance peaks.
- Average retention data for test substance: see table below
- The value of log10 Koc obtained from duplicate measurements was within ± 0.01 log units.

The retention times of the dead time and the retention times, capacity factors (k') and log10 Kocvalues for the reference standards are shown in the following table:

Conclusions:
Based on the HPLC estimation method at pH = 6.2 using soil-adsorption reference data, the log Koc for Intreleven aldehyde was determined to be in the range of 38.3 to 1.77 x 10^4, log10 Koc 1.58 to 4.25. The main constituent detected, contributing 84% of the total area by percentage area normalization, represented a log10 Koc value of 3.32.
Executive summary:

The HPLC estimation method based on soil-adsorption reference data was used for the determination of the adsorption coefficient (Koc) of the substance. The study was performed in accordance with EC C.19 and OECD 121 and in compliance with GLP. The mobile phase was 55/45 (v/v) methanol/water and the wavelength of detection 210 nm. The stationary phase contained a cyanopropyl reverse phase HPLC column containing lipophilic and polar moieties. Formamide was used as unretained substance. The column temperature was 30°C and the pH of the mobile phase was 6.2. Duplicate injections of reference substances and test substance were applied. The chromatogram of the test substance showed seven test substance peaks. The log Koc value of the substance was determined to range between 1.58 and 4.25. The main constituent detected, contributing 84% of the total area by percentage area normalization, represented a log Koc value of 3.32 (Koc= 2089.3).
