 Calculation of the Pow

The Powof the test substance was calculated to be 1.9 x 106(logPow6.3) using the Rekker calculation method.

Calculation of pKa

The following pkavalues in the logarithm range of 1 – 14 for acidic and basic groups in the molecular structure of the test substance were calculated using the Perrin calculation method.

Acidic

Basic

RRCHCOOH

 pKa= 3.8

none

5-subst-TETRAZOL

pKa= 4.4

The equation of the regression line at pH 7 was log k’ = 0.527 x log Pow– 0.636 ( r = 0.995, n = 12)

And at pH 2.5: log k’ = 0.507 x log Pow– 0.674 ( r = 0.996, n = 12)

The results of the Rekker calculation method and the HPLC method differ more than 0.3 log units. Since the HPLC method is a more accurate method, the results of this method are:
