- other: no information available whether the calculation model is validated for the substance under investigation
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The n-octanol/water partition coefficient log Kow of imidazolium compounds, 2-(C17 and C17-unsatd. alkyl)-1-[2-(C18 and C18-unsatd. amido)ethyl]-4,5-dihydro-1-methyl, Me sulfates was calculated using EPIWIN v3.20, KOWWIN v1.67.

- other: calculation
- Partition coefficient type:
- octanol-water
- Key result
- Type:
- log Pow
- Partition coefficient:

- Conclusions:
- The n-octanol/water partition coefficient log Kow of imidazolium compounds, 2-(C17 and C17-unsatd. alkyl)-1-[2-(C18 and C18-unsatd. amido)ethyl]-4,5-dihydro-1-methyl, Me sulfates was calculated using EPIWIN v3.20, KOWWIN v1.67. The calculation yielded a n-octanol/water partition coefficient log Kow=12.94 at 25°C. Due to missing information about the applicability of the calculation model in respect to the substance under investigation the result should be treated with care.

A n-octanol/water partition coefficient log Kow=12.94 at 25°C was calculated using EPIWIN v3.20, KOWWIN v1.67. Due to missing information about the applicability of the calculation model in respect to the substance under investigation the result should be treated with care.
Description of key information
The log Kow of Oleic-acid based IQAC, DMS quaternised was calculated from experimentally derived solubility in water whereas the total solubility in n-octanol was not experimentally approved. Instead an arbitrarily value of >2000 mg/l for the solubility in n-octanol was choosen and thus an log Kow of > 5.7 was calculated.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Log Kow (Log Pow):
- 5.7
- at the temperature of:
- 22 °C
Additional information
The log Kow of Oleic-acid based IQAC, DMS quaternised was calculated from experimentally derived solubility in water whereas the total solubility in n-octanol was not experimentally approved. Instead an arbitrarily value of >2000 mg/l for the solubility in n-octanol was choosen and thus an log Kow of > 5.7 was calculated.
According to the experience of the registrand, it is questionable whether a logKow can be experimentally determined at all for this substance having properties as self emulsifying, high affinity to charged surfaces and timely delay in reaching equilibrium from solutes.
A calculated log Kow by EPIWIN should not be used for the assessment, because Oleic-acid based IQAC, DMS quaternised is ionic. EPIWIN does not take into account the ionic structure of the substance.
According to a logKow deduced from the BCF value of 10.7 (see 4.3), the log Kow should be lower than 5.7. However correlation between log Kow and BCF is not linear for substances with high molecular weight. The database for the correlation between BCF and logKow doesn't contain sufficient substances containing quaternary structures. Therefore the lower limit of the n-octanol/water-partition coefficient (log Know = 5.7) was used for the assessment as a conservative approach.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
