Additional information
A study was conducted similar to OECD 107 to determine the partition coefficient of propargyl alcohol. Using the flask method the partition coefficient was determined to be -0.35 at 25°C. Furthermore a literature review was conducted. Schultz, TW and Tichy (Structure-Toxicity Relationships for unsaturated alcohols to Tetrahymena pyriformis: C5 and C6 analogs and Primary Propargylic Alcohols. Bull. Environ. Contam. Toxicol. Vol 51, pp 681 - 688) reported the partition coefficient to be -0,33 and Veith, GD et al. ( The toxicity of acetylenic alcohols to the fathead minnow, Pimephales promelas: narcosis and proelectrophile activation. Xenobiotica Vol 19, pp 555 - 565) reported the partition coefficient to be -0.37.
The study and the literature values reported the partition coefficient to be in the same range.
The value from the BASF study 103758/01 was chosen as key value for the partition coefficient.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
