Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Reference
Endpoint:
partition coefficient
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2009
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 117 (Partition Coefficient (n-octanol / water), HPLC Method)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.8 (Partition Coefficient)
Deviations:
no
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The reference logPow-values in the OECD-guideline presumably refer to 25 °C. The column temperature was 40 °C. However, the influence of this temperature difference on the calculated logPow value lies within the range of the error of the method.




GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
HPLC method
Partition coefficient type:
octanol-water
Analytical method:
high-performance liquid chromatography
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
1.6
Temp.:
40 °C
pH:
6.2
Details on results:
The log Pow value of - 0.4 was calculated with the software KOWWIN v1.66 assuming the nonionic form. KOWWIN is owned by the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency.
Conclusions:
The partition coefficient (log Pow) of the test item is 1.6 (100 area % of the test item) at 40 °C estimated by the HPLC method.
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient (log Pow) of the test item is 1.6 (100 area % of the test item) at 40 °C estimated by the HPLC method according to OECD guideline 117 (Currenta, 2009).

Description of key information

The partition coefficient (log Pow) of the substance is 1.6 (100 area % of the test item) estimated by HPLC method according to OECD guideline 117 (Currenta, 2009).

Additional information

The HPLC method enables partition coefficients to be estimated in the log Pow range between 0 and 6. This method, however, is not applicable to strong acids and bases, metal complexes, substances which react with the eluent, or surface-active agents. Measurements should be made on ionisable substances in their non-ionized from (free acid or free base), using only an appropriate buffer with a pH below the pK for a free acid or above the pK for a free base. The pKa value is 14.02 ±0.10 (calculated with the software ACD/pKa v 7.0 at a simplified structure of the test item). Therefore the undissociated form (protonated form) exists at a pH value < 13.
