The solubility of the test item in 1 -Octanol: 532 ± 5.38

Estimation of the partition coefficient

The partition coefficient of the solute can be estimated with the following formula:

log Pow = log ([solute] 1-octanol/[solute] water)

With the previous results for water solubility of 0.0022 ± 0.0003 g/L and 1 -Octanol solubility, the estimation of the partition coefficient of the test item is:

log Pow = log (532.7 g/L / 0.0022 g/L) = 5.38

Conclusions:
In a study performed according to OECD 107 a log Pow of 5.38 was determined for the test item.
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient of the test item was determined in a study according to OECD guideline 107. For the test item a log Pow of 5.38 was determined.
