Conclusions:
At 25 °C the partition coefficient (n-octanol / water) of the test substance was found to be 4.4.
Executive summary:

The octanol-water partition coefficient (Log Pow) of the test substance was determined using the shake-flask and according to OECD TG 117 following GLP principles. At 25°C the partition coefficient (n-octanol / water) of the test substance was found to be 4.4 at a pH of about 5.3.
