Individual Results

Preliminary Visual Estimation of the n-octanol solubility

Different amounts of the test item were stirred with different amounts of n-octanol at room temperature and visually checked for any undissolved particles.

According to this preliminary test the solubility of the test item in n-octanol is about 1000 mg/ml (without correction of the purity).

Calculation of the partition coefficient log Pow from the preliminary tests

The partition coefficient P ow may be estimated from the saturation concentrations in n-octanol and water by the following equation:

 

P ow = csoctanol/cswater

 

s= saturation

 

With the data obtained from the experiments in chapter 3.5.3 (cs = 1.38 g/l) and in the preliminary test (water solubility: cs = 27.4 mg/l) the partition coefficient was calculated as log POW 1.7.

Shake Flask method

A stock solution of the test item was prepared in n-octanol (pre-saturated with water):

5.9 mg/100 ml. Three different experiments (double determination) was started with following ratios of octanol/water: A (1:1); B (1:2); C (2:1)!.

After phase separation by centrifugation, the total concentration of the test substance was determined by VIS-spectroscopy (509 nm) at 20°C in each phase.
