Conclusions:
The main metabolite of Cyclacet's analogue Cyclabute was determined in a ready biodegradability test using HPLC (OECD TG 117), covering 82% of the peaks is the Cycla-alcohol (Cas no. 3385-61-3). Its Log Kow is 2.4. The minor metabolite was the Cycla-ketone (Cas no 14888-58-5), covering 18% of the peak area, which has a ketone group attached to the fused backbone and a log Kow of 3.3.
Executive summary:

In addition to the log Kow of Cyclacet, the log Kow of its key metabolite Cycla-alcohol (Cas no 3385 -61-3) is measured in an HPLC test (OECD TG 117). The log Kow of this alcohol is measured after the biodegradation of Cyclabute, an analogue of Cyclacet. Cyclabute has the same hydrocarbon backbone as Cyclacet but has an isobutyl group instead of an acetic group attached to the ester. The alcohol is the main metabolite after Cyclabute's biodegradation and covers 82% of the peaks. The minor metabolite was the Cycla-ketone with a ketone group attached to the fused backbone instead of an alcohol. The isobutyl group was not seen.
