Details on results:
The Pow of the test item was calculated to be 2.8 (log Pow 0.5) using the Rekker calculation method.

No pKa value for acidic groups in the molecular structure of the test item in the logarithm range of 1 - 14 were calculated. The pKa values in the logarithm range of 1 - 14 for basic groups in the molecular structure of the test item were calculated to be 11.2 using the Perrin calculation method.

Flask method test:
- Analyzed nominal quantity of test item: 0.242 mg (pH 7 test) and 0.210 (pH 13 test).
- Detailed results and recoveries are shown in the illustration.
- log Pow values were within +/- 0.3 log units.
- Pow and log Pow are given as the mean value of all measurements.
- No test item was detected in the pretreated samples from the blank mixture. The pH of the blank samples was both pH 7.0.
Conclusions:
The n-octanol - water partition coefficient of the substance at 20°C was determined to be 0.011 (log Pow = -2.0) using the shake flask method (at both pH 7 and pH 13).
Executive summary:

The n-octanol - water partition coefficient of 4-(cyclohexylamino)butane-1-sulfonic acid was determined according to OECD guideline 107 and GLP principles using the flask method. Based on the Rekker calculation method, the Pow was determined to be 2.8 (log Pow 0.5). The Perrin calculation method was used to calculate pKa values in the logarithm range of 1 -14 for basic molecular groups of the test item (pKa of 11.2). Based on these calculations, the flask method was used for the determination of Pow and log Pow at both pH 7 and pH 13. A validated analytical method was used (UPLC-MS/MS) for quantitative analysis. Results showed a Pow of 0.011 (log Pow -2.0) at 20°C and both pH 7 and pH 13.
