No experimental data on bioaccumulation in terrestrial organisms are available. Due to the low lipophilicity as expressed by a Log Kow < 2 such fast urinary excretion is assumed that slow elimination by exhalation in air-respiring species will be overcompensated (Gobas et al. 2009, p 634). Nonetheless Koa is the second relevant figure in the context of terrestrial bioconcentration in terrestrial food chains and is therefore derived below.
n-Octanol/Air Partition Coefficient (Koa)
As Kow is by definition (concentration of solute in n-octanol)/(concentration of solute in water), the n-octanol-air partition coefficient Koa = (concentration of solute in n-octanol)/(concentration of solute in air) can be directly derived when Kow and Kaw are known (White 2009, equation 3, p 7):
Koa = Kow/Kaw
As Kow was determined to be 7.2 (Brekelmans 2010) and the Kaw is derived in the chapter on Henry's Law constant to be 7.487, the n-octanol/air partition coefficient is calculated to:
Koa = 7.2 / (7.487 · 10^-6) = 961'666
The calculation based on measured n-octanol/water partition coefficient, vapour pressure and water solubility resulted thus in (rounded):
Koa = 1.0 · 10^6, Log Koa = 6.0
This value indicates according to Gobas et al. (2009, p 634) slow elimination by exhalation as Log Koa is > 5.
Conclusion
In result absence of capacity to biomagnify in terrestrial food webs is concluded irrespective of slow elimination by exhalation assumed because of the Log Koa of > 5. Fast urinary excretion due to low lipophilicity and additionally the rapid and ready biodegradability, which suggest a high rate of metabolic transformation, is expected to prevent any terrestrial bioaccumulation.
