Conclusions:
A log Pow range of 4.0 - 7.3 was determined for the substance.
The log Pow value for the peak respresenting the constituent was determined to be >6 with an estimated value of 7.3.
Executive summary:

The log Pow of the substance was determined using the HPLC method in a GLP study according to EC A.8, OECD 117 and OPPTS 830.7570. The mobile phase was 75/25 (v/v) methanol/water and the wavelength of detection 210 nm. Duplicate measurements were performed. Both chromatograms of the test substance solution (1 g/L) showed one major peak (79% area) and 12 smaller peaks (0.70-4.4% area). A log Pow range of 4.0 – 7.3 was determined for the substance. The log Pow value for the peak with area of 79%, representing the constituent, was determined to be >6 with an estimated value of 7.3.

Description of key information
