Conclusions:
The partition coefficient(n-octanol/water) of test chemical was determined as per the HPLC method (OECD Guideline-117). The Log Pow value was determined to be 3.815 ± 0.020 at 25°C.
Executive summary:

The partition Coefficient n-octanol/water of test chemical was determined by the Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic method according to OECD Guideline No. 117 for testing of Chemicals. The sample of test chemical was prepared by adding 4 μL in acetonitrile to prepare 442.32 mg/L and pH of the resulting solution was 6.7. The reference substances were chosen according to functional similarity with the test substance and calibration graph was prepared. The reference substances were Formamide, Acetophenone, Ethylbenzene, Diphenylamine, Biphenyl, Benzophenone and Butylbenzene having Pow value ranging from 1.3 to 5.0. The Log Pow value was determined to be 3.815 ± 0.020 at 25°C.
