Conclusions:
The partition coefficient of test substance 2,4,6-trichloroaniline (CAS No. 634-93-5) was determined as per the HPLC method (OECD Guideline-117). The Log Pow value was determined to be 3.648± 0.007at 25°C.This value indicates that the test substance 2,4, 6- trichloroaniline is hydrophilic in nature.
Executive summary:

The partition Coefficient n-octanol/water of 2,4,6-trichloroaniline (CAS No. 634-93-5) was determined by the Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic method according to OECD Guideline No. 117 for Testing of Chemicals. The reference substances were chosen according to structural similarity with the test substance. The reference substances werePhenol, Benzene, 2,3 Dichloroaniline, Bromobenzene, 1,4 Dichlorobenzene, 1,2,4, Trichlorobenzene, 2,6 Diphenylpyridinehaving Pow value ranging from 1.5 to 4.9.The Log Pow value was determined to be 3.648± 0.007at 25°C.

This value indicates that the test substance 2,4, 6- trichloroaniline is hydrophilic in nature.

Additional information

The partition Coefficient n-octanol/water of test chemical 2,4,6-trichloroaniline (CAS No. 634-93-5) was determined by the Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic method according to OECD Guideline No. 117 for Testing of Chemicals. The reference substances were chosen according to structural similarity with the test substance. The reference substances were Phenol, Benzene, 2,3 Dichloroaniline, Bromobenzene, 1,4 Dichlorobenzene, 1,2,4, Trichlorobenzene, 2,6 Diphenylpyridine having Pow value ranging from 1.5 to 4.9.The Log Pow value was determined to be 3.648± 0.007at 25°C.

This value indicates that the test substance 2,4, 6- trichloroaniline is hydrophilic in nature.

 

Above experimental data is supported by various authoritative databases and handbooks in this the octanol water partition coefficient (log Pow) value of the substance 2,4,6-trichloroaniline is determined  to be 3.52 dimensionless.

 

From another authoritative databases the octanol water partition coefficient (log Pow) value of the substance 2,4,6-trichloroaniline is determined  to be 3.69 dimensionless.

 

Thus by considering all octanol water partition coefficient value it can be concluded that the octanol water partition coefficient (log Pow) value of the substance 2,4,6-trichloroaniline is in range of 3.52- 3.69 dimensionless.

On the basis of this range log Pow value it can be concluded that test chemical 2,4,6-trichloroaniline is hydrophilic in nature.
