Information for MCI and Kow approaches (KocWIN 2.0) are given through attached QMRF and QPRF documents.
The derivation of Koc from Kow values as described in the TGD (2003) is reported as a usable valid model by ECHA, which fulfilled all OECD principles:
1.A defined endpoint:
Adsorption coefficient (Koc).
2. An unambiguous algorithm:
19 models have been developed for different chemical classes (see table 4 of the TGD part III).The chemical class “predominantly hydrophobics” is defined as compounds containing only carbon, hydrogen and halogen (F, Cl, Br, I) atoms, “nonhydrophobic chemicals” being all chemicals that cannot be classified as predominantly hydrophobics. Fourteen class-specific QSAR models were produced for all nonhydrophobic classes of chemicals, in order to give more appropriate equations. The test substance is considered non hydrophobics. The corresponding equation is log Koc = 0.52*log Kow + 1.02
3.A defined domain of applicability:
The applicability domain of the sorption models developed by Sabljic and Güsten (1995) depends on the considered chemical class, and is based on logKow range (see table 5 of the TGD part III). The substance is within the validity domain of non hydrophobics.
4.Appropriate measures of goodness-of-fit, robustness and predictivity:
For non hydrophobics: n (number of data) = 390; R² (correlation coefficient) = 0.63; s.e. (standard error of estimate) = 0.56.
5.A mechanistic interpretation, if possible:
No data
Description of key information
The adsorption coefficient (log Koc) was estimated by three QSAR models:
- KOCWIN v2.00 in EPI suite (v4.0) - MCI method using log Kow
- KOCWIN v2.00 in EPI suite (v4.0) - log Kow method
- A model described in Technical Guidance on Risk Assessment (European Chemicals Bureau, 2003) - Part III, Chapter 4, table 4, equation for non hydrophobic substances.
Nerol exhibits a Koc of 143 L/kg (geometric mean of the three QSAR results: 285 L/kg, 94.15 L/kg, 109.7 L/kg).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Koc at 20 °C:
- 143
Additional information
ECHA Guidance (chapter R.7.a,paragraph R.7.1.15) recommends to calculate the Koc endpoint value as the geometric mean of results obtained by means of QSAR models.
This geometric mean value is considered as the endpoint defining the substance potential for adsorption and can be used as input parameter for environmental risk assessment.
