Details on results:
For each reference substance, the capacity factor k was calculated from the retention time of thiourea and the retention time of the respective reference substance. A calibration function (log k versus log POW, linear fit) was determined using the literature values for POW of the reference substances and the retention times in the six determinations.
The test substance showed 10 peaks with retention times between 3.12 and 30.09 minutes. Four of this 10 peaks show a relative area <5 %, they are considered as minor peaks and are not taken in the account in the determination of log POW of the test substance.
Variations of the retention times of reference substances are very small. Therefore, a stable configuration of the HPLC-column can be assumed.
The correlation log k/log POW is good: the coefficient of determination r2 was calculated with 0.9913.

With the calibration function log k versus log POW, the corresponding log POW values of the major peaks of the test substance were determined:

Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, the log Pow of the test substance lies in the range of 2.8 – 4.9.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine partition coefficient according to OECD Guideline 117 and EU Method A.8 (HPLC method), in compliance with GLP. The study was performed using a HPLC with a C18 column. Seven reference substances with different retention times and thiourea for the determination of the dead time were used for the calibration curve. Under the study conditions, the log Pow of the test substance lies in the range of 2.8 – 4.9 (Feierabend, 2018).
