The octanol-water partition coefficient of organic compounds is estimated starting from the chemical structure, which is divided into fragments (atom or larger functional groups). Coefficient values of each fragment or group are summed together to yield the log P estimate.

Discussion

The applicability domain (AD) evaluation performed by the VEGA software suggests that C8monoster fits within the AD of ALogP model, whereas the other two components are not fully compliant with it. Based on the molecular weight and the number of fragments identified, all the components fit within the AD of the KOWWIN model.

Similar estimation for the three components are obtained by both models, which also provide moderate to good performance on the similar substances; based on these considerations, the results obtained by ALogP for the C8diester and C8triester, even if not fully compliant with the AD, can be considered as supporting information in the Weight of Evidence approach.

Only the C8monoster component is predicted with non-negligible difference between the two models. The ALogP provides slightly better results on the similar molecules, leading to consider its prediction for the C8monoester as slightly more reliable.

The target substance is also composed by esters of C10 fatty acids, which would be predicted with slightly higher Log Pow values compared to the C8 ones.

Conclusion

Considering the results obtained for the target components and the similar substances, a Log Pow range between 1 and 8 can be considered as a reasonable estimation for the whole substance.
