Octanol-water partition coefficients (log Kow) are widely used in pharmaceutical and environmental chemistry to assess the lipophilicity of compounds. Traditionally log Kow is determined using a shake-flask method that uses...

The relative partition coefficients of krypton and xenon, and the regional blood flow in 27 superficial malignant tumour nodules in 22 patients with diagnosed tumours were measured using the 85mKr- and 133Xe-clearance method. In order to minimize the effect of biological variables on the measurements the radionuclides were injected simultaneously into the tumour. The distribution of the radiotracers was assumed to be in equilibrium at the beginning of the experiment. The blood perfusion was calculated by fitting a two-exponential function to the measuring points. The mean value of the perfusion rate calculated from the xenon results was 13 ± 10 ml/(100 g-min) [range 3 to 38 ml/(100 g-min)] and from the krypton results 19 ± 11 ml/(100 g-min) [range 5 to 45 ml/(100 g-min)]. These values were obtained, if the partition coefficients are equal to one. The equations obtained by using compartmental analysis were used for the calculation of the relative partition coefficient of krypton and xenon. The partition coefficient of krypton was found to be slightly smaller than that of xenon, which may be due to its smaller molecular weight.

The distribution kinetics of 35 2-furylethylene derivatives in two-phase system 1-octanol-water was investigated. The transport rate parameters in direction water-1-octanol (l1) and backwards (l2) are partition coefficient P = l1/l2 dependent according to equations l1 = logP - log(βP + 1) + const., l2 = -log(βP + 1) + const., const. = -5.600, β = 0.261. Importance of this finding for assesment of distribution of compounds under investigation in biosystems and also the suitability of the presented method for determination of partition coefficients are discussed.

AbstractToday more and more data are freely available. Based on these big datasets deep neural networks (DNNs) rapidly gain relevance in computational chemistry. Here, we explore the potential of DNNs to predict chemical properties from chemical structures. We have selected the octanol-water partition coefficient (log P) as an example, which plays an essential role in environmental chemistry and toxicology but also in chemical analysis. The predictive performance of the developed DNN is good with an rmse of 0.47 log units in the test dataset and an rmse of 0.33 for an external dataset from the SAMPL6 challenge. To this end, we trained the DNN using data augmentation considering all potential tautomeric forms of the chemicals. We further demonstrate how DNN models can help in the curation of the log P dataset by identifying potential errors, and address limitations of the dataset itself.

The apparent 1-octanol/water partition coefficient (log PApp) of pentachlorophenol (PCP) varies in non-linear function with pH of the aqueous solution. In the range of pH 1.2 to 13.5 extreme values of log PApp 4.84 at pH 1.2 and log PApp 1.3 at pH 10.5 were observed. In the alkaline regime, log PApp increases strongly with the ionic strength. The ion-corrected partition coefficient of PCP was found to be log P 5.05 in good agreement with literature values.

The partition coefficients (logP) between n-octanol and water of 47 purified and characterized hydrolysable tannins were measured with the shake flask method utilizing UPLC and HPLC with UV detection. Results show that galloyl glucoses and gallotannins are clearly more hydrophobic than ellagitannins but the differences in hydrophobicity within ellagitannins are more varied than within galloyl glucoses or gallotannins. Most notable structural features that were found to influence the hydrophobicity of ellagitannins were the number of free galloyl groups, acyclic versus cyclic polyol, substitution of the anomeric position of glucose and 4C1 versus 1C4 conformation of the glucopyranose core.

The partitioning behaviour of dye-labeled dextrans of high molecular weight in aqueous suspensions of native cellulose nanocrystals was studied. Cellulose concentrations lie in the isotropic–nematic coexistence region. Blue dextrans of various molecular weights and degrees of substitution of dye molecules (anionic Cibacron blue 3G-A) were investigated. Increasing the total concentration of blue dextran and degree of dye substitution led to increasing partition coefficients. Increasing dextran molecular weight resulted in higher partition coefficients, in agreement with theory. Partition coefficients were larger than predicted theoretically using a second virial coefficient approximation. Electrostatic and entropic contributions to the partition coefficient of blue dextran are discussed. Dextrans labeled with neutral fluorescein isothiocyanate did not partition preferentially in this system.Key words: partition coefficient, cellulose nanocrystals, dextrans, degree of substitution, polyelectrolyte.
