Abstract
Abstract 1-Octanol–water partition coefficients (Kow) of s-triazines and some of their degradation products were determined using two reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods. In the first method, an octadecyl column was coated with 1-octanol and eluted with 1-octanol–saturated water. Using this method, a maximum log Kow of 2.86 could be determined. For higher values a recently developed gradient HPLC method was used. The determined 1-octanol–water partition coefficients are helpful for studies and mathematical models dealing with the fate of s-triazine herbicides and their degradation products in the environment.
