The ionization constant (pKa) and the octanol-water partition
coefficient (log P) of the important mycotoxin cyclopiazonic
acid (CPA) were determined by means of potentiometric titration,
and the lipophilicity profile (log D) was calculated. Under the
experimental conditions, pKa of CPA = 2.97 +/- 0.09, log P =
3.83 +/- 0.10, and log D at pH 7.4 = -0.58.
