Description of key information
Skin irritation:
Based on the available data for the structurally similar read across substances and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded that the target chemical will also tend to behave in a similar that of the read across substances. Therefore, Reaction mass of Methanaminium, N-[4-[[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]phenylmethylene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ylidene]-N-methyl- & acetate was estimated to be not irritating to skin and it can be further classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation.
Eye Irritation:
Based on the available data for the structurally similar read across substances and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded that the target chemical will also tend to behave in a similar that of the read across substances. Therefore, Reaction mass of Methanaminium, N-[4-[[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]phenylmethylene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ylidene]-N-methyl- & acetate was estimated to be irritating to eyes and it can be further classified under the category “Category 1” as per CLP regulation.

- Executive summary:
Based on the available studies for the structurally similar read across chemicals, weight of evidence approach was applied to assess the dermal irritation potential of Reaction mass of Methanaminium, N-[4-[[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]phenylmethylene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ylidene]-N-methyl- & acetate.
A study was designed and conducted to determine the dermal reaction profile of the structurally similar read across chemical in Sprague Dawley rats. The study was performed as per OECD Guidelines 402 and complying to the GLP procedures. Ten rats (5 male and 5 female) were used for conducting dermal irritation /corrosion study.
The animals were kept in their cages for at least 5 days prior to administration for acclimatization to the laboratory condition and after acclimatization period, animals were randomly selected. Approximately 24 hours before application, the hair of each rat was closely clipped from the trunk (dorsal surface and sides from scapular to pelvic area) with an electric clipper, so as to expose at least 10% of the body surface area. The test item was applied directly onto the exposed skin of the animal, taking care to spread the test item evenly over the entire area of approximately 10% of the total body surface area or as much of the area as can reasonably be covered. The test item was held in contact with the skin using a porous gauze dressing and non irritating tape around the animal to cover the exposure site for first 24 hours exposure period. Elizabethan collar was placed on each animal for first 24 hours after application of the test item. These collars prevent ingestion of test item. Following 24 hours of exposure, the wrapping was removed and the test site wiped free of excess test item. Distilled water was used to remove residual test item.
The test item was applied to shorn skin of 5 male and 5 female animals at 2000 mg/kg body weight. Administration of the test item at 2000 mg/kg did not result in any skin reaction at the site of application during the study period of 14 days. Also, the erythema and edema score of rats was calculated as 0. Administration of the test item did not result in any signs of toxicity and mortality during the study period of 14 days. Animals exhibited normal body weight gain through the study period of 14 days. Gross pathological examination did not reveal any abnormalities attributable to the treatment.
Hence, it was concluded that the test chemical was Non-Irritating to the skin of Sprague Dawley rats under the experimental conditions tested and classified as “Category- Not Classified” as per CLP Classification.
This is supported by the results of a skin irritation study was carried out on rats to assess the irritation potency of other structurally similar read across chemical.20% suspension of test chemical was applied to the skin of Wistar rats and observed for signs of irritation (duration not mentioned).
No visible erythema or edema was observed on the skin of Wistar rats when exposed to 20% test chemical.
Hence, test chemical can be considered not irritating to skin.
Based on the available data for the structurally similar read across substances and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded that the target chemical will also tend to behave in a similar that of the read across substances. Therefore, Reaction mass of Methanaminium, N-[4-[[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]phenylmethylene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ylidene]-N-methyl- & acetate was estimated to be not irritating to skin and it can be further classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation.

- Executive summary:
Based on the available studies for the structurally similar read across chemicals, weight of evidence approach was applied to assess the ocular irritation potential of Reaction mass of Methanaminium, N-[4-[[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]phenylmethylene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ylidene]-N-methyl- & acetate
The ocular irritation potential of the structurally similar was assessed in rabbits according to Fed. Reg. 38, No. 187, § 1500.42, 1973 (Draize test) Guidelines. 100 mg of the undiluted test chemical was instilled into one eye of the 6 albino rabbits. The untreated eye served as control. The animals were exposed to the test chemical for 24 hours, and the treated eyes remained unwashed throughout the study. Rabbits were observed for signs of irritation 1 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after instillation of the test chemical. The ocular reactions at 24 and 72 hours were scored according to method of Draize.
Conjunctivae score was not assessed due to staining of the test chemical. The effects observed in the rabbit eyes were not reversible even after 72 hours. The mean scores for corneal opacity, iris and chemosis after 24, 72 hours of observation were 3.3, 1.9, 3.2 respectively.
Based on the scores, the test chemical can be considered to be irritating to rabbit eyes.
The above result is supported by the experimental study performed for other structurally similar read across chemical. 1% test chemical was instilled in conjunctival sac of 2 rabbits thrice in a day. The histopathological appearance of normal conjunctiva obtained from control rabbit was compared with the treated eyes. Both the rabbits developed conjunctival congestion and discharge next day. After 3 days of instillation there was some necrosis of the conjunctiva. Conjunctival biopsies obtained from affected rabbits showed variable thinning of epithelial lining with total loss of goblet cells and subepithelial capillary congestion with neutrophilic infiltration.
In experimental studies on rabbits, the test chemical caused gross destruction of goblet cells and thinning of the conjunctival epithelium.
Hence, the test chemical can be considered to be a severe eye irritant.
These studies are supported by the results of Draize test performed to determine the degree of ocular damage caused by another structurally similar chemical. Undiluted test chemical was instilled in the eyes of 1 rabbit and observed for signs of irritation till 7 days. The reactions observed were scored according to Draize method. Mean scores are calculated for each animal from gradings at 24, 48, and 72 h after instillation of the test chemical and these “severity scores” are then used to determine the classification of the test chemical.
The study was terminated after day 1 since color staining of the cornea was observed.
Based on these observations, the test chemical was considered to highly irritating and causing irreversible damage to rabbit eyes, was classified under the category “Category 1”.
Based on the available data for the structurally similar read across substances and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded that the target chemical will also tend to behave in a similar that of the read across substances. Therefore, Reaction mass of Methanaminium, N-[4-[[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]phenylmethylene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ylidene]-N-methyl- & acetate was estimated to be irritating to eyes and it can be further classified under the category “Category 1” as per CLP regulation.

Justification for classification or non-classification
The results of the experimental studies from the structurally similar read across substances indicate a possibility that Reaction mass of Methanaminium, N-[4-[[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]phenylmethylene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ylidene]-N-methyl- & acetate can be not irritating to skin and irritating to eyes.
Hence by applying the weight of evidence approach, Reaction mass of Methanaminium, N-[4-[[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]phenylmethylene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ylidene]-N-methyl- & acetate can be considered to be not irritating to skin and severely irritating to eyes. It can be classified under the category “Not Classified” for skin irritation and “Category 2” for eye irritation as per CLP regulation.
