Conclusions:
3-phenylpropionyl chloride estimated to be sensitizing when applied to human and guinea pig skin.
Executive summary:

Using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with logPow as the primary descriptor 3-phenylpropionyl chloride (CAS NO. 645-45-4) was estimated to be not sensitizng to the skin of mouse.

Based on the estimated results, 3-phenylpropionyl chloride (CAS NO. 645-45-4) can be considered not

sensitizing to skin and can be classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation.

Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
Additional information:

In different studies, 3-phenylpropionyl chloride (CAS NO. 645-45-4) has been investigated for potential of skin sensitization to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in guinea pig for target chemical 3-phenylpropionyl chloride (CAS NO. 645-45-4) and its structurally similar read across substancesBenzyl acetate(CAS NO.140-11-4). The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data of read across.   The skin sensitization potential of 3-phenylpropionyl chloride (CAS NO. 645-45-4) was estimated by SSS (QSAR) using OECD QSAR toolbox v3.3 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the fiveclosest read across substances. Benzyl acetate (CAS NO. 140-11-4) was predicted to be non sensitizing to the skin of female guinea pig.   Supported by another estimated study Using Battery algorithm model of Danish QSAR, 3-phenylpropionyl chlorideestimated to be not sensitizing when applied to human and guinea pig skin.   It is further supported by experimental study conducted byD. McGinty , D. Vitale, C.S. Letizia, A.M. Api(Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2012) to evaluate the skin sensitizing potential of read acrossbenzyl acetate(140-11-4) inguinea pig.A guinea pig maximization test according to the Magnusson and Kligman was conducted in 20 Hartley albino guinea pigs. In the induction phase of the study, test animals received two intradermal injections each of 0.1 mL of 50% Freund’s complete adjuvant (FCA) in distilled water; 10% benzyl acetate in saline; and 10% benzyl acetate in FCA, for a total of six injections. On day 7 or 8, 0.8 mL of 30% benzyl acetate in petrolatum was applied to the test animals for 48 h using a double Webril patch. Control animals received intradermal injections of 50% FCA in distilled water, undiluted saline or 50% saline in FCA followed by dermal application of 0.8 mL of petrolatum. On day 19 or 21, a challenge concentration of 1%, 3% or 10% of benzyl acetate in petrolatum was applied for 24 h. The control group received 10% benzyl acetate in petrolatum. The application sites were evaluated at 24 and 48 h after patch removal. There was no incidence of sensitization at any concentration of benzyl acetate. Thus on the basis of negative skin reaction it can be concluded that thebenzyl acetateis not a skin sensitizer.

Thus based on the above predictions on 3-phenylpropionyl chloride (CAS NO. 645-45-4) as well as its read across and applying weight of evidence, it can be concluded that 3-phenylpropionyl chloride (CAS NO. 645-45-4) is not a skin sensitizer. Thus comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, 3-phenylpropionyl chloride (CAS NO. 645-45-4) can be considered as not classified for skin sensitization.
