Description of key information

Acute oral toxicity:

Data available for the structurally similar read across chemicals has been reviewed to determine the acute oral toxicity of the test chemical 4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9).The studies are as mentioned below:

1.Acute oral toxicity study was performed in male and female Sprague Dawley rats[Crj: CD (SD) ]

using test material test chemical.Distilled water was used as vehicle.Preliminary test was also done.No mortality was observed at dose 300 mg/kg bw.Animals were examined for clinical signs,histopathology, changes in body weight and organ weights.In clinical signs observation,No abnormal symptoms were observed in any of the control groups.In the 200 mg / kg group, a staggering walking, salivation, lacrimation and the like were observed from about 15 minutes after the administration, but in 2 hours after the administration, there was only a decrease in locomotor activity in one males, and other symptoms It disappeared. On the first day after the administration, contamination of the lower abdomen was observed in 2 females, but no abnormal symptoms were observed in any of the males and females after 2 days from the administration.In the 300 mg / kg group, immediately after administration, prone and breathing slowed, salivation from about 5 to 20 minutes after the administration, staggering walking and the like were observed, but disappeared at 2 hours after administration. Spontaneous exercise reduction and epidermal decline were observed after 2 hours from the administration, and the locomotor activity reduction continued even 6 hours after the administration. On the first day after administration, females showed dirt on the lower abdomen and brown urine, but no abnormal symptoms were observed in any of the males and females after 2 days from the administration.In body weight examination,each group of male and female rats showed almost the same trend as the control group, and no significant difference was observed. In the surviving cases, there was no remarkable change in gross pathological examination.Hence, Thelethal concentration (LD50) valuefor acute oral toxicity test was considered to be >300mg/kg bw,when male and female Sprague Dawley rats were treated with test chemical orally via gavage.The lethal concentration (LD50) value for acute oral toxicity test was considered to be >300mg/kg bw,when male and female Sprague Dawley rats [Crj: CD (SD)]were treated with test chemical orally via gavage.

2.Acute oral toxicity study was performed in male and female Sprague Dawley rats[Crj: CD (SD)]

using test material test chemical.Preliminary test was also done.Dead cases were observed in the group of 500 mg / kg or more when using corn oil as a medium. The death occurred about 6 hours after administration in one each sex of the 2000 mg / kg group. On the other hand, in other cases in the 2000 mg / kg group, sexes in the 1300 and 800 mg / kg group and 1 female in the 500 mg / kg group were one day after administration. Only one male in the 500 mg / kg group was dead on 2 days after administration.There was almost no weight gain on the first day after administration. In death cases, symptoms such as wiggle walking, salivation, rare lacrimation after death, then abdomen, epidermal warming,respiratory depression, cyanosis were observed. At autopsy, it was thought that the cause of death was due to circulatory disorder, as dark reddening of lung was observed in almost all cases. At necropsy, there were many cases of pleural effusion in 800 and 1300 mg / kg group, but in 2000 mg /kg group it was less, but the death time in 2000 mg / kg group was lower than that in other group.Hence,LD50 value was considered to be 526 mg/kg bw(95% confidence limit:385 - 686),when

male and female Sprague Dawley rats[Crj: CD (SD)] were treated with test chemical orally via gavage.

3.Acute oral toxicity study was performed in mouse using test material test chemical.50% mortality was observed at dose 500 mg/kg bw. Hence,LD50 value was considered to be 500 mg/kg bw,when mouse were treated with test chemical orally.

Thus, based on the above summarised studies,4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9) and it’s structurally similar read across substance, it can be concluded that LD50 value is between 300-2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation,4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9) can be classified as “Category IV” for acute oral toxicity.Hence,based on the data available for the structurally similar read across, test chemical 4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9)is likely to be toxic in the dose range of >300-526 mg/kg bw.

Acute inhalation toxicity:

(4-methoxyphenyl)methanamine has very low vapor pressure of 0.2 mm Hg at 50°C, so the potential for the generation of inhalable vapours is very low. Also the normal conditions of use of this substance will not result in aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size, so exposure to humans via the inhalatory route will be highly unlikely and therefore this end point for acute inhalation toxicity by inhalation route is considered for waiver.

Acute dermal toxicity:

The substance 4-methoxyphenyl)methanamine is considered to be corrosive to skin. No acute dermal toxicity studies for the target chemical are available based on the corrosive nature of the test chemical. Based on these considerations, the end point for acute dermal toxicity is considered as waiver.

Executive summary:

Data available for the structurally similar read across chemicals has been reviewed to determine the acute oral toxicity of the test chemical 4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9).The studies are as mentioned below:

1.Acute oral toxicity study was performed in male and female Sprague Dawley rats[Crj: CD (SD) ]

using test material test chemical.Distilled water was used as vehicle.Preliminary test was also done.No mortality was observed at dose 300 mg/kg bw.Animals were examined for clinical signs,histopathology, changes in body weight and organ weights.In clinical signs observation,No abnormal symptoms were observed in any of the control groups.In the 200 mg / kg group, a staggering walking, salivation, lacrimation and the like were observed from about 15 minutes after the administration, but in 2 hours after the administration, there was only a decrease in locomotor activity in one males, and other symptoms It disappeared. On the first day after the administration, contamination of the lower abdomen was observed in 2 females, but no abnormal symptoms were observed in any of the males and females after 2 days from the administration.In the 300 mg / kg group, immediately after administration, prone and breathing slowed, salivation from about 5 to 20 minutes after the administration, staggering walking and the like were observed, but disappeared at 2 hours after administration. Spontaneous exercise reduction and epidermal decline were observed after 2 hours from the administration, and the locomotor activity reduction continued even 6 hours after the administration. On the first day after administration, females showed dirt on the lower abdomen and brown urine, but no abnormal symptoms were observed in any of the males and females after 2 days from the administration.In body weight examination,each group of male and female rats showed almost the same trend as the control group, and no significant difference was observed. In the surviving cases, there was no remarkable change in gross pathological examination.Hence, Thelethal concentration (LD50) valuefor acute oral toxicity testwas considered to be>300mg/kg bw,when male and female Sprague Dawley rats were treated with test chemical orally via gavage.Thelethal concentration (LD50) valuefor acute oral toxicity testwas considered to be>300mg/kg bw,when male and female Sprague Dawley rats [Crj: CD (SD)]were treated with test chemical orally via gavage.

2.Acute oral toxicity study was performed in male and female Sprague Dawley rats[Crj: CD (SD)]

using test material test chemical.Preliminary test was also done.Dead cases were observed in the group of 500 mg / kg or more when using corn oil as a medium. The death occurred about 6 hours after administration in one each sex of the 2000 mg / kg group. On the other hand, in other cases in the 2000 mg / kg group, sexes in the 1300 and 800 mg / kg group and 1 female in the 500 mg / kg group were one day after administration. Only one male in the 500 mg / kg group was dead on 2 days after administration.There was almost no weight gain on the first day after administration. In death cases, symptoms such as wiggle walking, salivation, rare lacrimation after death, then abdomen, epidermal warming,respiratory depression, cyanosis were observed. At autopsy, it was thought that the cause of death was due to circulatory disorder, as dark reddening of lung was observed in almost all cases. At necropsy, there were many cases of pleural effusion in 800 and 1300 mg / kg group, but in 2000 mg /kg group it was less, but the death time in 2000 mg / kg group was lower than that in other group.Hence,LD50 value was considered to be 526 mg/kg bw(95% confidence limit:385 - 686),when

male and female Sprague Dawley rats[Crj: CD (SD)] were treated with test chemical orally via gavage.

3.Acute oral toxicity study was performed in mouse using test material test chemical.50% mortality was observed at dose 500 mg/kg bw. Hence,LD50 value was considered to be 500 mg/kg bw,when mouse were treated with test chemical orally.

Thus, based on the above summarised studies,4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9) and it’s structurally similar read across substance, it can be concluded that LD50 value is between 300-2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation,4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9) can be classified as “Category IV” for acute oral toxicity.Hence,based on the data available for the structurally similar read across, test chemical 4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9)is likely to be toxic in the dose range of >300-526 mg/kg bw.

2.Acute oral toxicity study was performed in male and female Sprague Dawley rats[Crj: CD (SD)]

using test material test chemical.Preliminary test was also done.Dead cases were observed in the group of 500 mg / kg or more when using corn oil as a medium. The death occurred about 6 hours after administration in one each sex of the 2000 mg / kg group. On the other hand, in other cases in the 2000 mg / kg group, sexes in the 1300 and 800 mg / kg group and 1 female in the 500 mg / kg group were one day after administration. Only one male in the 500 mg / kg group was dead on 2 days after administration.There was almost no weight gain on the first day after administration. In death cases, symptoms such as wiggle walking, salivation, rare lacrimation after death, then abdomen, epidermal warming,respiratory depression, cyanosis were observed. At autopsy, it was thought that the cause of death was due to circulatory disorder, as dark reddening of lung was observed in almost all cases. At necropsy, there were many cases of pleural effusion in 800 and 1300 mg / kg group, but in 2000 mg /kg group it was less, but the death time in 2000 mg / kg group was lower than that in other group.Hence,LD50 value was considered to be 526 mg/kg bw(95% confidence limit:385 - 686),when

male and female Sprague Dawley rats[Crj: CD (SD)] were treated with test chemical orally via gavage.

3.Acute oral toxicity study was performed in mouse using test material test chemical.50% mortality was observed at dose 500 mg/kg bw. Hence,LD50 value was considered to be 500 mg/kg bw,when mouse were treated with test chemical orally.

Thus, based on the above summarised studies,4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9) and it’s structurally similar read across substance, it can be concluded that LD50 value is between 300-2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation,4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9) can be classified as “Category IV” for acute oral toxicity.Hence,based on the data available for the structurally similar read across, test chemical 4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9)is likely to be toxic in the dose range of >300-526 mg/kg bw.

Acute inhalation toxicity:

(4-methoxyphenyl)methanamine has very low vapor pressure of 0.2 mm Hg at 50?C, so the potential for the generation of inhalable vapours is very low. Also the normal conditions of use of this substance will not result in aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size, so exposure to humans via the inhalatory route will be highly unlikely and therefore this end point for acute inhalation toxicity by inhalation route is considered for waiver.

Acute dermal toxicity:

The substance 4-methoxyphenyl)methanamine is considered to be corrosive to skin. No acute dermal toxicity studies for the target chemical are available based on the corrosive nature of the test chemical. Based on these considerations, the end point for acute dermal toxicity is considered as waiver.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the above experimental studies on 4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9) and it’s structurally similar read across substances, it can be concluded that LD50 value is between 300-2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation,4-Methoxybenzylamine (2393-23-9) can be classified as “Category IV” for acute oral toxicity. For Acute dermal and inhalation toxicity wavier was added so, not possible to classify.
