Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Category 4 based on CLP criteria
Conclusions:
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine in rat was observed to be 729 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

The study was conducted to evaluate the acute toxic effects of administration of 2-chloro-p-pheynelenediamine (CAS No. 615-66-7) in rats by the oral route. The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of 2-chloro-p-phenylenediamine in rat was observed to be 729 mg/kg bw. Thus, according to CLP criteria for acute toxicity rating for the chemicals, it infers that 2-chloro-p-phenyl enediamine (CAS No. 615-66-7) can be classify under category 4 compound at the tested dose levels.
