Description of key information
Skin Irritation:
The dermal irritation potential of Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with logPow as the primary descriptor.
Ethylbenzenesulphonic aci) was estimated to be not irritating to the skin of New Zealand White rabbits.
Based on the estimated result; Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid can be considered not irritating to skin and can be classified under the category “Not classified” as per CLP regulation.
Eye Irritation:
The ocular irritation potential of Ethylbenzenesulphonic acidwas estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with logPow as the primary descriptor.
Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid was estimated to be not irritating to the eyes of New Zealand White rabbits.
Based on the estimated results, Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid can be considered not irritating to eyes and can be classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation.

Additional information
Skin Irritation:
In different studies, Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid has been investigated for potential for dermal irritation to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments along with predicted data for target chemical and its structurally and functionally similar read across substances, Sodium benzene sulfonate[CAS: 515-42-4] and Sodium cumenesulphonate[CAS: 28348-53-0]. The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data.
In a prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the skin irritation potential was estimated forEthylbenzenesulphonic acid. It was estimated that Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid was not irritating to skin of New Zealand White rabbits.
This result is supported by the experimental performed by Chin H. Tay et.al [International Journal of Toxicology, January 2004 vol. 23 no. 1 pp.11-16] for thestructurally and functionally similar read across substance, Sodium benzene sulfonate[CAS: 515-42-4]. The study was performed according to EPA OPPTS 870.2500, “Acute Dermal Irritation” Guidelines. Four doses were applied: 5000 mg/L, 2000 mg/L, 1000 mg/L, and 500 mg/l to 6 male and 6 female rabbits per dose group. The pH of the 1000 mg/L dosage was 7.01 and 6.98 prior to dosing and after the 4-hour exposure, respectively. For the 5000 mg/L dosage, the pH was 7.00 and 7.02 prior to dosing and after the 4-hour exposure, respectively.
Each dose of test compound (0.5 ml of each concentration for each dose cohort) was applied to a small area of skin (approximately 6cm2) and covered with four layers of gauze patch held in place with nonirritating tape. Since the compound was in liquid form, it was applied to the gauze before application to the skin. The patch was loosely held in contact with the skin using a semi-occlusive dressing for the exposure period of 4 hours.
At the end of the 4-hour exposure period, the patches were removed and the skin wiped to remove any test substance still remaining. Animals were observed for signs of erythema and edema at 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours after patch removal. Observations of erythema or edema were scored according to the Draize Scale for Scoring Skin Reactions (USEPA 1998). This scale assesses irritation as follows: 0, no erythema or edema; 1, very slight erythema and/or edema (barely perceptible); 2, well-defined erythema and/or slight edema; 3, moderate to severe erythema or moderate edema, and 4, severe erythema and/or edema. Animals were weighed before exposure and at the end of the exposure period (day 3) and observed daily for the incidence of any clinical signs of toxicity (other than erythema and edema). Control skin showed no signs of irritation.
At a dose of 5000 mg/L, very slight erythema (Draize Score 1) was observed in all three test animals 1 hour after removal of the gauze containing the benzene sulfonate solution.
At the 24-hour observation point, very slight irritation (Draize Score 1) was observed in one of the three test animals. At the 48- and 72-hour observation points, the irritation was reversed, and no irritation was observed in any of the animals. Edema was not observed at any time. Control skin showed no signs of irritation. At 2000 mg/L, very slight erythema (Draize Score 1) was observed in two of the three test animals 1 hour after removal of the benzene sulfonate solution. The irritation was reversed by 24 hours. No erythema was observed in any test animals at this dosage at 24, 48 or 72 hours.
Since the effects at all dose levels were fully reversible within 72 hours, Sodium Benzene sulfonate can be considered not irritating to rabbit skin.
These results are supported by the experimental study summarized in International Journal of Toxicology; Vol 30, Issue 6_suppl, pp. 270S - 283S; 2011; for the structurally and functionally similar read across substance, Sodium cumenesulphonate[CAS: 28348-53-0]. The test was performed in accordance with OECD 404 Guidelines. 0.5g of 60% solution of Sodium cumenesulphonate was applied to the skin of rabbits and effects were observed till 4 hours.
No signs of irritation were observed in the rabbits when exposed to 60% solution of sodium cumenesulphonate for 4 hours.
Hence, Sodium cumenesulphonate was not irritating to rabbit skin.
Based on the available data for the target as well as it read across substances;and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded thatEthylbenzenesulphonic acid was not irritating to skin.Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation,Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.
Eye Irritation:
In different studies, Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid has been investigated for potential for ocular irritation to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments along with predicted data for target chemical and its structurally and functionally similar read across substances, 2-(Ethylamino)toluene-4-sulphonic acid [CAS: 98-40-8] and Sodium cumenesulphonate[CAS: 28348-53-0]. The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data.
In a prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the ocular irritation potential was estimated forEthylbenzenesulphonic acid. It was estimated thatEthylbenzenesulphonic acidwas not irritating to eyes of New Zealand White rabbits.
This is supported by the experimental study summarized in International Journal of Toxicology; Vol 30, Issue 6_suppl, pp. 270S - 283S; 2011; for the structurally and functionally similar read across substance, Sodium cumenesulphonate[CAS: 28348-53-0]. The test was performed in accordance with OECD 405 Guidelines.
Undiluted Sodium cumenesulphonate instilled in to the rabbit eyes and effects were observed (dose and duration not specified)
Sodium cumenesulphonate was not irritating to rabbit eyes.
The above results are supported by the experimental study summarized in Chemosphere, Vol. 28, No. 12, pp. 2203.2236, 1994;for the structurally and functionally similar read across substance, 2-(Ethylamino)toluene-4-sulphonic acid[CAS: 98-40-8].2-(Ethylamino)toluene-4-sulphonic acid was observed to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.
Based on the available data for the target as well as it read across substances;and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded thatEthylbenzenesulphonic acid was not irritating to eyes.Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation,Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Available data for Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid indicates that it is not likely to cause any irritation or corrosion to skin and eyes.
Hence, Ethylbenzenesulphonic acid can be classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation.
