- REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
For detailed information please refer to the 'attached justification' section
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
This read-across is based on the hypothesis that source and target substances have similar biodegradation and ecotoxicological behaviour because the target substance, TA-2, exhibits the same core structure as TA-1 (source substance). TA-2 was investigated for stability in aqueous solutions by implementation of analytical methods via LC-MS/MS and LC-QToF employing ESI ionization. Based on observations resulting from these experiments, a complete hydrolysis of the test item within the mobile phase contact time (less than 1 minute for all experiments) can be assumed. This corresponds to the known reactivity (hydrolytically instability) of the sulfonyl chloride functional group of the target substance. Hydrolysis of 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethane-1-sulfonyl chloride (TA-2) results in its breakdown product 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethane-1-sulfonic acid which is also considered to be the main constituent in aqueous solutions of the source substance 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethane-1-sulfonic acid- potassium (TA-1) . Studies to determine biodegradation and aquatic ecotoxicity are conducted in water, thus, these studies use the hydrolysis product 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethane-1-sulfonic acid as active ingredient. Testing of TA-2 in aqueous solutions is therefore assumed to reveal the same results as compared to TA-1.
2. SOURCE AND TARGET CHEMICAL(S)
The target substance, 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl) ethane-1-sulfonyl chloride contains Phthalimid as core structure linked to an ethansulfonyl chloride group. Furthermore, the target substance is hydrolytically not stable and is experimentally shown to rapidly degrade to 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethane-1-sulfonic acid (source substance) and chloride.
The source substance 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethane-1-sulfonic acid--potassium is a water soluble substance for which was shown to be stable in aqueous solutions (study according to OECD guideline 201). It consists of the same core structure as the target substance (Phthalimid with sulfonic acid as functional group). TA-1 as a solid contains potassium as counter ion but when used in aqueous solutions is considered to be present as free sulfonic acid form.
3. ANALOGUE APPROACH JUSTIFICATION
The read-across hypothesis is based on the assumption that 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl) ethane-1-sulfonyl chloride hydrolyses fast to 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethane-1-sulfonic acid. The source substance 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethane-1-sulfonic acid--potassium (TA-1) is considered to be present in the free sulfonic acid form when dissolved in aqueous solutions, thus, the tests on biodegradation and ecotoxicity are performed with the same compound regardless whether TA-1 or TA-2 is used. Furthermore, available physico-chemical data reveal similar properties for both substances supporting the read-across strategy.

- Conclusions:
- In this study, 2H-isoindole-2-ethanesulfonic acid, 1,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-, potassium salt (1:1) (TA-1) did not inhibit the growth of the freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata after 72 h. The EC50-values tor inhibition of growth rate (ErC50) and yield (EyC50) after 72 h were > 186 mg/L (all values based on geometric mean measured test item concentration). The NOEC-values for inhibition of growth rate and yield after 72 h were ≥ 186 mg/L, respectively.
The target substance 2 -(1,3 -dioxo-1,3 -dihydro-2H-isoindol-2 -yl)ethane-1 -sulfonyl chloride (TA-2) is hydrolytically not stable and is experimentally shown to rapidly degrade to 2 -(1,3-dioxo-1,3 -dihydro-2H-isoindol-2 -yl)ethane-1 -sulfonic acid and chloride. The source substance 2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethane-1-sulfonic acid--potassium (TA-1) is present in the free sulfonic acid form when dissolved in aqueous solutions, thus, the tests on biodegradation and ecotoxicity are performed with the same compound regardless whether TA-1 or TA-2 is used. Therefore, the results for the source substance apply likewise to the target substance.

Description of key information
For 2 -(1,3 -dioxo-1,3 -dihydro-2H-isoindol-2 -yl)ethane-1 -sulfonyl chloride (TA-2) no experimental study on toxicity to aquatic algae and cyanobacteria is available.
The target substance 2 -(1,3 -dioxo-1,3 -dihydro-2H-isoindol-2 -yl)ethane-1 -sulfonyl chloride (TA-2) is hydrolytically not stable and is experimentally shown to rapidly degrade to 2 -(1,3 -dioxo-1,3 -dihydro-2H-isoindol-2 -yl)ethane-1 -sulfonic acid and chloride. The source substance 2 -(1,3 -dioxo-1,3 -dihydro-2H-isoindol-2 -yl)ethane-1 -sulfonic acid--potassium (TA-1) is present in the free sulfonic acid form when dissolved in aqueous solutions, thus, the tests on biodegradation and ecotoxicity are performed with the same compound regardless whether TA-1 or TA-2 is used. Therefore, the results for the source substance apply likewise to the target substance.
In a 72h-toxicity study to aquatic algae according to OECD guideline 201 (2011) with Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata at a nominal concentration of 250 mg/l (geometric mean measured concentration186 mg/L) 2 -(1,3 -dioxo-1,3 -dihydro-2H-isoindol-2 -yl)ethane-1 -sulfonic acid--potassium (TA-1) showed no toxicty (NOEC and EC50 based on algal growth were > 186 mg/L based on geo. mean measured concentrations).
