Description of key information
Acute oral toxicity:
Acute oral toxicity dose (LD50) of 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester (CAS no: 52888-49-0) was predicted based on OECD QSAR toolbox 3419 mg/kg bw and different studies available on structurally similar read across substance 2,6-xylidinium chloride (21436-98-6) 2042 mg/kg bw and for the functionally similar read across substance Methyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6) >2000 mg/kg body weight. All these studies concluded that the LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.
Acute Dermal toxicity:
Acute Dermal toxicity dose (LD50) for 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester (CAS no: 52888-49-0) was predicted based on OECD QSAR toolbox 3604 mg/kg bwand differentstudies available for the structurally similar read across substance Methyl N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-N-(methoxyacetyl)-DL-alaninate (57837-19-1) >3100 mg/kg bw and for the functionally similar read across substance Methyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6) >2000 mg/kg body weight. All these studies concluded that the LD50 value is>2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.

Additional information
Acute oral toxicity:
In different studies, 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester (CAS no: 52888-49-0) has been investigated for acute oral toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in-vivo experiments in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rats for 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester along with the study available on structurally similar read across substance 2,6-xylidinium chloride (21436-98-6) and on functionally similar read across substanceMethyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6). The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental studies. The studies are summarized as below –
In a prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the acute oral toxicity was estimated for 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester (CAS no: 52888-49-0). The LD50 was estimated to be 3419 mg/kg bw, when 10 male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester via oral gavage route.
The above study is supported by U.S. National Library of Medicine (ChemIDplus, 2017), for the structurally similar read across substance 2,6-xylidinium chloride (21436-98-6). Acute oral toxicity study was conducted in rats at the concentration of 2042 mg/kg bw. 50% Mortality was observed at dose 2042 mg/kg bw. Hence, LD50 value was considered to be2042 mg/kg bw, when rats were treated with2,6-xylidinium chloride via oral route.
This study is further supported by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB (study no.16160, 2017) was designed and conducted for the functionally similar read across substance Methyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6) in Sprague Dawley rats. Initially, three female animals were treated at the dose level of 300 mg/kg body weight of the test item (Step - I). Administration of the test item at 300 mg/kg did not result in any signs of toxicity and mortality at 24 hours after the dosing. As no mortality was observed at 24 hours after the dosing, three female animals were added to the study and treated with the same dose of 300 mg/kg of the test item (Step - II). Administration of the test item at 300 mg/kg did not result in any signs of toxicity and mortality after the dosing. No mortality was observed at 300 mg/kg dose group, hence additional three female animals were treated with the higher dose of 2000 mg/kg of the test item (Step - I). Administration of the test item at 2000 mg/kg did not result in any signs of toxicity and mortality after the dosing. As no mortality were observed at 24 hours after the dosing, additional three female animals were treated with the higher dose of 2000 mg/kg of the test item (Step - II). Administration of the test item at 2000 mg/kg did not result in any signs of toxicity and mortality after the dosing. Gross pathological examination did not reveal any abnormalities in animals from 300 mg/kg and 2000 mg/kg dose groups. The acute oral LD50 of Methyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6) was >2000 mg/kg body weight. Thus, it was concluded that the acute toxicity study of Methyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6), when administered via oral route in Sprague Dawley rats falls into the “Category Unclassified” criteria of CLP.
Thus, based on the above studies on 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester (CAS no: 52888-49-0) and it’s read across substances, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.
Acute Dermal toxicity:
In different studies, 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester (CAS no: 52888-49-0) has been investigated for acute dermal toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in vivo experiments in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rabbits and rats for 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester along with the study available on the structurally similar read across substance Methyl N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-N-(methoxyacetyl)-DL-alaninate (57837-19-1) and on functionally similar read across substance Methyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6). The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental studies. The studies are summarized as below –
In a prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the acute dermal toxicity was estimated for 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester (CAS no: 52888-49-0). The LD50 was estimated to be 3604 mg/kg bw, when 10 male and female New Zealand White rabbits were treated with 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester for 24 hours by dermal application occlusively.
This study is supported by U.S. National Library of Medicine (ChemIDplus, 2017) and IFA GESTIS (GESTIS SUBSTANCE Database, 2017), for the structurally similar read across substance Methyl N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-N-(methoxyacetyl)-DL-alaninate (57837-19-1). Acute Dermal toxicity study was conducted in rats at the concentration of 3100 mg/kg bw. No Mortality was observed at dose 3100 mg/kg bw. Hence, LD50 value was considered to be >3100 mg/kg bw, when rats were treated withMethyl N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-N-(methoxyacetyl)-DL-alaninate by dermal application to skin.
The above study is further supported by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB (study no.19161, 2017) was designed and conducted for the functionally similar read across substanceMethyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6) in Sprague Dawley rats. The test item was applied to shorn skin of 5 male and 5 female animals at 2000 mg/kg body weight. Administration of the test item at 2000 mg/kg did not result in any skin reaction at the site of application during the study period of 14 days. Administration of the test item did not result in any signs of toxicity and mortality during the study period of 14 days. Animals exhibited normal body weight gain through the study period of 14 days. Gross pathological examination did not reveal any abnormalities attributable to the treatment. It was concluded that the acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of Methyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6), when administered to male and female Sprague Dawley rats was found to be >2000 mg/kg body weight. Thus, according to CLP criteria for acute toxicity rating for the chemicals, it infers that Methyl-N-methyl anthranilite (CAS No. 85-91-6) does not classify as an acute dermal toxicant. CLP Classification: “Unclassified”.
Thus, based on the above studies 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester (CAS no: 52888-49-0) and it’s read across substances, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the above studies and prediction on 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester (CAS no: 52888-49-0) and it’s read across substances, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw for acute oral and dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, 2-(2,6-dimethyl-phenylamino)-propionic acid methyl ester cannot be classified for acute oral and dermal toxicity.
