- IUPAC Name:
- Reaction products of N-Methylbenzothiazol-2-one and Tetrachloromethane formed during UV irradiation of the mixture
- Details on test material:
- The following substances were used in the experiments:
Mixture of tetrachloromethane and N-Methylbenzothiazol-2-one was exposted to UV light for 0, 1, 2.5, 4, 5.5, 7.5 h. The resulting mixture of several photodegradation products of both substances was used in the tests. This mixture contained N-Methylbenzothiazol-2-one and its photodegradation products formed in tetrachloromethane including 2-Chlorobenzothiazole.
Pure 2-Chlorobenzothiazole was not tested

- laboratory study
- Substrate type:
- other: in buffer solution
- Limit test:
- no
- Post exposure observation period:

Test conditions
- pH:
- 7.2
- Moisture:
- measurement of photosynthetic electron transport in dispersed isolated spinach chloroplasts of N-Methylbenzothiazol-2-one dissolved and irradiated in tetrachloromethane, and of the resulting products
- Details on test conditions:
- measurement of photosynthetic electron transport of substance dissolved and irradiated in tetrachloromethane. These artificial conditions are the onyl reason of 2-chlorobenzothiazole formation. In non-artifical systems, the likelyhood of 2-chlorobenzothiazole formation is extremely low due to missing of the reactive chlorine donor tetrachloromethane

- other: Irradiation with ultrasound
- Details on results:
- Only due to the presence of CCl4 the formation of 2-chlorobenzothiazole from N-Methylbenzothiazol-2-one (MBTO) is possible. The test system is not suited to attribute effects to specific substances. The test system also not suited to represent conditions in natural systems e.g. in vivo or in the environment
Any other information on results incl. tables
N-Methylbenzothiazol-2-one exhibited a slight inhibitory effect on the photosynthetic electron transport in spinach chloroplasts (IC50 = 0.8108 - 1.0627 g/L for pure substance before irradiation). After irradiation, the inhibitory effect was more pronounced (see above). The effect cannot be attributed to a single substance.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- no
- Remarks:
- in regard to 2-chlorobenzothiazole
- Conclusions:
- Due to in vitro test conditions, during photolysis of a mixture of N-Methylbenzothiazol-2-one (MBTO) and tetrachloromethane several irradiation products were formed including inter alii 2-chlorobenzothiazole. As these tests conditions do not represent the natural system, the results have no meaning for the assessment of the environmental properties of 2-chlorobenzothiazole. Due to the design of the study, the observed inhibitory effects of the irradiated mixture cannot be attributed to individual compounds.
- Executive summary:
study invalid in regard to 2 -chlorobenzothiazole
