- Executive summary:
The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential acute toxicity of Lithium 4,5-dicyano 2-(trifluomethyl) imidazolate, following a single oral administration (gavage) to rats. This study was conducted in compliance with the OECD Guideline No. 423 and the principles of Good Laboratory Practice. The test item was administered once by oral route (gavage) to three groups of three fasted female Sprague-Dawley rats under a dosage-volume of 10 mL/kg. The test item was prepared in drinking water treated by reverse osmosis. Based on available test item toxicity data, the starting dose-level was 300 mg/kg. In view of mortality observed at 300 mg/kg, the next lower dose-level of 50 mg/kg was tested. Then, as no toxicity was observed at this lower dose-level, the results were confirmed in other females. Each animal was observed at least once a day for mortality and clinical signs for 15 days. Body weight was recorded on Day 1 and then on Days 8 and 15. On completion of the observation period, the animals were sacrificed and then submitted for a macroscopic post-mortem examination. No tissues were preserved.
At 300 mg/kg, all animals died after treatment on Day 1. Abnormal vocalization, lateral recumbency and tonic seizures were observed within 30 minutes after treatment. At 50 mg/kg, no deaths occurred. On Day 1, hypoactivity was noted in all animals. Piloerection, hunched posture and tonic seizure were also observed in a few animals. No clinical signs were noted thereafter. A moderate lower body weight gain was noted in one female treated at 50 mg/kg, when compared to CiToxLAB France historical control data. Under the experimental conditions of this study, the oral LD50 of Lithium 4,5-dicyano 2-(trifluomethyl) imidazolate, was comprised between 50 and 300 mg/kg in rats.

Oral route
The potential acute toxicity of Lithium 4,5-dicyano 2-(trifluomethyl) imidazolate was evaluated following a single oral administration (gavage) to rats. This study was conducted in compliance with the OECD Guideline No. 423 and the principles of Good Laboratory Practice. The test item was administered once by oral route (gavage) to three groups of three fasted female Sprague-Dawley rats under a dosage-volume of 10 mL/kg.

Lithium 4,5-dicyano 2-(trifluomethyl) imidazolate should not be classified for the acute dermal toxicity according to the criteria of CLP Regulation.
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to the criteria of CLP/GHS Regulations, Lithium 4,5-dicyano 2-(trifluomethyl) imidazolate
should be classified category 3 and assigned the signal word "danger" and the hazard statement "H301: Toxic if swallowed".
Lithium 4,5-dicyano 2-(trifluomethyl) imidazolate should not be classified for the acute dermal toxicity according to the criteria of CLP/GHS Regulations.
