Description of key information

Skin irritation:

The dermal irritation potential of 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with logPow as the primary descriptor. The chemical 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) was estimated to be irritating to the skin of New Zealand White rabbits. Based on the estimated result 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) can be considered to be irritating to skin and can be classified under the category “Category 1”as per CLP regulation.

 

Eye irritation:

The ocular irritation potential of 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with logPow as the primary descriptor. The chemical 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) was estimated to be not irritating into the eyes of New Zealand White rabbits. Based on the estimated result 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) can be considered to be not irritating to eye and can be classified under the category ˋ Not Classified’ as per CLP regulation.

Additional information

Skin irritation:

Various studieshas been investigated for the test chemical5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2)to observe the potential for dermal irritation to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in rabbits for target chemical5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) and its structurally similar read across substances2-Phenylpropene (CAS No: 98-83-9)andBenzoyl chloride (CAS No: 98-88-4).The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data which are summarized as below;

 

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 for test chemical5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2). The test substance 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) is estimated to be irritating to skin of New Zealand White Rabbits.

 

The MAK Collection for Occupational Health and Safety {The MAK Collection for Occupational Health and Safety, 138–140, 2012} conducted a skin irritation study of read across substance 2-Phenylpropene(CAS No:- 98-83-9) in rabbits. In this test, undiluted test chemical was applied to the shaved skin of rabbits under a bandage for 2 to 4 weeks (10 to 20 applications). The rabbits showed moderate to severe irritation and slight necrosis was also observed. Hence, the test chemical 2-Phenylpropene (CAS No: 98-83-9) was considered to be irritating to the shaved skin of rabbits.

 

The above results were further supported by the dermal irritation study reported by the American Chemistry Council Benzoates Panel {Robust summary and test plans: benzoyl chloride; The American Chemistry Council Benzoates Panel; 2003} for read across substance Benzoyl chloride (CAS No: 98-88-4). The test was performed according to Draize method. The hair was clipped from the backs of 3 male and 3 female New Zealand White rabbits; the skin of 3 animals was abraded.0.5 ml of Benzoyl chloride was applied to clipped back skin and the wrapped with a gauze bandage. Four hours later the bandage was removed and the area washed with tepid water. The test sites were observed and scored immediately after patch removal and at 24, 72 hours. The Primary Irritation Index of benzoyl chloride after 24 and 72 hours was 3.8 Based on the scores, Benzoyl chloride can be considered to be irritating to rabbit skin.

 

 

Thus based on the available data for the target substance 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) and its structurally similar read across substances2-Phenylpropene (CAS No: 98-83-9)andBenzoyl chloride (CAS No: 98-88-4),it can be concluded thatchemical 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) is able to cause severe skin irritation and considered as irritating. Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “Category 1”.

 

Eye irritation:

In different studies,test chemical5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2)has been investigated for potential for ocular irritation to a greater or lesser extentThe studies are based on in vivo experiments in rabbits for target chemical5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2)and its structurally similar read across substancesSodium benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1) and Methyl benzoylformate (CAS No: 15206-55-0).The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data which are summarized as below;

 

In a prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the eye irritation potential was estimated for test chemical5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2).The chemical 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) is estimated to be not irritating to eye of New Zealand White rabbits.

 

The IFA (GESTIS) {GESTIS - Substance Database (Information system on hazardous substances of the Berufsgenossenschaften), 2017} carried out an ocular irritation study of read across substance Sodium benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1) in humans. The chemical Sodium benzoate was instilled into human eyes and effects were observed (dose and duration not specified). Under the conditions of the study, sodium benzoate was not irritating to human eyes.

 

Another eye irritation study of same read across substance Sodium benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1) was conducted in rabbits according to Directive 84/449/EEC by OECD SIDS {SIDS Initial Assessment Report for 13th SIAM - Benzoates, 2001}. No known effects were observed when the chemical was applied into the eye of rabbits. Hence the chemical Sodium benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1) was considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.

 

The above results were further supported by the experimental study reported by EUROPEAN COMMISSION – European Chemicals Bureau        (IUCLID DATASET for 15206-55-0; EUROPEAN COMMISSION – European Chemicals Bureau, 2000) for read across substance Methyl benzoylformate (CAS No: 15206-55-0). The study was performed according to OECD 405. Rabbits were instilled Methyl benzoylformate in to the eyes and observed for signs of irritation (dose and duration not mentioned). No signs of irritation were observed after instillation of Methyl benzoylformate. Hence, Methyl benzoylformate can be considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.

 

Thus on the basis of available data for thetarget chemical5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) and its structurally similar read across substancesSodium benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1) and Methyl benzoylformate (CAS No: 15206-55-0),it can be concluded thatchemical 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) is unable to cause eye irritation and considered as not irritating. Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The skin and eye irritation potential of test chemical 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) and its structurally similar read across substanceswere observed in various studies. The results obtained from these studies indicate that the chemical 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride is likely to cause severe skin irritation but not able cause ocular damage. Hence 5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazole-4-carbonyl chloride (CAS No: 16883-16-2) can be classified under the category “Category 1” for skin and “Not Classified” for eye as per CLP.
