- Males - 2150 mg/kg bw: liver - minimal to mild centrolobular hypertrophy (surviving animals), mild to marked periportal hepatocellular vacuolization/degeneration and chromatin abnormalities (animals that died); kidney - minimal to mild vacuolization/degeneration of proximal tubular epithelial cells and mild to moderate congestion of the medulla (animals that died);
- Males - 4640 mg/kg bw: liver - mild to marked periportal hepatocellular vacuolization/ degeneration and chromatin abnormalities (animals that died) ; kidney - minimal to mild vacuolization/degeneration of proximal tubular epithelial cells and mild to moderate congestion of the medulla (animals that died)

- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The acute oral LD50 of carbonylhydridotris(triphenylphosphane)-rhodium(I) in rats was established to be above 2000 mg/kg bw.
- Executive summary:
The acute oral toxicity of carbonylhydridotris(triphenylphosphane)-rhodium(I) was evaluated in an OECD Test Guideline 401 study, conducted according to GLP. Test substance was administered by oral stomach tube to rats (5/sex/dose) at a single oral gavage dose of 1000, 2150 or 4640 mg/kg bw in 1% carboxymethylcellulose and observed for up to 14 days.
LD50 values (with 95% confidence limits) were 2206 (1580-3089) mg/kg bw for both sexes together, 2390 (1156-5676) mg/kg bw for males and 2118 (1054-4226) mg/kg bw for females. A small number of clinical signs were apparent in all dose groups. No macroscopic changes in any organs were observed at 1000 mg/kg bw. At higher doses, there were effects in the stomach, liver and kidneys (females only). Males displayed liver histopathology at all doses and kidney effects at the top dose.
The acute oral LD50 of carbonylhydridotris(triphenylphosphane)-rhodium(I) in rats was therefore established to be above 2000 mg/kg bw.
Based on the results of this study, no classification for acute oral toxicity is required according to EU CLP criteria (EC 1272/2008).

The acute oral LD50 of carbonylhydridotris(triphenylphosphane)-rhodium(I) in rats was therefore established to be above 2000 mg/kg bw (Berthold, 1991a).
No acute dermal or inhalation toxicity data were identified, or are required at this tonnage (1-10 tpa).
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
OECD guideline study, and the only acute oral toxicity study available.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the results of the available and reliable acute oral rat study, carbonylhydrotris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium does not require classification for acute oral toxicity according to EU CLP criteria (EC 1272/2008).
No clear evidence of specific target organ toxicity was noted. As such, classification for STOT-SE is not considered appropriate.
