Description of key information
Acute oral toxicity:
Acute oral toxicity dose (LD50) was determined by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB and the acute oral LD50 (Cut-off value) was 500 mg/kg bw.It was concluded that LD50 value is between 300 - 2000 mg/kg bw.Thus, acute toxicity study of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene] cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6), when administered via oral route in Sprague Dawley rats falls into the “Category 4 (300 – ≤ 2000)” criteria of CLP.
Acute inhalation toxicity:
[4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene] cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate has very low vapor pressure 5.76E-018Pa, so the potential for the generation of inhalable vapours is very low. Also the normal conditions of use of this substance will not result in aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size, so exposure to humans via the inhalatory route will be highly unlikely and therefore this end point was considered for waiver.
Acute dermal toxicity:
Acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6), when administered to male and female Sprague Dawley rats was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight. Thus, according to CLP criteria for acute toxicity rating for the chemicals, it infers that [4-[[4-anilino- 1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) falls into the “Category 5 (>2000)” criteria of CLP.

Thus, it was concluded that the acute toxicity study of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6), when administered via oral route in Sprague Dawley rats falls into the “Category 4 (300 – ≤ 2000)” criteria of CLP.
- Executive summary:
The study now reported was designed and conducted to determine the acute oral toxicity profile of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) 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 resulted in diarrhoea and test item coloured faeces with onset at 1 to 4 hours after the dosing and no mortality 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 resulted in diarrhoea, test item coloured faeces and reduced locomotor activity with onset at 30 minutes to 1 hour after the dosing. One animal died on day 1 after the dosing.
One 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 resulted in diarrhoea, test item coloured faeces, reduced locomotor activity and ataxic gait with onset at 1 to 6 hours after the dosing. Three animals died on day 1 after the dosing.
All surviving animals from 300 mg/kg dose group exhibited normal body weight gain through the study period of 14 days.
Gross pathological examination did not reveal any abnormalities in animals sacrificed terminally from 300 mg/kg dose group.
Gross pathological examination revealed stomach distended with bluish discoloured mucosa and small and large intestine distended with coloured liquid ingesta in found dead animals from 300 mg/kg and 2000 mg/kg dose groups.
The acute oral LD50 (Cut-off value) of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) was 500 mg/kg body weight.
Thus, it was concluded that the acute toxicity study of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethyl ammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6), when administered via oral route in Sprague Dawley rats falls into the “Category 4 (300 – ≤ 2000)” criteria of CLP.

Additional information
Acute oral toxicity:
In an experimental study conducted by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB (study no.19154, 2017) was designed and conducted to determine the acute oral toxicity profile of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) 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 resulted in diarrhoea and test item coloured faeces with onset at 1 to 4 hours after the dosing and no mortality 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 resulted in diarrhoea, test item coloured faeces and reduced locomotor activity with onset at 30 minutes to 1 hour after the dosing. One animal died on day 1 after the dosing. One 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 resulted in diarrhoea, test item coloured faeces, reduced locomotor activity and ataxic gait with onset at 1 to 6 hours after the dosing. Three animals died on day 1 after the dosing. All surviving animals from 300 mg/kg dose group exhibited normal body weight gain through the study period of 14 days. Gross pathological examination did not reveal any abnormalities in animals sacrificed terminally from 300 mg/kg dose group. Gross pathological examination revealed stomach distended with bluish discoloured mucosa and small and large intestine distended with coloured liquid ingesta in found dead animals from 300 mg/kg and 2000 mg/kg dose groups. The acute oral LD50 (Cut-off value) of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) was 500 mg/kg body weight. Thus, it was concluded that the acute toxicity study of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethyl ammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6), when administered via oral route in Sprague Dawley rats falls into the “Category 4 (300 – ≤ 2000)” criteria of CLP.
In another study conducted by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB has letter of access from BASF SE, (XXIV/56, 1976) was designed and conducted to determine the acute oral toxicity profile of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) in 50 male/female rats by using the methods described in OED Guideline 401. The test material was diluted in water and administered via oral gavage route at the concentration of 464, 681, 1000, 4640 and 6810 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for clinical signs, mortality, body weight, pathology for 7 days. At 6810, 4640 and 1000 mg/kg bw: 10/10 animals died; At 681 mg/kg bw: 7/10 animals died; and At 464 mg/kg bw: 2/10 animals died. Animals showed clinical signs such as, dyspnea, apathy, blue feces, acute dilatation in heart and diarrhea.Weight loss was observed in animals.Hence, the LD50 was considered to be 588 mg/kg bw. It was concluded that the acute toxicity study of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethyl ammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6), when administered via oral route in rats falls into the “Category 4 (300 – ≤ 2000)” criteria of CLP.
This study is supported by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB has letter of access from BASF AG, Department of Toxicology, Ludwigshafen, Germany (78/512, 1983) was designed and conducted to determine the acute oral toxicity profile of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethyl ammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) in 30 Sprague-Dawley male/female rat. The test material was diluted in water and administered via oral gavage route at the concentration of 681, 1000 and 1470 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for clinical signs, mortality, body weight, pathology for 14 days. At 1470 mg/kg bw: 9/10 animals died; At 1000 mg/kg bw: 6/10 animals died; and At 681 mg/kg bw: 1/10 animals died after 14 days. Animals showed clinical signs such as,dyspnea, stertor, apathy, abnomal position, staggering, blue faeces, blue urine, exsiccosis, exopthalamus, paresis, and poor general state. Dead animals showed: acute right diluatation in heart, acute congestive hyperemia; peripheral obule marking in liver; In stomach/intestine: mucosa stained by the test substance; intestine; atonic; pale grey muscle were observed. In sacrificed animals: nothing abnormal detected in organs (n.a.d.). Hence, the LD50 was considered to be 965 mg/kg bw.It was concluded that the acute toxicity study of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethyl ammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6), when administered via oral route in rats falls into the “Category 4 (300 – ≤ 2000)” criteria of CLP.
In another study conducted bySustainability Support Services (Europe) AB has letter of access from INBIFO, Institut für biologische Forschung, Köln (77/461, 1978), for the structurally similar read across substance [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium chloride (2580-56-5) in Sprague-Dawley male/female rat. The test substance at the concentrations used: 10, 31.6, 100, 178 mg/l was diluted in water at application volume: 31.6 ml/kg and administered via oral gavage route at the dose of 316, 1000, 3160, and 5620 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for clinical signs, mortality, body weight, pathology for 14 days.Body weight was determined shortly before and 7 and 8 days after administration. Clinical symptoms and mortality was recorded as < 15 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 5 h and 24 h after administration, then at least daily until day 14. At 316 mg/kg: no deaths; At 1000 mg/kg: 6/10; At 3160 mg/kg: 9/10; At 5620 mg/kg: 5/5 after 14 days of observation. Clinical signs such as, apathy, tight palpebral fissures, decreased and shapeless faeces, squeaking and stertorous respiratory sounds. Among the animals of the highest dose group gasping, muscular hypotonia, and a reduced reaction to pain were also observed. 2 days after administration, the majority of surviving animals were without findings. Body weight gain was observed. Animals that died: In some cases the adrenal glands and kidneys were discoloured and bluish; in 2 animals the liver was blackish; in 2 animals the spleen was considerably diminished; in another rat spleen and thymus were considerably diminished, and the adipose tissue extremely reduced; in one animal the adipose tissue was considerably reduced. Animals sacrificed at study termination: In one animal the spleen was considerably enlarged. All other animals were without findings. Therefore, the LD50 was considered to be 1037.0 mg/kg bw.It was concluded that the acute toxicity study of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium chloride (2580-56-5), when administered via oral route in rats falls into the “Category 4 (300 – ≤ 2000)” criteria of CLP.
The above study is further supported by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB has letter of access from BASF AG, Department of Toxicology, Ludwigshafen (XVII/198, 1967), for the structurally similar read across substance [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium chloride (2580-56-5) in male/female "US" rats. The test substance was diluted in water at concentrations used were 10, 16 and 30% (G/V) and administered via oral gavage route at the dose of 1000, 1600 and 3200 mg/kg bw. Animals were observed for clinical signs, mortality, body weight, pathology for 7 days.At1000 mg/kg: 1/10 animals died; at 1600 mg/kg: 5/10 animals died; and at 3200 mg/kg: 9/10 animals died after 7 days of observation.Clinical signs was observed after 4 hours long-legged gait, intermittently, partly accelerated breathing, restlessness, partly diarrhea. Female animals showed dark-green coloured feces and urine. After one day all animals showed a dark-green colouration of feces and urine, accelerated breathing, partly crouched position. One animal of the 1000 mg/kg dose group showed dyspnea. After 4 - 6 days all surviving animals were without symptoms.Animals that died showed blue colouration of the gastro-intestinal tract, slight blue-smeared ani and snouts. Sacrificed animals showed: slight blue up to greenish colouration parts on the tails. Hence, the LD50 was considered to be 1600 mg/kg bw.It was concluded that the acute toxicity study of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium chloride (2580-56-5), when administered via oral route in rats falls into the “Category 4 (300 – ≤ 2000)” criteria of CLP.
Acute inhalation toxicity:
[4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene] cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate has very low vapor pressure 5.76E-018Pa, so the potential for the generation of inhalable vapours is very low. Also the normal conditions of use of this substance will not result in aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size, so exposure to humans via the inhalatory route will be highly unlikely and therefore this end point was considered for waiver.
Acute dermal toxicity:
In a experimental study conducted by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB (report no.19155, 2017) was designed and conducted to determine the acute dermal toxicity profile of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) 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 [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6), when administered to male and female Sprague Dawley rats was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight. Thus, according to CLP criteria for acute toxicity rating for the chemicals, it infers that [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) falls into the “Category 5 (>2000)” criteria of CLP.
In another experimental study conducted by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB has letter of access from BASF AG, Department of Toxiclolgy, Ludwigshafen, Germany (Report no. XXIV/56, 1976) was designed and conducted to determine the acute dermal toxicity profile of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) in Sprague Dawley rats. The test item was applied to the 50 cm² area of skin of 5 male/female animals at 5000 mg/kg body weight. Administration of the test item at 5000 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.No abnormalities were noted at necropsy.All animals obtained local staining (dark blue) from residual substance. It was concluded that the acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) of [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6), when administered to male and female Sprague Dawley rats was found to be 5000 mg/kg body weight. Thus, according to CLP criteria for acute toxicity rating for the chemicals, it infers that [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene] dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) falls into the “Category 5 (>2000)” criteria of CLP.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Thus, based on the above study on [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate (CAS No. 83803-79-6) and its read across substance, it can be concluded that LD50 value is between 300 - 2000 mg/kg bw for acute oral toxicity and is greater 2000 mg/kg bw for acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, [4-[[4-anilino-1-naphthyl][4-(dimethylamino)phenyl] methylene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium acetate can be classified as category 4 for acute oral and category 5 dermal toxicity. For Acute inhalation toxicity wavier were added so, not possible to classify.
