Conclusions:
Based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the closest read across substances, the toxicity to aquatic invertebrate was predicted (5S)-2-methyl-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one. EC50 growth rate value was estimated to be 154.67 mg/l for Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata for 72 hrs duration. It was concluded that (5S)-2-methyl-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one (CAS: 2244-16-8) was likely to be not toxic to aquatic algae.

Additional information

Following studies of target chemical and structurally similar read across includes predicted data and experimental data to conclude the toxicity extent of (5S)-2-methyl-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one (CAS: 2244-16-8) towards aquatic algae is summarized as follows:

Based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the closest read across substances, the toxicity to aquatic invertebrate was predicted (5S)-2-methyl-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one. EC50 growth rate value was estimated to be 154.67 mg/l for Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata for 72 hrs duration. It was concluded that (5S)-2-methyl-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one (CAS: 2244-16-8) was likely to be not toxic to aquatic algae.

The above predicted data of target chemical is supported by the experimental study of structurally similar read across 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (CAS: 868 -77-9) from the (J check) 2018,, suggests that the Toxicity to aquatic algae and cyanobacteria test was carried out to study the effects of 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate on algae for 72 hr.

The effective concentration EC50 to 50% of algae when exposed to 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate for 72 hr is 710 mg/L.It can be concluded from the value that the 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate is not toxic/toxic to the aquatic algae and can be considered as “not classified” as per the classification criteria for aquatic environment.

Another supporting experimental study for the structurally similar read across 1,1,3-Trimethyl-3-cyclohexene-5-one (CAS: 78-59-1) from the Environmental Protection Agency 1978, also suggests that the Toxicity to aquatic algae test was carried for 96 hr to study the effects of 1,1,3-Trimethyl-3-cyclohexene-5-one on aquatic algae.Decreasing trend of Population (Chlorophyll A concentration) was measured during the test.

Effective concentration EC50 to 50% of Skeletonema costatum when exposed to 1,1,3-Trimethyl-3-cyclohexene-5-one for 96 hr is 110 mg/L. It can be concluded from the value that the 1,1,3-Trimethyl-3-cyclohexene-5-one is not toxic to the aquatic algae and can be considered as “not classified” as per the classification criteria for aquatic environment.

Thus based on the effect concentrations which is in the range 110 mg/L to710 mg/lgive the conclusion that test substance (5S)-2-methyl-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one (CAS: 2244-16-8) is likely to be not toxic to aquatic algae at environmentally relevant concentrations and applying weight of evidence approach it can be considered to be “not classified” as per the CLP classification criteria.
