Executive summary:

Data available for the structurally and functionally similar read across chemicals has been reviewed to determine the short term toxicity of fish of the test chemical 2-(3-oxobenzo[b]thien-2(3H)-ylidene)benzo[b]thiophene-3(2H)-one (522 -75 -8).The studies are as mentioned below:

1. Test material was subjected to evaluate its acute toxicity effect on Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas)10 Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) were acclimatized in 5-gallon wide mouth glass jar for 10 days before the test in the test temperature 17°C. The test organisms were pre-treated with tetracycline . The nominal concentration were0 , 18 , 32 ,56 , 100 , 180 mg/l

 Test material was subjected in the test vessel upto the concentration of 180 mg/l . No toxic effect were observed after 96 hrs. Hence the effect concentration was considered to be >180g/l.

2. Short term toxicity test on fish was performed to evaluate potential of toxicity of test material on Oryzias latipes.The median lethel effect concentration (LC50) was noted at 24 , 72 , 96 h . The LC50 for test material was observed to be >1000 mg/l after 96 h. Based on this value it can be conluded that test material is not toxic to fish and can not be classified as per CLP criteria.

By considering LC50 value it is concluded that test chemical is not toxic tofish and can be considered as “Not classified” according to CLP classification criteria.

Thus, based on the above summarised studies, 2-(3-oxobenzo[b]thien-2(3H)-ylidene)benzo[b]thiophene-3(2H)-one and it’s structurally and functionally similar read across substance, it can be concluded that effect concetration value is greater than 1000 mg/L. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, 2-(3-oxobenzo[b]thien-2(3H)-ylidene)benzo[b]thiophene-3(2H)-one cannot be classified

for short term toxicity for fish .Hence,based on the data available for the structurally and functionally similar

read across, test chemical 2-(3-oxobenzo[b]thien-2(3H)-ylidene)benzo[b]thiophene-3(2H)-one is not likely to be toxic atleast in the range concentration range of 1000mg/L .
