Additional information

Various predicted data for the target compound 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-4-[[4-[[2-(sulphooxy)ethyl]sulphonyl] phenyl]azo]-1-(4-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid (10149-98-1) and experimental data for supporting weight of evidence studies for its closest read across substance with log Kow as the primary descriptor and on the basis of structural and functional similarity study were reviewed for the toxicity on the invertebrates end point which are summarized as below: 

In a prediction done by SSS (2017), based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the six closest read across substances, toxicity on daphnia magna was predicted for 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-4-[[4-[[2-(sulphooxy)ethyl]sulphonyl] phenyl]azo]-1-(4-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid (10149-98-1). Based on the intoxication of test organism the EC50 value was estimated to be 51.9 mg/l when4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-4-[[4-[[2(sulphooxy)ethyl]sulphonyl]phenyl]azo]-1-(4-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid exposed to daphnia magna for 48 hrs. Based on this value it can be concluded that the substance 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-4-[[4-[[2-(sulphooxy) ethyl]sulphonyl]phenyl]azo]-1-(4-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid is considered to be toxic to aquatic environment and can be classified as aquatic chronic 3 category as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.     

 

First predicted study was supported by the structurally similar read across chemical (68391-31-1) study were to determine the toxicity of a chemical. Determination of the inhibition of the mobility of daphnids was carried out with the substance N,N,N-trimethyl-3-[(3-methyl-5-oxo-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)diazenyl]anilinium chloride (Basic yellow 57) according to OECD Guideline 202. The test substance was tested at the concentrations 0, 10, 17, 29, 50 and 85 mg/L. Effects on immobilisation were observed for 48 hours. The median effective concentration (EC50) for the test substance, N,N,N-trimethyl-3-[(3-methyl-5-oxo-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)diazenyl]anilinium chloride (Basic yellow 57), in Daphnia magna was determined to be 35.6 mg/L and also the substance was to be not rapidly degradable. Thus considering the Criteria for aquatic classification of the substance, it is concluded that the substance N,N,N-trimethyl-3-[(3-methyl-5-oxo-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)diazenyl]anilinium chloride exhibits toxicity to aquatic invertebrate (Daphnia magna) and classified in the chronic 3 classification category.

Similarly by considering another functional similar RA chemical (633-96-5) from Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2014 study was carried out. Short term toxicity study to Daphnia similis was carried out for 48 hrs. Neonates of less than 24 h old isolated from Daphnia culture were used for the study. Five test organisms were placed in each screw cap tubes, filled with 10 mL solution, and then incubated at 21±0.3°C in the dark. After 48 h of exposure, the number of immobile organisms was recorded. Jspear software was used to calculate the median 50% immobilization concentration (EC50). Based on immobilization of test organism by test chemical Acid Orange 7, the EC50 value was determine to be 87 mg/l along with confidence interval (p – 0.05) of 76-99 mg/l. based on the EC50 it can be concluded that the chemical was toxic to aquatic invertebrates and can be classified as aquatic chronic 3 category as per the CLP classification criteria.

 

On the basis of above results for target chemical 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-4-[[4-[[2-(sulphooxy)ethyl]sulphonyl] phenyl]azo]-1-(4-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid (10149-98-1) (from OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3) and for its read across substance from ABITEC 2016 and Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2014 it can be concluded that the test substance chemical 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-4-[[4-[[2-(sulphooxy)ethyl] sulphonyl] phenyl]azo]-1-(4-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid is toxic to aquatic environment and can classified as aquatic chronic 3 category per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.
