Description of key information

Does not significantly accumulate in organisms

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Concerning the bioaccumulation potential of 4,4'-methylenebis(2-methylcyclohexanamine) (CAS 6864-37-5, DMDC) a valid study was performed by NITE Japan (2002) according to OECD 305C (replaced); OECD 305-I (2012), with Cyprinus carpio as test species and using a flow-through procedure. This study was selected as key study. After 60 days, a max. BCF of < 60 was measured, indicating that the substance will not significantly bioaccumulate in organisms.

The experimental result is supported by calculated data (BASF SE, 2015, 2019). The BCF was calculated to be 15.29 L/kg; the substance is within the applicability domain of the estimation model (BCFBAF v3.01, submodel according to Meylan et al. 1997/1999; EPISuite v4.11). In addition, the BCF was calculated with the BCF baseline model v03.10 (Catalogic v5.13.1) to be 61.1 L/kg (log BCF = 1.79) without considering any mitigating factors. Metabolism, molecular size and water solubility had a mitigating effect on the bioaccumulation potential. The BCF was estimated to be 17.4 L/kg (log BCF = 1.24; BASF SE, 2019) if mitigating effects were considered. The substance was 100% within the applicability domain of the model.

Metabolites:

Metabolites (n = 128) from the degradation of 4,4'-methylenebis(2 -methylcyclohexanamine (CAS 6864 -37 -5) were predicted using the QSAR model Catalogic 301C v11.15. The metabolites are identified by the Smiles code. The table below also lists the estimated quantity of appearance from the degradationas well as the log Kow and the biodegradability (BOD prediction). The metabolites with a quantity of > 0.001 mol/mol parent are regarded to be relevant for the environmental assessment. It was attempted to identify the relevant metabolites either via the QSAR Toolbox and/or the advanced search option for substances on the ECHA website. In case a name and/or CAS number was assigned, the PBT/vPvB status acording to the ECHA website was checked.

Based on the available informatio nit can be concluded that only three metabolites (metab. no. 2, 117, 123) have a log Kow > 3. In addition these substances are not readily biodegradable. However, as their predicted quantitiy is below 0.001 mol/mol parent, they are not relevant for the PBT assessment of the parent substance's metabolites.

37 of the 128 metabolites have a predicted quantity of > 0.001 mol/mol parent and are regarded as relevant for further assessment. 26 of these metabolites are not readily biodegradable, but all of these 37 metabolites have a log Kow < 3; therefore, a significant bioaccumulation potential is not expected. It can be concluded that these substances are not PBT/vPvB substances.

Their toxicity (T) was not further assessed as no critical combination of potential P/vP (= not readily biodegradable) and potential B/vB (log Kow > 3) properties was observed.

(metabolites which are predicted at quantity >0.001 after 28 d are highlighted in grey and written in bold letters)

(metabolite no: according to (Q)SAR model CATALOGIC 301C v11.15 – July 2018 (OASIS CATALOGIC v5.13.1.156))

Conclusion:

The parent (DMDC (CAS 6864 -37 -5) as well as its relevant metabolites are not expected to significantly accumulate in organisms.
