- Executive summary:
In the preliminary phase of an acute oral toxicity study (fixed dose) fasted young adult female Wistar rats (one per dose) were given a single oral dose of benzenesulfonic acid, 4-C10-13-sec-alkyl derivs.-, compd. with 2-propanamine (1:1) (97%) at doses of 300 or 2000 mg/kg bw. No effects on the animals were seen at both dose levels, and therefore, the main study was performed with the higher dose of 2000 mg/kg bw, as a solution in arachis oil BP.
Oral LD50females> 2000 mg/kg bw
No adverse effects were detected.
Benzenesulfonic acid, 4-C10-13-sec-alkyl derivs.-, compd. with 2-propanamine (1:1) is of low toxicity based on an LD50 higher than the classification criterion. The substance shall not be labelled for acute oral toxicity.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed
- Dose descriptor:
- discriminating dose
- Value:
- 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Quality of whole database:
- The oral LD50 of LAS IPA is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw. The whole database is sufficient to fully address this endpoint.
Acute toxicity: via inhalation route
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
- Quality of whole database:
- According to REACH Regulation substances other than gases shall be tested through one more route except for the oral for acute toxicity (inhalation or demal). The dermal route was considered more appropriate for Benzenesulfonic acid, 4-C10-13-sec-alkyl derivs.-, compd. with 2-propanamine, and therefore the requirement for acute inhalation toxicity is waived.
Acute toxicity: via dermal route
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- adverse effect observed
- Quality of whole database:
- The calculated oral LD50 of LAS IPA (molar basis) is >2000 mg/kg bw. The whole database is sufficient to fully address this endpoint.
Additional information
Oral toxicity
LAS IPA
In an acute oral toxicity study (fixed dose) fasted young adult female Wistar rats (one per dose) were given a single oral dose of benzenesulfonic acid, 4-C10-13-sec-alkyl derivs.-, compd. with 2-propanamine (97%) at doses of 300 or 2000 mg/kg bw. No effects on the animals were seen at both dose levels, and therefore, the main study was performed with the higher dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. No adverse effects were seen and the LD50 is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw.
Additional information
LAS Na
A study comparable to OECD guideline 401 found an acute oral LD50 of 1080 mg/kg. According to EU GHS guidelines, the test substance is a Category IV toxicant.
The supporting studies examined the oral toxicity for various concentrations of the test substance (75%, 65% and 60%) in rats. The studies followed the same test protocol and methods as the key study. The effects and symptoms observed with the key study for the test substance were also observed in the supporting study. The acute oral LD50’s determined for the concentrations were 1600 mg/kg, 2190 mg/kg and 2760 mg/kg for 75%, 65% and 60% actives, respectively. According to CLP-Regulation, the test substance is a Category IV toxicant (H302: Harmful if swallowed) at concentrations equal to or greater than 65%, while it is not classified at lower concentrations.
IPA
Based on data from a single publication (Myers & Ballantyne, 1997), the oral LD50 of IPA is <173 mg/kg bw), when tested in Wistar rats orally by gavage. The animals suffered from lung hemorrhage, kidney and adrenal congestion, gastric and intestinal hemorrhage, and ulceration. Most surviving animals did not show any significant gross pathological signs.
Compared to the LD50 for LAS-IPA (> 2000 mg/kg bw), this LD50 is much lower. This substantial difference between the two LD50s can be explained by the reactive nature of the alkyl amine (IPA), due to its strong basicity, as well as ability to engage in e.g. Maillard reactions. Adverse effects observed after a single oral administration of IPA are primarily attributable to the alkyl amine itself and not to the ammonium cation (IPA+).
The normalized LD50 of IPA to LAS-IPA is <1130 mg/kg bw. Nonetheless, since no exact values are available for both LAS-IPA and IPA making a comparison is difficult. To a certain extent differences in LD50s can be also explained by the variability in toxicity testing.
It is therefore considered appropriate to base the acute oral toxicity endpoint and classification decision on the LD50 derived in the recent study performed with the substance LAS-IPA itself.
Dermal toxicity
The endpoint of acute dermal toxicity was addressed with data on LAS Na and IPA, since there is no available information on LAS-IPA.
IPA
The result of the study used with isopropylamine, shows a dermal LD50 higher than 400 mg/kg bw. No further doses were tested. With lack of further information, this would put the substance on a classification category of Acute Tox.3, H311.
LAS Na
The clipped skin on the backs of five male and five female rats were exposed to LAS Na under an occlusive dressing for 24 hours and observed for another 14 days. Results indicate slight erythema and slight oedema but no acute mortality. The dermal LD50 is > 2000 mg/kg.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
GLP, Guideline study performed with the substance itself. All other information come from studies performed with LAS Na and IPA, which are considered less relevant.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
The weight of evidence approach was applied to address the endpoint of acute dermal toxicity, since no study available can per se address this requirement; information from two available studies were used.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the results of the key test the oral LD50 for LAS IPA is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw, which does not lead to any classification for acute oral toxicity (EC Regulation 1272/2008).
The endpoint of acute dermal toxicity was addressed with data from LAS Na and IPA. The dermal LD50 for LAS Na is >2000 mg/kg bw. The dermal LD50 for IPA is higher than 400 mg/kg bw, i.e. 2600 mg/kg bw for LAS IPA, calculated by scaling based on the molecular weight.LAS IPA shall not be classified for acute dermal toxicity.
