[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1) to (3), it was classified in Category 1B. Also, based on the new findings, classification results were changed. [Evidence Data] (1) It was reported that, in a skin irritation test with rabbits (n=4) (occlusive, 1-hour application, 8-day observation), full-thickness necrosis of the skin was observed in 2 cases (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), SIAR (2001), AICIS IMAP (2015), REACH registration dossier (Accessed July 2021)). (2) This substance was corrosive under occlusive conditions but not irritating under semi-occlusive conditions. Under semi-occlusive conditions, this substance may have volatilized due to its high volatility (AICIS IMAP (2015)). (3) This substance has irritating effect on the skin and the intensity of the irritating effect depends on the application condition and the volatility (SIAR (2001)). [Reference Data, etc.] (4) It was reported that, in a skin irritation test with rabbits (n=2) (semi-occlusive, 4-hour application, 8-day observation), no erythema or edema was observed in the observation at 24 hours, 48 hours, and 8 days after application (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), SIAR (2001), AICIS IMAP (2015), REACH registration dossier (Accessed July 2021)). |

5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Category 2 |
Warning |
H341 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
[Rationale for the Classification] In (1) to (3), no positive results were obtained in an in vivo test using mammals but from the structure-activity correlation, it was not confirmed that this substance had been transferred and distributed to the target tissues in sufficient concentrations, and in (4), the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare concluded that this substance was genotoxic. Based on the above information, it was classified in Category 2. With the additional new information sources, the classification was reviewed and the classification result was changed. [Evidence Data] (1) As for in vivo, negative results were obtained in a dominant lethal test using rats (inhalation exposure, up to 1,000 ppm) and negative results were obtained in a chromosomal aberration test using bone marrow cells of rats (inhalation exposure, single exposure (7 hours) or 5 consecutive days (7 hours/day), up to 1,000 ppm) (SIAR (2001), REACH registration dossier (Accessed July 2021), AICIS IMAP (2016), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019)). (2) As for in vitro, in a bacterial reverse mutation assay, a mammalian cell gene mutation study (mouse lymphoma cells) and a chromosomal aberration study (CHO), all positive results were obtained (SIAR (2001), REACH registration dossier (Accessed July 2021), AICIS IMAP (2016), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), DFG MAK (1990), US AEGL (2009)). (3) Although this substance was clearly positive in vitro, no mutagenic effects were detected in the bone marrow or germ cells in the vivo test. Concerning this result, the SIDS indicated the possibility that the test substance did not reach the tissues of the cells in sufficient concentrations (SIAR (2001)). (4) Based on the NTP view (NTP TR329 (1988)) that the negative results in the dominant lethal test were induced by the lower concentration of this substance in the testes and the IARC indicating that this substance was an alkylating agent (IARC 71 (1999)), the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare concluded that this substance was genotoxic (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019)). |

6 | Carcinogenicity | Category 2 |
Warning |
H351 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
[Rationale for the Classification] Based on the classification results by domestic and international organizations and the finding that it was positive in one animal species in (1) and (5), it was classified in Category 2. [Evidence Data] (1) As for the classification results by domestic and international organizations, the IARC classified this substance in Group 2B (IARC 71 (1999)) and the Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH) classified it in Group 2B (Recommendation of Occupational Exposure Limits (2020): Classification in 2001), the EU classified it in Carc. 2 (CLP classification result) and the DFG classified it in Category 2 (List of MAK and BAT values 2020). (2) In a 2-year carcinogenicity study by inhalation exposure with rats, an increased incidence of papillary adenomas of the nasal cavity, alveolar/bronchiolar adenocarcinomas and alveolar/bronchiolar adenomas or carcinomas (combined) in males and an increased incidence of papillary adenomas of the nasal cavity in females were observed in the group exposed at the high concentration (400 ppm) (NTP TR329 (1988), Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), AICIS IMAP (2015), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), US AEGL (2009), Canada CMP Screening Assessment (2008), SIAR (2001), DFG MAK (1990), REACH registration dossier (Accessed July 2021)). (3) In a 2-year carcinogenicity study by inhalation exposure with mice, a squamous-cell papilloma was observed in the nasal cavity (incisive duct) in 1 of 50 males in the group exposed at the high concentration (100 ppm) but no other neoplastic lesions related to exposure were observed (NTP TR329 (1988), Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), AICIS IMAP (2015), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), US AEGL (2009), Canada CMP Screening Assessment (2008), SIAR (2001), DFG MAK (1990), REACH registration dossier (Accessed July 2021)). (4) Based on the above animal study results, the NTP concluded that there was clear evidence of carcinogenicity for male rats and equivocal evidence for female rats and no evidence of carcinogenicity was presented in male and female mice (NTP TR329 (1988), SIAR (2001), Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019)). (5) The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare concluded that this substance was a suspected human carcinogen (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019)). |

7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | [Rationale for the Classification] Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, in (2), no developmental toxicity effects were observed. But in (1), no general toxicity effects were observed in parental animals even at the highest dose, and since the dose was insufficient, the presence or absence of effects on fertility could not be judged. In the previous classification, general toxicity effects on parental animals observed in (2) were unknown. Therefore, based on a decrease in the number of pups and an increase in fetal resorption observed at 1,000 ppm, it was classified in Category 2, but at this dose, many death cases in parental animals were reported and the category was changed. [Evidence Data] (1) It was reported that, in a reproduction toxicity study by inhalation exposure with rats (for 3 weeks before mating and days 1 to 19 of gestation, 250 ppm and 1,000 ppm), lower body weight (nonsignificant) was observed in parental animals at 1,000 ppm, but there were no effects on weight and tissues of the main organs and parameters related to reproduction, fetal growth, viability and development were unaffected (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), AICIS IMAP (2015), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), SIAR (2001), US AEGL (2009)). (2) It was reported that, in a developmental toxicity study by inhalation exposure with rabbits (days 1 to 24 of gestation, 250 ppm and 1,000 ppm), marked general toxicity effects were observed in parental animals (12% died) but no developmental toxicity was observed at 250 ppm. 2 of 24 litters showed a decrease in the number of live fetuses and an increase in the frequency of resorptions, and marked general toxicity was observed in parental animals (58% died) at 1,000 ppm (SIAR (2001), Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), AICIS IMAP (2015), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), US AEGL (2009)). (3) The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare reported that since there was little information about reproductive toxicity of this substance and no experimental results showing clear reproductive and developmental toxicity, the reproductive and developmental toxicity of this substance "could not be judged." (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019)). |

Warning |
H336 H335 |
P304+P340 P403+P233 P261 P271 P312 P405 P501 |
[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1) to (4), it was classified in Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation, narcotic effects). Besides, narcotic effects were adopted, since additional information was collected after the previous classification. [Evidence Data] (1) It was reported that, in an acute inhalation (vapor) exposure test with rats (4 hours), ocular discharge and dyspnea were observed at 2,050 ppm (6 mg/L, within the range for Category 1) and death was observed (in all animals) at 6,550 ppm (20 mg/L, within the range for Category 2) (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), SIAR (2001), US AEGL (2009)). (2) It was reported that, in an acute inhalation (vapor) exposure test with mice (4 hours), dyspnea was observed at 2,050 ppm (6.05 mg/L, within the range for Category 1) (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), US AEGL (2009), NTP TR (1988)). (3) It was reported that, in an animal test, this substance was irritating to the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract and might cause a reduction in consciousness at high concentration; inhalation exposure might cause confusion, cough, dizziness, headache, a feeling of suffocation, nausea, sore throat and loss of consciousness; and oral exposure might further cause stomachache (Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011)). (4) It was reported that, in a high-concentration inhalation exposure study of an animal test, this substance had narcotic effects (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), DFG MAK (1990)). |

9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 2 (respiratory organs) |
Warning |
H373 | P260 P314 P501 |
[Rationale for the Classification] Based on the effects on the nasal cavity in (1) to (3), it was classified in Category 2 (respiratory organs). Besides, renal tubular necrosis was observed but it was not adopted because it was observed in the range corresponding to "Not classified." In addition, the effects on the nervous system adopted in the previous classification were not observed in (1) to (6) and were not adopted. [Evidence Data] (1) In a 13-week inhalation toxicity study with rats (vapor, 6 hours/day, 5 days/week), effects on the nasal cavity (flattening and thickening of the olfactory and respiratory epithelium, an increased number of inflammatory cells in the nasal cavity), decreased hepatocellular size, decreased cell content in the cortex of the thymus gland and myeloid hyperplasia in vertebral bone marrow were observed at 600 ppm (1.17 mg/L, in the range corresponding to "Not classified"). It was reported that no effects were observed in the trachea and lungs (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), AICIS IMAP (2015), DFG MAK (1990), US AEGL (2009), SIAR (2001)). (2) It was reported that, in a 13-week inhalation toxicity study with rats (vapor, 6 hours/day, 5 days/week), decreased liver weight and inflammation of the nasal cavity were observed at 800 ppm (2.34 mg/L, in the range corresponding to "Not classified") (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), AICIS IMAP (2015), NTP TR (1988), US AEGL (2009), SIAR (2001)). (3) It was reported that, in a 103-week inhalation toxicity study with rats (vapor, 6 hours/day, 5 days/week), effects on the nasal cavity (inflammation, epithelial hyperplasia, squamous metaplasia, hyperostosis of the nasal turbinate bone, atrophy of the olfactory epithelium) were observed at 200 ppm (0.59 mg/L, within the range for Category 2) (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), AICIS IMAP (2015), NTP TR (1988), DFG MAK (1990), US AEGL (2009), SIAR (2001)). [Reference Data, etc.] (4) In a 13-week inhalation toxicity study with mice (vapor, 6 hours/day, 5 days/week), flattening and thickening of the olfactory and respiratory epithelium, an increased number of inflammatory cells in the nasal cavity, decreased hepatocellular size and decreased cell content in the cortex of the thymus gland were observed at 600 ppm (1.17 mg/L, in the range corresponding to "Not classified"). Besides, it was reported that no effects were observed in the trachea and lungs (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), DFG MAK (1990), US AEGL (2009), SIAR (2001)). (5) It was reported that, in a 13-week inhalation toxicity study with mice (vapor, 6 hours/day, 5 days/week), inflammation of the nasal turbinates was observed at 100 ppm (0.295 mg/L, within the range for Category 1), decreased liver weight was observed at 400 ppm (1.18 mg/L, in the range corresponding to "Not classified"), and renal tubular necrosis and death (all cases) were observed at 800 ppm (2.34 mg/L, in the range corresponding to "Not classified") (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), AICIS IMAP (2015), NTP TR329 (1988), US AEGL (2009), SIAR (2001)). (6) It was reported that, in a 102-week inhalation toxicity study with mice (vapor, 6 hours/day, 5 days/week), effects on the nasal cavity (suppurative inflammation, epithelial hyperplasia, erosion, squamous metaplasia, lesions in the olfactory epithelium and nasolacrimal duct) were observed at 50 ppm (0.15 mg/ L, within the range for Category 1) (Risk Assessment Report (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2019), Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances (Ministry of the Environment, 2011), AICIS IMAP (2015), NTP TR329 (1988), DFG MAK (1990), US AEGL (2009), SIAR (2001)). |
