Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
Triphenyl phosphate
EC Number:
204-112-2
EC Name:
Triphenyl phosphate
Cas Number:
115-86-6
Molecular formula:
C18H15O4P
IUPAC Name:
triphenyl phosphate

Test animals

Species:
rat
Strain:
Wistar
Sex:
male
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
Rats used weighed between 150-200g.

Administration / exposure

Control animals:
yes, concurrent no treatment
Details on study design:
Rat livers were removed and the microsomal and soluble fractions extracted. An ethanol solution of TPP at 0.0004M was used as substrate to determine the extent of decomposition by the fractions with and without NADPH and other enzyme systems. Major metabolites resulting from TPP degradation were characterised using gas chromotography.

Metabolite characterisation studies

Metabolites identified:
yes
Details on metabolites:
Diphenyl phosphate (DPP) was the only major metabolite of TPP.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
TPP is degraded by hydrolysis in rat liver homogenate to diphenyl phosphate (DPP) as the major product.
Executive summary:

Investigation to obtain basic data on the metabolic transformation of TPP, the decomposition of TPP in vitro by rat liver preparation was examined and the effects of coenzymes and inhibitors on the metabolism were investigated to elucidate the predominant enzyme reaction involved. The results showed that TPP was decomposed to diphenyl phosphate (DPP) by both MFO and arylesterase in microsomes.
