Read across information

REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH

1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH

STRUCTURAL SIMILARITY
Both the substances share the same carbon skeleton, which is pyrene. The query substance holds four sulfonates groups while the proposed analogue has one hydroxy group replacing a sulfonate. Both sulfonate and hydroxy groups are hydrophilic in nature. However, the hydroxy group is only ionised at high pHs (pKa of phenol is around 101) while the sulfonate group would remain ionised over the whole range of aqueous pHs. Therefore, Read-Across substance is expected to be slightly less hydrophilic and more volatile than the query substance, which is confirmed by the log KOW and vapour pressure studies.
Both the substances are expected to be stable in pure form or in water, and they are expected to be not volatile (high boiling point, low vapour pressure), highly hydrophilic (low log KOW, high water solubility) due to the presence of four strongly hydrophilic groups.

2. SOURCE AND TARGET CHEMICAL(S) (INCLUDING INFORMATION ON PURITY AND IMPURITIES)
See Test material sections of the source and target records for details.

3. ANALOGUE APPROACH JUSTIFICATION
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION
Therefore, both the structures are expected to have very similar physico-chemical properties. Moreover, Read-Across substance being less hydrophilic than the query substance, it will be a worst-case (or conservative) prediction, for instance when estimating the accumulation potential of the substance.
Consequently, trisodium 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonate is judged to be a good Read-Across for tetrasodium 1,3,6,8-pyrenetetrasulfonate.
Conclusion: Strong similarity between the predicted and experimental values suggest that there the selection of QSAR models to predict the Log Kow of the query and read-across substance was valid and reliable.

Description of key information

Multiple Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) models were used to predict the log n-Octanol/ water partition coefficient of the test item Tetrasodium 1,3,6,8-pyrenetetrasulfonate.

Based on multiple QSAR models applied, the final n-Octanol/water partition coefficient for Tetrasodium 1,3,6,8-pyrenetetrasulfonatewas predicted as -0.37.

The final n-Octanol/water partition coefficient was derived by applying a consensus method on the reliable results derived for individual models. The final QSAR result can be associated with a Klimisch score:K2

The same method was used to predict the log n-Octanol/water partition coefficient of the analogue test item trisodium 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonate. The final log n-Octanol/water partition/water coefficient predicted for trisodium 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonate assigned by the study investigator: -0.38. Klimisch score assigned by the study investigtor for the final prediction: K2

Test results published on the ECHA website provided a result of -0.68 for log n-Octanol/water partition coefficient for the analogue test item trisodium 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonate.

Comparison with the QSAR results for the analogue substance, together with the available data on the analogue substance indicate that testing using 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonate would be expected to provide a result consistent with that generated using QSAR.

-0.37

Additional information

Both the structures are expected to have very similar physico-chemical properties. Moreover, Read-Across substance being less hydrophilic than the query substance, it will be a worst-case (or conservative) prediction, for instance when estimating the accumulation potential of the substance.

Consequently, trisodium 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonate is judged to be a good Read-Across for tetrasodium 1,3,6,8-pyrenetetrasulfonate.

Conclusion: Strong similarity between the predicted and experimental values suggest that there the selection of QSAR models to predict the Log Kow of the query and read-across substance was valid and reliable.
