FORWARD
to
the
SECOND
EDITION
As
discussed
in
the
FORWARD
to
the
first
edition
of
Estimating
Toxicity
of
Industrial
Chemicals
to
Aquatic
Organisms
Using
Structure­
Activity
Relationships,
the
development
of
predictive
ecotoxicology
models
for
industrial
chemicals
creates
challenges
that
are
unique
compared
to
those
faced
in
drug
or
agrichemical
design.
Under
the
requirements
of
the
Toxic
Substances
Control
Act
there
is,
however,
no
choice
but
to
face
these
challenges
and
provide
the
means
to
assess
the
ecological
risks
of
new
and
existing
compounds.

Since
releasing
their
first
edition
in
1988,
the
scientists
within
the
Environmental
Effects
Branch
of
the
Office
of
Pollution
Prevention
and
Toxics
have
continued
to
develop
property­
activity
correlations
that
are
relevant
for
industrial
chemicals
found
in
commerce.
In
publish
the
second
edition
of
Estimating
Toxicity
of
Industrial
Chemicals
to
Aquatic
Organisms
Using
Structure­
Activity
Relationships,
the
contributors
have
once
again
demonstrated
their
commitment
to
share
the
results
of
these
efforts
with
the
scientific
and
regulatory
community.
This
second
edition
contains
over
70
additional
property­
activity
correlations
and
is
a
companion
document
to
ECOSAR,
which
is
a
computerized
version
of
the
relationships
developed
by
the
contributors.
Through
this
on­
going
contribution
to
the
world­
wide
'structure­
activity
relationship
knowledge
base',
the
scientist
in
the
Environmental
Effects
Branch
are
also
providing
the
means
to
identify
first­
order
uncertainties
in
the
development
and
use
of
these
predictive
models.
The
influence
of
the
first
and
second
edition
on
the
application
of
structure­
activity
relationships
and
the
course
of
future
research
in
are
of
environmental
toxicology
can
not
be
minimized.
Of
particular
interest
is
the
continuing
to
develop
models
for
chronic
effects
and
to
establish
objective
techniques
whereby
compounds
can
be
assigned
to
specific
relationships.

Again,
I
congratulate
the
contributors
to
this
document
for
their
dedication
in
implementing
structure­
activity
relationships
in
ecological
risk
assessments
and
for
fostering
the
exchange
of
information
that
is
essential
for
the
advancement
of
the
field.

FORWARD
The
world
of
the
scientist
in
a
regulatory
agency
which
is
responsible
for
chemical
safety
is
quite
different
from
that
in
physical
organic
chemistry,
toxicology,
or
drug
design.
Nothing
highlights
the
difference
quite
like
the
scientists
who
implement
the
EPA
mandate
to
review
industrial
chemicals
for
health
and
environmental
effects.
More
conventional
research
scientists
work
in
data­
rich
areas
where
chemical
models
are
comparatively
precise.
Only
under
the
Toxic
Substances
Control
Act
(TSCA),
implemented
by
the
Office
of
Toxic
Substances,
can
we
find
the
responsibility
to
evaluate
the
broad
spectrum
of
chemical
safety
with
little
or
no
data
on
either
new
or
existing
chemicals.

These
scientist
responded
to
the
EPA
responsibilities
by
adapting
approaches
used
in
drug
design
and
chemistry
to
predict
the
environmental
behavior
and
toxicology
of
chemicals
from
their
structure
rather
than
extensive
test
data.
The
Office
of
Research
and
Development
has
enjoyed
a
tenyear
partnership
with
the
Office
of
Toxic
Substances
in
developing
quantitative
structure­
activity
relationships
to
estimate
the
bioaccumulation
potential,
the
persistence,
and
the
toxicity
of
chemicals
in
the
environment.
Much
developmental
work
remains
to
be
done
in
efforts
to
more
thoroughly
evaluate
chronic
effects
of
long
term
exposure;
nonetheless,
many
relationships
are
adequate
to
assist
regulatory
scientists
in
making
judgements
concerning
the
risks
of
chemicals.

As
we
continue
to
improve
our
understanding
of
relationships
between
chemical
structure
and
effects,
the
Environmental
Effects
Branch
realized
the
value
of
this
technology
to
other
scientists
in
EPA
Regions
and
states.
Their
initiative
to
summarize
the
state­
of­
the­
art
in
this
document
and
make
it
available
to
others
is
another
example
of
the
futuristic
planning
of
this
group.
The
predictive
power
of
the
methods
included
in
this
document
varies
with
the
available
data
and
complexity
of
the
toxicity
mechanisms.
However,
the
predictive
power
will
continue
to
increase
over
the
next
decade
as
new
chemical
models
are
formed.
I
congratulate
the
contributors
to
this
document
for
the
increasing
effort
to
formulate
structure­
activity
relationships
from
scant
data,
and
for
their
desire
to
share
this
work
with
others
in
the
scientific
and
regulatory
community.

INTRODUCTION
For
many
years,
the
manufacturers
of
pharmaceuticals,
pesticides,
and
dyes
have
used
the
relationship
between
chemical
structure
and
a
specific
effect
to
search
for
new
chemicals.
These
relationships
are
called
structure­
activity
relationships
(SARs).
Under
Section
5
of
the
Toxic
Substances
Control
Act
of
1976,
EPA
must
review
and
evaluate
all
new
chemicals
before
enter
they
enter
commerce.
The
Environmental
Effects
Branch
(EEB)
of
OPPT
has
been
responsible
for
the
assessment
and
evaluation
of
these
new
chemicals
and
for
identifying
those
chemicals
of
greatest
concern
for
environmental
hazard.
Since
1976,
of
all
chemicals
submitted
to
EPA
under
Section
5
of
TSCA,
fewer
than
5%
of
the
Premanufacture
Notices
have
contained
toxicity
data
pertaining
to
terrestrial
and
aquatic
organisms.
To
meet
its
regulatory
mandate,
EEB
began
using
SARs
in
1979
to
estimate
the
toxicity
of
chemicals
in
the
absence
of
test
data.

The
application
of
SARs
in
the
field
of
environmental
toxicology
is
relatively
new.
Some
of
the
early
research
work
began
in
the
1960's.
During
the
1970's,
many
investigators
began
examining
the
relationships
among
chemical
properties
and
the
toxicity
to
aquatic
and
terrestrial
organisms.
Among
the
leaders
in
this
area
was
the
U.
S.
EPA
Environmental
Research
Laboratory
at
Duluth
(ERL­
Duluth)
who
pioneered
research
in
the
development
and
application
of
SARs
to
environmental
toxicology.
In
the
mid­
1970's
they
developed
and
later
published
the
SAR
for
predicting
the
bioconcentration
of
neutral
organic
compounds
in
fish
based
upon
the
octanol/
water
partition
coefficient.
In
1979,
they
initiated
a
long­
term
research
program
to
develop
SARs
for
industrial
organic
chemicals.
Between
1981
and
1983,
EEB
staff
evaluated
and
adopted
13
of
these
SARs
for
use
in
predicting
toxicity
to
fish,
aquatic
invertebrates,
and
green
algae.
To
date,
the
scientists
at
ERL­
Duluth
have
measured
the
toxicity
of
over
800
compounds.
From
this
research,
they
have
developed
SARs
for
at
least
a
dozen
classes
of
compounds
to
both
freshwater
and
marine
fish.
Recently,
emphasis
at
ERL­
Duluth
has
shifted
toward
SARs
for
chronic
toxicity
with
numerous
chronic
values
now
being
published.

The
octanol/
water
partition
coefficient
(Kow
)
has
been
the
major
attribute
used
by
most
investigators
to
correlate
structure
and
toxic
effect.
The
most
frequently
used
relationship
is
the
logarithm
of
the
Kow
versus
the
logarithm
of
the
median
toxicity
(LC50
and
EC50
)
value.
To
date
the
major
focus
has
been
centered
around
the
class
of
industrial
organic
chemicals
known
as
neutral
organics.
These
compounds
are
non­
ionizable,
non­
reactive
and
neutral
with
respect
to
charge;
however,
SARs
have
been
developed
for
other
classes
of
chemicals
and
new
ones
continue
to
be
derived
as
data
become
available.

This
manual
is
intended
to
accompany
an
SAR
program,
called
ECOSAR,
that
has
been
developed
by
EEB
for
use
on
a
personal
computer.
ECOSAR
is
menu­
driven
and
contains
on­
line
help,
including
a
User's
Guide.
ECOSAR
includes
all
of
the
chemical
classes
and
SARs
contained
in
this
manual.
Most
toxicity
values
(in
mg/
L)
are
based
on
log
Kow
and
molecular
weight
information
supplied
by
the
user,
although
as
discussed
below,
some
SARs
require
other
physical
data,
such
as
number
of
ethoxylates
or
percent
amine
nitrogen.
ECOSAR
may
be
obtained
from
the
sources
listed
at
the
end
of
the
Introduction.

Chemical
Classes
This
manual
presents
information
for
deriving
toxicity
values
for
four
primary
classes
of
chemicals:

(1)
Neutral
organics
that
are
nonreactive
and
nonionizable;
(2)
Organics
that
are
reactive
and
ionizable
and
that
exhibit
excess
toxicity
in
addition
to
narcosis;
(3)
Surface­
active
organic
compounds
such
as
surfactants
and
polycationic
polymers;
and
(4)
Inorganic
compounds
including
organometallics.
2
Neutral
organic
compounds
that
are
nonelectrolytic
and
nonreactive
act
as
anesthetics
or
narcotics.
This
class
of
compounds
includes
alcohols,
ketones,
ethers,
alkyl
halides,
aryl
halides,
aromatic
hydrocarbons,
aliphatic
hydrocarbons,
many
cyanates,
sulfides,
and
disulfides.

Organic
compounds
with
a
more
specific
mode
of
toxicity
may
contain
reactive
functional
groups
such
as
electrophilic
moieties.
These
compounds
are
more
toxic
than
would
be
predicted
by
using
an
SAR
for
a
narcotic
compound.
Chemicals
which
exhibit
excess
toxicity
include
acrylates,
methacrylates,
aldehydes,
anilines,
beta­
diketones
(linear
forms),
benzotriazoles,
esters,
phenols,
aziridines,
and
epoxides.
A
separate
SAR
has
been
developed
for
each
of
these
classes.

Surface­
active
chemicals
may
act
on
the
respiratory
membranes
of
aquatic
organisms.
These
chemicals
consist
primarily
of
surfactants
that
can
be
absorbed
through
respiratory
membranes
and
charged
polymers
that
cannot
be
absorbed.
SARs
have
been
developed
for
anionic
surfactants
such
as
linear
alkyl
benzene
sulfonates,
nonionic
surfactants
such
as
alcohol
ethoxylates
and
cationic
surfactants,
such
as
ethoxylated
beta­
amine
surfactants
(ethomeen)
and
linear
N­
alkyl
quaternary
ammonium
compounds.
The
SARs
for
surfactants
are
parabolic,
i.
e.,
toxicity
is
related
to
the
size
of
the
hydrophobic
component
in
a
parabolic
manner
when
the
size
of
the
hydrophilic
component
remains
constant.
The
size
of
the
hydrophobic
component,
usually
a
linear
alkyl
carbon
chain,
can
be
estimated
by
simply
counting
the
number
of
carbons
in
the
hydrophobic
alkyl
chain.
Maximum
toxicity
occurs
when
there
are
approximately
16
or
17
carbons
in
the
linear
alkyl
chain.
Toxicity
for
the
nonionic
surfactants
is
also
affected
by
the
number
of
ethoxylate
units
and
the
size
of
the
hydrophobe
and
the
number
of
ethoxy
groups
must
be
known
to
use
the
SAR.

Polycationic
polymers
include
those
with
primary,
secondary,
and
tertiary
amines
and/
or
quaternary
ammoniums,
phosphoniums,
and
sulfoniums.
The
molecular
descriptor
used
to
predict
toxicity
for
these
polymers
is
equivalent
charge
density
as
determined
from
chemical
structure,
i.
e.,
percent
amine­
nitrogen,
number
of
cationic
charges
per
1000
units
of
molecular
weight,
or
cation
equivalent
weight.
These
polymers
must
be
water
soluble
or
self­
dispersing
or
both.

Quantitative
SARs
have
not
been
developed
for
inorganic
compounds.
However,
in
lieu
of
such
equations,
water
quality
criteria
values
have
been
used
to
predict
their
toxicity.
Water
quality
criteria
have
been
developed
for
several
metals.
These
criteria
are
usually
indicative
of
the
lowest
concentration
that
is
believed
to
be
protective
of
aquatic
life
in
the
receiving
water.
Consequently,
most
criteria
are
expressed
only
for
acute
or
chronic
toxicity
to
freshwater
or
marine
organisms
in
general.
SAR
equations
will
eventually
be
developed
for
organometallics
based
on
their
Kow
values.

Some
chemical
classes
do
not
have
quantitative
SARs.
These
include
polyanionic
polymers,
cationic
dyes,
and
most
classes
of
pesticides.
Two
classes
of
polyanionic
polymers
are
known
to
be
toxic
to
aquatic
organisms;
polyaromatic
sulfonic
acids
are
moderately
toxic
to
aquatic
organisms;
and
polycarboxylic
acids
are
moderately
toxic
only
to
green
algae.
However,
the
high
molecular
weight
of
these
polymers
indicate
that
they
will
not
be
absorbed
through
the
surface
membranes
of
these
organisms
and
their
toxicity
is
the
result
of
their
surface
activity
and
is
not
correlated
with
their
anionic
charge
density.
Cationic
dyes
can
be
absorbed
and
are
known
to
be
highly
toxic
to
aquatic
organisms.
During
acute
exposure,
the
toxicity
of
these
dyes
is
believed
to
be
mostly
the
result
of
their
activity
on
the
surface
membrane
while
chronic
exposure
also
results
in
systemic
toxicity.
Dyes
with
delocalized
cationic
charges
may
be
more
toxic,
followed
by
dyes
with
four
localized
charges,
then
three
localized
charges,
etc.
Most
commercial
dyes
contain
impurities
which
may,
in
part,
be
responsible
for
some
of
the
toxic
effects
seen
in
these
dyes.
Acid
dyes
are
moderately
toxic
only
to
green
algae
which
results
more
from
shading
of
the
algae
by
the
dye
rather
than
from
direct
toxic
effects.
Data
on
which
to
validate
this
assumption
are
lacking
in
most
PMN
submissions.

How
SARs
Are
Developed
Work
sheets
were
developed
to
provide
pertinent
information
about
each
SAR,
especially
the
mathematical
procedures
for
calculating
toxicity
values
based
on
molecular
weight
and
Kow
.
Data
to
develop
3
new
SARs
are
entered
in
a
spreadsheet
that
allows
the
SAR
equations
to
be
calculated
based
on
a
measured
toxicity
values
(in
mmoles/
L)
and
an
estimated
Kow
.
Using
these
estimated
values,
regression
equations
can
be
developed
for
a
class
of
chemicals,
e.
g,
neutral
organics,
acrylates,
anionic
surfactants,
etc.
Toxicity
values
for
new
chemicals
may
then
be
calculated
by
inserting
the
estimated
Kow
into
the
regression
equation
and
correcting
the
resultant
values
for
the
molecular
weight
of
the
compound.

As
discussed
above,
the
mode
of
toxic
action
for
most
neutral
organics
appears
to
be
narcosis;
however,
some
organic
chemicals
have
a
more
specific
mode
of
toxicity
with
comparable
Kow
s
and
molecular
weights.
For
these
chemicals,
the
toxicity
is
also
related
to
the
Kow
and
as
the
Kow
decreases
(i.
e.,
as
the
chemicals
become
more
water
soluble),
the
amount
of
excess
toxicity
compared
to
neutral
organic
compounds
increases.
Consequently,
at
some
higher
Kow
the
toxicity
of
the
compound
is
not
significantly
different
from
the
toxicity
of
the
equivalent
neutral
organic.
For
organic
chemicals
which
haves
excess
toxicity
and
for
which
are
data
poor,
e.
g.,
amino
anilines,
a
neutral
organic
data
point
may
be
used
in
addition
to
the
measured
toxicity
value
to
give
a
regression
equation.
These
are
the
chemicals
that
have
a
N=
2
entry
under
statistics
but
show
only
one
chemical
in
the
list
of
chemicals
used
to
develop
the
SAR.
The
second
point
is
a
neutral
organic
Kow
value.
In
addition,
for
some
lists
of
chemicals
used
to
develop
the
SAR,
a
single
chemical
is
listed
more
than
once.
This
is
because
the
chemical
has
been
tested
more
than
once.
Each
toxicity
value
is
included
for
the
chemical
if
it
provides
a
reliable
data
point,
i.
e.,
if
a
second
study
confirmed
a
previously
derived
toxicity
value.

To
date,
over
100
SARs
have
been
developed
for
over
40
classes
of
organic
chemicals
(see
Table
1).
These
chemical
classes
include
neutral
organics,
surfactants,
polymers,
and
other
organic
compounds.
Most
of
the
SARs
are
for
acute
toxicity
to
fish
or
daphnids;
however,
acute
and
chronic
SARs
have
been
developed
for
other
organisms.
Some
classes,
such
as
acid
chlorides,
only
have
one
SAR
(e.
g.,

96­

),
while
for
other
classes
such
as
neutral
organics
more
than
10
SARs
have
been
developed
ranging
from
acute
and
chronic
SARs
for
fish
to
a
14­

for
earthworms
in
artificial
soil.
New
SARs
will
be
added
as
data
become
available.
This
manual
will
be
periodically
updated
to
reflect
the
additions.

Selecting
an
Appropriate
SAR
Selecting
the
appropriate
SAR
for
a
new
chemical
is
based
on
a
variety
of
chemical­
specific
information.
This
information
includes
the
exact
chemical
structure,
chemical
class,
predicted
Kow
,
molecular
weight
of
the
compound,
physical
state,
water
solubility,
number
of
carbons
or
ethoxylates
or
both,
and
percent
amine
nitrogen
or
number
of
cationic
charges
or
both,
per
1000
molecular
weight.
The
most
important
factor
for
deriving
a
SAR
is
the
chemical
class
as
SARs
are
chemical
class
specific.
An
alphabetical
listing
of
chemical
classes
and
appropriate
SARs
to
use
for
each
is
included
at
the
conclusion
of
this
section.

To
estimate
the
toxicity
to
aquatic
organisms
of
neutral,
nonreactive,
non­
ionizable
organics
and
organics
that
exhibit
excess
toxicity,
the
Kow
and
molecular
weight
are
required.
The
value
for
the
Kow
should
be
obtained
from
estimated
values
using
the
computer
program
CLOGP,
Version
3.3.
The
range
of
Kow
values
are
valid
to
estimate
the
toxicity
is
SAR
specific
and
is
given
for
each
SAR
in
a
chemical
class.
In
general,
when
the
log
Kow
is
less
than
or
equal
to
5.0,
valid
predictions
can
be
obtained
for
estimating
acute
toxicity
to
aquatic
organisms
from
neutral
organic
compounds.
If
the
log
Kow
is
greater
than
5.0,
the
decreased
solubility
of
a
compound
will
result
in
no
effects
in
a
saturated
solution
during
a
96­
hour
test
and
a
longer
exposure
duration
should
be
used
to
determine
the
LC50
.
For
chronic
exposures,
the
applicable
log
Kow
may
be
extended
up
to
8.0.
If
the
log
Kow
of
the
compound
exceeds
8.0,
no
adverse
effects
are

for

For
examples,
the
maximum
log
Kow
for

is
6.0
and

Using
SARs
All
SARs
contain
an
equation
that
predicts
the
aquatic
toxicity
of
a
chemical.
Most
of
the
SARs
require
the
user
to
know
the
predicted
log
of
the
octanol
water
partition
coefficient
(Kow).
When
this
number
is
entered
into
the
equation,
a
toxicity
values
in
millimoles/
L
(mM/
L)
is
derived.
The
molecular
weight
of
the
subject
compound
is
required
to
convert
the
SAR
estimates
from
millimoles/
L
to
mg/
L.
The
ECOSAR
program
does
this
automatically,
however,
manual
estimates
require
that
conversions
be
made.
For
example,
the
equation
for
predicting
the
fish
96­
hour
LC50
values
for
neutral
organics
is:

Using
1,1'­
biphenyl
(CASRN
[92­
52­
4]
as
a
representative
chemical,
the
estimated
log
Kow
for
this
compound
is
4.0,
to
give
a
log
LC50
of
­2.01.
Taking
the
antilog
of
­2.01,
gives
an
LC50
value
of
0.009
mM/
L.
However,
to
express
the
toxicity
of
the
1,1'­
biphenyl
as
mg/
L,
the
toxicity
must
be
multiplied
by
the
molecular
weight
of
the
compound
which
is
154.20,
to
give
a
final
toxicity
value
of
1.5
mg/
L.
Conversions
from
mM/
L
to
mg/
L
are
not
necessary
for
compounds
and
equations
(e.
g.,
surfactants,
polymers)
that
do
not
use
Kow
as
the
input
parameter
for
toxicity.

Molecular
weight
is
also
used
to
determine
the
absorption
cutoff
limit
for
aquatic
organisms.
As
the
molecular
weight
of
a
chemical
increases
above
600,
passive
absorption
through
respiratory
membranes
decreases
significantly.
Therefore,
for
chemicals
with
molecular
weights
above
1000,
it
has
been
assumed
that
such
absorption
is
negligible.
For
surface
active
chemicals
such
as
cationic
polymers,
molecular
weight
6
is
not
limiting
because
the
toxic
effect
is
not
due
to
absorption,
for
example,
some
polycationic
polymers
with
molecular
weights
in
excess
of
1,000,000
are
highly
toxic
to
aquatic
organisms.

An
important
aspect
of
determining
the
toxicity
of
a
compound
is
knowing
the
water
solubility.
The
water
solubility
of
a
compound
can
be
compared
with
the
SAR
toxicity
value
derived
for
that
compound.
If
the
toxicity
value
is
significantly
greater
than
the
measured
or
predicted
maximum
water
solubility,
then
an
effect
is
not
expected
to
occur
in
a
saturated
solution.
In
addition,
a
determination
of
the
physical
state
(liquid,
solid,
or
gas)
of
the
compound
is
helpful
in
selecting
an
SAR.
SARs
currently
used
by
EEB
were
developed
using
toxicity
data
on
chemicals
that
are
liquids
at
room
temperature
(25
EC).
If
an
organic
chemical
is
a
solid
at
room
temperature,
then
the
melting
point
should
be
known
because
of
the
effect
it
has
on
water
solubility,
i.
e.,
assuming
Kow
is
constant,
the
higher
the
melting
point
of
a
neutral
organic
chemical,
the
lower
its
water
solubility.
For
other
chemicals
such
as
surfactants,
water
dispersibility
is
used;
however,
for
practical
purposes,
water
solubility
and
dispersibility
are
considered
to
be
synonymous.

To
determine
the
toxicity
of
a
surfactant,
it
is
necessary
to
know
the
number
of
carbon
atoms
in
the
alkyl
chain
for
anionic
surfactants
or
the
number
of
ethoxylate
units
in
the
compound
if
it
is
an
cationic
(ethomeen)
or
nonionic
surfactant.
For
cationic
quaternary
ammonium
surfactants,
the
toxicity
is
based
on
the
average
length
of
a
linear
carbon
chain,
if
the
chain
length
is
between
10
and
24
carbons
long.
The
surfactant
SARs
developed
by
EEB
are
based
on
surfactants
where
the
hydrophobic
component
is
composed
of
a
single
linear
chain
of
carbons
and/
or
chains
of
ethoxylate
units.
Surfactants
that
have
complex
hydrophobic
components
are
assessed
by
calculating
the
Kow
of
the
complex
hydrophobic
component
alone
and
determining
which
aliphatic
alkyl
(carbon)
chain
has
an
equivalent
Kow
.
Toxicity
predictions
are
based
on
this
equivalent
chemical
structure.
See
the
SAR
for
cationic
dialkyl
quaternary
ammonium
surfactants
for
more
details
on
these
calculations.

For
polycationic
polymers,
it
is
necessary
to
calculate
the
percent
amine
nitrogen
and/
or
number
of
cationic
charges
per
1000
molecular
weight.

For
inorganic
and
organometallic
compounds,
only
the
molecular
weight
of
the
compound
is
used
for
calculating
the
toxicity
value.
Acute
and/
or
chronic
toxicity
values
will
be
expressed
in
mg/
L,
and
further
conversions
and/
or
calculations
are
not
necessary.

Reliability
of
SARs
As
may
be
seen
by
reviewing
the
chemicals
used
to
derive
the
individual
SARs
in
this
manual,
some
chemical
classes
have
a
greater
number
of
chemicals
with
accompanying
toxicity
values
than
do
others.
For
example,
the
neutral
organic
96­
hour
fish
LC50
SAR
was
based
on
toxicity
values
for
over
60
chemicals,
whereas,
the
fish
96­
hour
LC50
SAR
for
propargyl
alcohols
was
based
on
only
one
toxicity
value.
In
the
cases
where
there
is
only
one
toxicity
value
for
a
chemical
class,
the
SAR
is
based
on
the
line
drawn
between
the
one
toxicity
value
and
the
maximum
toxicity
value
of
a
neutral
organic
compound.
Obviously
SARs
developed
using
only
one
or
two
toxicity
values
taken
from
the
literature
or
premanufacture
notices
may
not
have
the
same
reliability
as
an
SAR
developed
from
a
larger
toxicity
database;
however,
on
a
regulatory
basis
this
is
the
best
estimate
that
can
be
scientifically
achieved.

To
determine
how
reliable
the
SARs
in
this
manual
are,
Nabholz
et
al.
(1993)
conducted
a
validation
study
which
compared
the
predicated
toxicity
values
of
chemicals
with
their
measured
toxicity
values.
Several
chemical
classes
were
included
in
the
study:
neutral
organics,
organic
chemicals
which
show
excess
toxicity
compared
with
neutral
organics
of
a
similar
structure,
anionic
surfactants,
cationic
surfactants,
polycationic
polymers,
cationic
dyes,
acid
dyes,
polyanionic
monomers
which
are
strong
chelators
of
nutrient
elements,
and
compounds
which
undergo
hydrolysis
(e.
g.,
acid
chlorides
and
alkyloxysilanes).
In
all,
test
data
from
462
chemicals
were
used
in
the
validation
study.
SARs
for
acute
and
chronic
toxicity
for
fish,
daphnids,
and
green
algae
were
reviewed.
Validation
was
expressed
as
a
ratio,
i.
e.,
predicted
toxicity:
measured
toxicity.
A
ratio
of
1.0
would
indicate
that
the
predictions
were
perfectly
accurate,
a
ratio
7
of
less
than
1.0
would
indicate
an
over­
prediction
of
toxicity,
and
a
ratio
of
more
than
1.0
would
indicate
that
SARs
were
under
predicting
the
toxicity
of
the
chemicals.
The
results
of
the
study
indicated
that
the
algal
chronic
effect
was
most
accurately
predicted
(ratio
1.07)
while
the
fish
chronic
value
was
the
least
reliable
(ration
0.24).
The
fish
96­
hour
LC50
ratio
was
0.64,
the
daphnid
48­
hour
LC50
was
0.79,
and
the
algae
96­
hour
EC50
was
0.81.
Work
on
validating
the
SARs
is
continuously
ongoing
in
EEB.

such
as
alcohol
ethoxlyate­

SURFACTANTS,

Limitations:
When
the
number
of
ethoxylates
is
less
than
5,
chemicals
may
begin
to
act
less
like
surfactants
and
more
like
neutral
organic
chemicals.
Alcohol
propoxylates
and
alcohol
butoxylates
will
not
act
like
surfactants;
the
propoxylate
and
butoxylate
units
are
not
water
soluble
enough.
Alcohol
propoxylates
and
alcohol
butoxylates
should
be
treated
like
neutral
organic
chemicals.

Application:
This
equation
may
be
used
to
estimate
the
toxicity
for
thiols
and
mercaptans.
Thiols
with
a
carboxylic
acid
substitution
will
be
about
10
times
less
toxic
than
the
toxicity
value
predicted
by
using
this
SAR
with
a
log
Kow
and
molecular
weight
for
the
free
acid.
Therefore,
for
thiols
with
a
carboxylic
acid
substitution,
predict
the
toxicity
values
for
the
free
acid
and
multiply
by
10.

Limitations:
For
thiols
with
log
Kow
values
greater
than
4.5,
the
toxicity
prediction
may
only
apply
to
rainbow
trout
and
other
cold
water
fish
species.
While
a
96­

LC50
value
was
measured
for
t­
dodecane
thiol
(log
Kow
=
6.2),
nonylthiol
(log
Kow
=
4.9)
showed
no
toxicity
at
saturation
with
fathead
minnows.
The
recommended
species
for
testing
thiols
with
log
Kow
values
greater
than
4.5
is
rainbow
trout
using
flow­
through
methods,
measured
concentrations,
and
treatment
concentrations
which
do
not
exceed
the
aqueous
solubility
limit
of
the
thiol
being
tested.

If
the
log
Kow
value
is
greater
than
6.5,
or
if
the
compound
is
solid
and
the
LC50
exceeds
the

use
SAR
with
longer
exposure.

NEUTRAL
ORGANICS;

This
category
includes
substituted
triazines
which
can
be
aromatic,
partially
aromatic
(or
partially
saturated),
and
unsaturated.
The
nitrogens
in
the
triazine
ring
may
be
symmetrical
or
asymmetrical.
Substitutions
on
the
carbons
may
include
but
not
be
limited
to:
aliphatic
alcohols;
ketones;
benzene
and
substituted
benzenes;
aliphatic
hydrocarbons,
alkyenes
and
alkynes;
free
amines
and
substituted
amines;
cyclic
aliphatic
hydrocarbons;
halogens;
amides;
cyanides;
ethers;
methoxy
groups;
sulfides;
azido
groups;
and
carboxylic
acid
esters.
Substitutions
on
the
nitrogens
may
include
but
not
be
limited
to:
free
amines
and
substituted
amines;
­N=
CH;
aliphatic
hydrocarbons,
alkyenes
and
alkynes;
and
benzene
and
substituted

Hazard
Concerns:
many
members
of
this
category
are
commercial
herbicides
which
are
used
to
control
both
aquatic
plants
and
terrestrial
plants.
Their
mode
of
toxic
action
is
generally
considered
to
be
inhibition
of
photosynthesis.
Many
members
of
this
class
are
toxic
to
algae
at
<
1
mg/
L
and
toxic
to
terrestrial
vascular
plants
at
<
1
mg/
kg.
Members
of
this
group
can
also
be
highly
toxic
to
fish
and
aquatic
invertebrates.
Toxicity
is
expected
to
be
related
to
the
octanol/
water
partition
coefficient
with
respect
to
fish
and
aquatic
invertebrates,
but
toxicity
to
plants
may
not
be
related
to
Kow
when
log
Kow
<
5.
When
the
log
Kow
is
<
5,
algae
and
terrestrial
plants
are
expected
to
be
the
most
sensitive
species.
As
log
Kow
increases,
species
differences
are
expected
to
diminish.
At
this
time
there
is
no
formalized
SAR
for
this
category
for
any
species.
Toxicity
predictions
will
be
made
using
either
the
closest
analog
or
averaging
data
for
the
two
closest
analogs
which
bracket
the
chemical
under
question.

Application:
This
equation
may
be
used
to
estimate
the
toxicity
of
both
organic
and
inorganic
compounds
containing
zirconium,
including
inorganic
salts
of
zirconium,
complexes
between
zirconium
and
organic
acids,
and
organozirconium
compounds,
i.
e.,
zirconium
covalently­
bonded
with
carbon.

Limitations:
This
equation
is
not
applicable
to
dyes
complexed
with
zirconium.
The
equation
is
based
on
available
toxicity
data
for
solution
of
moderate
hardness
(i.
e.,
150
mg/
L
as
CaCO3
).
Zirconium
is
more
toxic
in
soft
water
than
in
hard
water.
Acute
toxicity
to
fish
has
been
shown
to
increase
13
times
as
hardness
decreases
from
400.0
to
20
mg/
L.

Compounds
with
molecular
weights
greater
than
1000
are
not
expected
to
be
absorbed
by
aquatic
organisms
even
if
they
are
water
soluble.
