1.1.   STRUCTURE AND CAS NUNBER
    Toluenedlamlne  1s  the  commercial  mixture  composed  of   six  Isomers,
                                                                 r
2,4-toluened1am1ne,  2,6-toluened1am1ne.  2,3-toluened1am1ne,  3,4-toluened1a-
mlne,  2,5-toluened1am1ne  and  3,5-toluened1am1ne   (Mllllgan   and  Gilbert,
1978).  This hazard profile will address only  the commercial  mixture and the
four  Isomers:   2,5-toluened1am1ne,  3,4-toluened1am1ne,  2.6-toluenedlamlne
and 2.3-toluened1am1ne.
    The   molecular   formula    for   toluenedlamlne   and   Us   Isomers   1s
C H  N   and  the  molecular  weight  of  these  compounds  1s  122.2.   Tol-
uenedlamlne  (commercial mixture) 1s  also known as dlamlnotoluene and methyl-
phenylene  dlamlne  (NIOSH,  1978).   The  Chemical  Abstract  Service  (CAS)
Registry  Number  1s  25376-45-8.    The  structure,   CAS   numbers  and  common
synonyms  for the 4  Isomers  addressed  1n this  profile are  Included  1n Table
1-1.
    Toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  sulfate (CAS  No.  6369-59-1)  1s a salt  of  toluene-
2,5-d1am1ne  and  sulfuMc  add  and  1s used  In place of toluene-2.5-d1am1ne 1n
many  of  the studies  cited  1n  this  profile.   Both  compounds  are  used  1n
hair-dye formulations  (IARC. 1978).
1.2.   PHYSICAL  AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
    Some  of  the physical properties of  toluenedlamlne and  the 4 Isomers are
listed 1n Table  1-2.
1.3.   PRODUCTION  DATA
    The  toluenedlamlnes  are  prepared by  the   dlnltratlon  of  toluene, which
occurs  1n  two  stages.   Mononltratlon  occurs   In  a mixed  acid of  30% HN03
and  55%   H^SO.  at   30-70°C.    The  mononltrotoluenes   formed   are  then
             2   4
nitrated  with   SOX  HN03  and  63%  H2S04  to   yield  78%  2,4-.   19.5% 2,6-,

0.7X  2,5-,   1.5X  2,3- and  2.5X  3,4-dimtrotoluene  (MllUgan  and Gilbert,
1978).  These d1n1trotoluenes are  subsequently catalytlcally hydrogenated  to
the corresponding  toluenedlamlnes.
    The  commercial  mixture  of  toluenedlamlnes   and   the  four  Isomers are
produced by  a  number  of manufacturers  (Table  1-3).   The principal areas  of
production for  all  the compounds  are  Louisiana,  West  Virginia, New  Jersey,
Texas, Kentucky and New York (U.S.  EPA, 1983).
    Practically all the toluenedlamlne produced 1s captlvely consumed  In the
production of toluene dllsocyanate  (SRI, 1976).   In 1982, 695  million  pounds
of  toluene  dllsocyanate  were  produced  (SRI,  1983).   Some  toluenedlamlne
(unknown  amount)   Is   used  1n  manufacturing  polymers and  dyes  for  hair,
fabrics and fur (Thlrtle,  1968).

                2.  ENVIRONMENTAL FATE AND TRANSPORT PROCESSES
    Data  regarding  the  fate and  transport of  the  toluenedlamlnes  1n  the
environment are sparse.   Although  no data were available on  the  persistence
of these  compounds,  1t 1s expected  that  they may  undergo  rapid  transforma-
tion  1n  the environment  since  the  aromatic  amines are  relatively  reactive
compounds.
    The log octanol-water partition  coefficient for  each  of the 4 1soners 1s
<0.65  (see  Table  1-2)  and  the  log  BCF for  the  commercial  mixture  Is  1.96
(Mackay,  1982).   These  data  suggest  that  there 1s  little potential  for  bio-
accumulation  1n  aquatic  organisms.    Because  the  alkaline nature  of  these
compounds,  1t  1s  likely  that  they will react with adds  1n  the  aqueous or
soil  media  to  form salts.    Although no specific  data were  available,  the
fate and  transport  of  the compounds  1n these environments may then depend on
their  ability   to  dissolve  1n  water or  leach  through soil  columns.   Addi-
tional  data regarding the fate  and  transport of  the  toluenedlamlnes  In the
soil,  water or atmospheric  environments  were not  located 1n  the available
literature.

                                 3.   EXPOSURE
    Toluened1am1nes are  used  either  directly 1n hair dyes  as  color-yielding
compounds or as  chemical  Intermediates  1n the synthesis of  dllspcyanates  or
dyes; therefore,  exposure  to these  compounds  will  be greatest  in  the manu-
facturing facilities or from  consumer use  of products containing these dyes.
According  to  the  Federal  Register  (1982)  the  U.S. EPA  reported  that  -15
million  people   are  potentially  exposed  to the  toluenedlamlnes  and  other
phenyldlamlnes  as  a result  of  personal  use or 1n  the  application  of  hair
dyes  to  other  people  (47  PR  979).   Exposure may also result  from the manu-
facture  or  use  of  products  containing  these  chemicals.   Toluenedlamlne
concentrations  of  0.008-0.39 mg/m3  were measured  1n  the work  air of  an
Ol1n  Chemical   Company  manufacturing facility  (Ahrenholz,  1980).   Toluene-
2,6-d1am1ne  (an Intermediate 1n  the production of  toluened11socyanate)  was
detected  1n  aqueous extracts from food-packaging  products (boll-ln-bags  and
retortable  pouches) at  levels  ranging  from  <0.1-2.2   ppb  (Snyder  et  al..
1982).

                             4.  PHARMACOKINETICS
4.1.   ABSORPTION
    A  1.6X  aqueous  solution  of  [methyl-14C]-labeled  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne
hydrochlorlde (10 mg  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne) was administered  by  gavage  to  male
and  female  rats.  HHhln  24 hours, >70X  of  the administered  radioactivity
was  excreted  1n  the  urine and  <5X was excreted 1n the  feces  (Hruby,  1977).
These data  suggest  that  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne 1s  efficiently  absorbed  from the
gastrointestinal tract of rats following oral  administration.
     Hruby  (1977)  applied dermally  7.5 mg i«C-toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  (pH  10.1)
to  rats  and 1.4 g  l4C-toluene-2.5-d1am1ne  (pH  10.1) to dogs.   The  position
of  the   label was  as  noted  above  for the oral  experiments.   Approximately
0.2X of  the administered radioactivity was absorbed through the skin of rats
and  0.127% was   cutaneously  absorbed  In the  dog as Indicated  by  the amount
excreted  1n the  urine and feces plus the amount 1n the  total-body homogenate
(Hruby,  1977).
     About  40 mg  of  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne was absorbed through the skin of dogs
during  application  of   toluene-2,5-d1am1ne sulfate (1.4  g toluene-2,5-d1a-
mlne)  1n 50 ml  of a  lauryl  sulfate-based  gel (pH  9.5)  to  the hair  and skin
for  3  hours.  The amount of  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  absorbed decreased  to <3 mg
when 3%  hydrogen  peroxide  was  present 1n  the gel,  simulating hair-dyeing
conditions  (K1ese  et al., 1968).   Urinary excretion  data were used to esti-
mate absorption.
     Klese and  Rauscher  (1968)  found that  application  of  a hair dyeing pre-
paration containing  2.5 g  of  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  sulfate  and  2.5  g resor-
dnol  with  3X  hydrogen  peroxide (pH  9.5)  to   the hair and  scalp  of human
subjects for 40 minutes resulted In  the absorption  of -4.6 mg toluene-2,5-
dlamlne.   This  value was calculated from urinary excretion  data.

4.2.   DISTRIBUTION
    Hruby  (1977)   administered   by  gavage  a  1.6X  aqueous   solution   of
[methyl-14C]-labeled  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  hydrochlorlde containing  10 mg  of
                                                                 r
toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  to  rats  and  found  1.4 +  0.02X of the  radioactivity  1n
the  gastrointestinal  tract  and   1.2  + 0.08X  1n  the  total-body  homogenate
after  5  days.   Following  cutaneous application  of 7.5 rag  "C-toluene-2,5-
dlamlne  (pH   10.1)  to  rats,  -0.1X  of  the  radioactivity  was  found In  the
total-body homogenate and  -1.2%  remained  at the site  of application (Hruby,
1977).
4.3.   METABOLISM
    Following dermal  application  of  2.5 g of  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne sulfate  and
2.5 g  resordnol  with  hydrogen  peroxide  (pH  9.5)  to  humans, -3.7  mg  N,N'-
d1acetyl-p-toluened1am1ne  appeared  In the urine.   Following  subcutaneous
Injection  of  5.5 mg  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne,  47.6X  of the dose was excreted  as
N,N'-d1acetyl-p-toluened1am1ne  (-4.5  mg)   1n the  urine of humans  (K1ese  and
Rauscher,  1968).
4.4.   EXCRETION
    Excretion of  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  (or  metabolites)  1n  the urine of  dogs
and  rats  appears   to  occur  more  rapidly  and  extensively   following  oral,
subcutaneous  or  Intravenous  administration than  following  cutaneous applica-
tion  of  the  compound.   Excretion of  the  metabolite N,N'-d1acetyl-p-toluene-
dlamlne  1n  humans  occurs  slowly  whether toluene-2,5-d1am1ne Is  applied
dermally or Injected  subcutaneously.
    Following  administration  by gavage   of  a  1.6X  aqueous  solution  of
»«C-toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  hydrochlorlde (10  mg  toluene-2.5-d1am1ne)  to  rats,
>70X  of  the  radioactivity was excreted 1n  the urine  and  <5X was excreted 1n
the  feces  within 24 hours.  Excretion of  the  radioactivity  1n the urine and
feces  was  essentially complete within 5 days (Hruby. 1977).

-------
    Cutaneous  application  of  7.5 mg  l4C-toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  (pH  10.1)  to
rats resulted 1n 0.08-0.14X of  the radioactivity being  excreted 1n  the urine
and 0.004X  excreted  In the feces  within  24 hours  (Hruby,  1977).   Following
dermal application of  1.4 g  l4C-toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  (pH  10.1) "to  dogs,  the
amount of radioactivity excreted  In  the urine  and  feces over  4 days totalled
0.092i0.009X and 0.840+0.10X,  respectively,  of  the administered dose  (Hruby,
1977).
    Approximately 0.41  mg of  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  was excreted 1n  the urine
within  24  hours  after  application  of  1.4  g  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne (as  the
sulfate; pH 9.5) to  the  skin  of dogs.   The urine collected on the second day
contained nearly 0.1 mg and  traces  of toluene-2,5-d1am1ne were  detected  1n
the urine on the third day (K1ese et al.,  1968).
    Following application  of  hair-dye  preparations containing 2.5 g toluene-
2,5-d1am1ne  sulfate  and  2.5  g  resordnol  with  3X  hydrogen peroxide (pH 9.5)
to  humans,   3661  vg of  N,N'-d1acetyl-p-toluened1am1ne was excreted  In  the
urine within 48 hours  (K1ese and Rauscher, 1968).
    Following  Intravenous  administration  of  0.14  g  [methyl-14C]-labeled
toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  to dogs,  total amounts  of  radioactivity  excreted  1n the
urine and feces  were  60+8.OX and 19+4.0% of  the  administered dose,  respec-
tively.   The majority of  the  4-day excretion occurred within  the first  24
hours (Hruby, 1977).
    Subcutaneous  Injection of  a 0.4X  aqueous solution  of 14C-toluene-2,5-
dlamlne   (containing  3-5  mg   of  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  and  labeled   1n  the
position  described  above)  resulted  1n   -67X  of  the radioactivity being
excreted  1n the  urine and <5X  being excreted  1n the feces of rats within 24
hours (Hruby.  1977).

    Following the  subcutaneous  Injection  of 5.54 mg  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  (as

                                 5.   EFFECTS
5.1.   CARCIMOGEN1CITY
    A  dietary  cardnogenlclty  bloassay  of  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne rsulfate was
conducted  by  the  National  Cancer Institute  (NCI,  1978)  using'Fischer 344
rats and B6C3F1 mice.  Fifty animals of each  sex and  species  were maintained
on  diets  containing TWA concentrations of 0.  0.06 or 0.2%  for  rats and  0,
0.06  or  0.10%  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  sulfate  for  mice  for   78  weeks.    No
statistically  significant  change 1n the  Incidences  of tumors were  observed
1n  either  male  or  female mice or rats under  the conditions of this  bloassay
(NCI, 1978).
    Sufficient  evidence  was  not obtained to  demonstrate  the  cardnogenldty
of  toluene-2,6-d1am1ne dihydrochlorlde 1n rats and mice  (NCI,  1980).   Groups
of  50  rats  of  each  sex were  fed  diets  containing  0,  50.   250  or 500 ppm
toluene-2,6-d1am1ne dihydrochlorlde  for  103  weeks  and observed for  an  addi-
tional  week.   Similarly,  50  mice of  each  sex  were  fed  0.  50  or 100 ppm
toluene-2,6-d1am1ne dihydrochlorlde  for  103  weeks (NCI,  1978).  A  statisti-
cally  significant  Increase In Interstitial-cell  neoplasms of the  testes was
observed  1n  rats,  but this was  not  considered treatment-related since  these
neoplasms  are  common  1n rats  and have a  highly  variable Incidence.   Conclu-
sive evidence  of a carcinogenic  effect of  toluene-2,6-d1am1ne  hydrochloMde
for mice or rats was not provided under the conditions of this bloassay.
    Fifty  male and  50  female  Swiss Webster mice received  weekly  or  fort-
nightly  dermal  applications  for  18  months of 0.05 ml hair-dye  preparations
(1  volume of  3%  toluene-2.5-d1am1ne  sulfate  and  1.5%  p-phenyld1am1ne  with
either  0.2% toluene-2.4-d1am1ne. 0.38%  2,4-d1am1noan1sole sulfate  or  0.17%
M-phenylene-dlamlne  mixed with  an  equal volume  of  6%  hydrogen  peroxide)
(Burnett  et  al.,  1975).  No  statistically significant  Increase  In  the

Incidences  of  lung  tumors  was  observed  1n the  test  animals when  compared
with  the controls.   Limited  data  were available  from a  similar  study  1n
which  28 male and  28 female  Swiss Webster  mice were dermally .treated  once
                                                                 r
weekly  for  an  unspecified  period of  time  with  0.05 ma  of  a  hair-dye
formulation  (1  volume of  3X  toluene-2.5-d1am1ne sulfate,  1.5X p-phenylene-
dlamlne  and  either  0.2  or  0.6X  toluene-2,4-d1am1ne  mixed with  an  equal
volume of  6% hydrogen peroxide)  (Giles et  al.,  1976).   Data  from this study
were deemed  Inadequate for  the evaluation  of the cardnogenlclty of toluene-
2t5-d1am1ne  sulfate  (IARC.  1978).
    Klnkel  and Holzman  (1973) tested  three hair-dye preparations  (1  volume
of  0,  3  or 4% toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  mixed with  an equal  volume of 6% hydrogen
peroxide).   Fifty  male   and  50 female  Sprague-Oawley  rats were  dermally
treated  twice weekly  with  0.5  ml  for 2  years.   No  statistically signif-
icant  differences  were observed 1n  tumor  Incidences between  the experimental
and control  group.
5.2.   HUTAGENICITY
    Many mutagenldty bloassays  of toluene-2,5-d1am1ne, toluene-2,6-d1am1ne
and  toluene-3,4-d1am1ne  have been conducted using a variety  of test systems.
These  studies  are  summarized In  Tables  5-1,  5-2  and 5-3.
    Toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  gave  positive  results  1n  the Salmonella  typhlmurlum
(strain  TA1538)  reverse  mutation assay, but only  when  assayed with a mamma-
lian  metabolic activation  system (rat  liver S-9)  (Ames  et al., 1975).  This
compound was  also  positive  In  the  transformation  assay  with  primary and
secondary  hamster  embryo  cells (NEC),  before  and  after   the  addition  of
Simian  Adenovlrus  (SA7)  (Greene and  Friedman,  1980).   Toluene-2,5-d1am1ne
sulfate  was Inactive In  the in  vivo mlcronucleus test with rats  (Hossack and
Richardson,  1977), but  exhibited a positive, dose-related response  1n the In
vivo  testlcular  DNA synthesis  bloassay  with mice (Greene et al.,  1981).

    Toluene-2,6-d1am1ne was  positive 1n  the  Salmonella  typhlmurlum  reverse
mutation assay with  strains  TA98 and TA100, but only  1n  the  presence of  S-9
(Florin et al., 1980).  This  compound produced  negative  responses  In  the  ONA
                                                                 r
repair  assay  with rats  (M1rsal1s  et al.,  1982),  and  1n the  testlcular  DNA
synthesis  assay  with  mice  (Greene  et  al.,  1981).   Positive results  were
obtained  1n  the  transformation  assay  of  primary  and  secondary HEC  both
before and after the addition of SA7 (Greene and Friedman, 1980).
    Toluene-3,4-d1am1ne produced  negative responses In  the  reverse mutation
assay  using four strains  of Salmonella  typhlmurlum.  both with  and  without
S-9  (Florin  et  al.,  1980).   Positive  responses  were  obtained  with  this

5.3.    TERATOGENICITY
     In  experiments  with  JCLrddn mice,   Inouye  and  Murakami  (1977) found
skeletal  malformations  1n  20/109  (18X)  fetuses  from  dams   treated  with  a
single  subcutaneous  Injection  of 50 mg/kg toluene-2,5-d1am1ne dlhydrochlo-
rlde  on the 8th  day  of pregnancy.   Skeletal malformations were also  observed
1n 7/20 (35X)  fetuses  from dams treated with a single subcutaneous Injection
of 75  mg/kg and  1n  17/38   (45X) fetuses  from dams  treated with 50 mg/kg
toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  dlhydrochlorlde Intraperltoneally   on  the  8th   day  of
pregnancy.   Similar  abnormalities  were  found 1n  four  fetuses  from  dams
treated with a 50 mg/kg subcutaneous Injection on days  7 and  9 of pregnancy.
Statistical analyses of  these  data  were  not  provided;  however,   no  skeletal
malformations  were  observed  1n  the   132  fetuses  examined   1n  the   control
group.   Other effects  observed Included an  Increased Incidence  of  dead  and
resorbed fetuses and  maternal  deaths  1n dams treated  with  subcutaneous  or

IntraperUoneal  doses of 75 and  50 mg/kg  toluene-2.5-d1am1ne dlhydrochlorlde
on day 8 of pregnancy (Inouye  and Murakami,  1977).
    Marks  et  al.  (1981) found  no teratogenU effects  1n CD-I mice  treated
dally with IntraperHoneal  Injections of  16, 32, 48 or  64 mg/kg-toluene-2,5-
dlamlne sulfate on days 6-15  of  gestation.  At doses  of  64 and 48  mg/kg/day,
Increased  Incidences  (4/31   and 9/11)   of  maternal  deaths  were  observed
compared with 0/31 for  the control group.   Average fetal  weight  decreased  as
the dose Increased, and at dosages of  32, 48  and  64  mg/kg/day, a significant
(P<0.05) decline 1n fetal  weights was observed (Harks  et al.,  1981).
    A  hair-dye  preparation   containing  3X  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  sulfate,  4X
2,4-d1am1noan1sole  sulfate  and  2X  p-phenylened1am1ne  mixed  with an  equal
volume of  6X  hydrogen peroxide was  tested  for teratogenldty  1n 20  pregnant
Charles  River CO  rats  (Burnett  et  al.,   1976).  The  formulation was  applied
to  the skin at a dose of  2  ml/kg  on days 1,  4,  7,  10,  13, 16 and  19  of
gestation.   Skeletal  abnormalities  were  observed  1n  6/169  fetuses;  this
Incidence  was statistically significantly different  from Incidences  In three
control  groups.   When a group of 20 female rats was  treated as  above with a
hair  dye preparation containing 6X toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  sulfate,  no  signif-
icant  Increase  1n skeletal  abnormalities was found 1n  fetuses when  compared
with controls (Burnett et al.. 1976).

    No overt  signs  of  toxldty or  h1stopatholog1c   changes attributable  to
treatment  were  observed   1n   Fischer  344  rats  and  B6C3F1 mice  fed  diets

toluene-2,5-d1am1ne sulfate, respectively, for 78 weeks  (NCI,  1978).   Exper-
imental details were described  1n Section  5.1.   Survival  was  not  affected by
treatment.   High-dose  females   of   both   species  had  slightly  lower  body
weights than did controls during the study.
    No  toxic  effects  were  observed from  the  chronic  feeding of  diets  con-
taining 250 or  500 ppm, and 50  or  100 ppm toluene-2,6-d1am1ne dlhydrochlor-
Ide to  F344 rats  and  B6C3F1  mice,  respectively,  for  103 weeks' (NCI. 1980) as
described  1n   Section   5.1.   Slight,  dose-related  depression  of  mean  body
weights occurred  1n  the treated female rats during  the  study.  Survival was
unaffected In both species.
    In  the  subchronlc   feeding study  on  toluene-2,6-d1am1ne (NCI,  1980),
groups  of  10  male and  10 female F344  rats of  each sex  were fed 0. 100.  300,
1000,  3000 or  10,000  ppm  of  the  compound  In the  diet  for  91  days.   Body
weight  gain was  depressed  1n males  at all doses  and 1n females at >1000 ppm.
At  10.000  ppm.  2 of  10  males and 7 of 10 females died; no deaths occurred 1n
any other  group.   At  3000 ppm,  diffuse  bilateral  adenomatous hyperplasla of
the thyroid occurred  1n the males,  and at 10,000 ppm, nephrosls, bone marrow
hyperplasla and  thyroid hyperplasla  occurred  1n  both  sexes.  Groups  of 10
male  and  10 female B6C3F1  mice fed  the  same  dietary  levels of  toluene-2,6-
dlamlne as 1n  the experiment with  rats  had weight gain  depression  at  >300
ppm  and renal  hyperplgmentatlon 1n a  few animals  at 1000  ppm (NCI. 1980).
No deaths  occurred at any dose  level and no  other effects were noted.
    No  signs  of  toxIcUy  were  observed  In  50  male and  50  female  Swiss
Webster mice  treated dermally  once a week  or once  every  other  week for 18
months  with 0.05 ml of  a  hair-dye  formulation containing  1 volume  of 3%
toluene-2.5-d1am1ne sulfate  mixed  with an equal  volume of 6X  hydrogen perox-
ide (Burnett et  al..  1975).

3X  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  sulfate mixed  with an  equal volume  of 6X hydrogen
peroxide were  applied  to  the skin of  50  male  and  50  female Sprague-Dawley
rats  twice  weekly for  2 years  (Klnkel and Holzmann, 1973).   No differences
were  observed  1n behavior,  feeding,  body-weight gain,  hematological  param-
eters,  mean Hfespan,  mortality  or  liver  function (serum  transamlnase and
bromosulfthaleln  secretion).   No  pathologic   changes  were  observed  at

                             - rabbit:  100 mg/kg

    The  oral   LD_Q  of   toluene-2,5-d1am1ne   sulfate   1n   an  o1l-1n-water
emulsion 1n rats was reported  as  98 mg/kg;  the  1ntraper1toneal  LD,..  of the
compound 1n dimethylsulfoxide 1n rats was 49 mg/kg  (Burnett et al.. 1977).
    Female  Sprague-Dawley  rats  receiving  33.3  or   50  mg/100 g  body  weight
toluene-3,4-d1am1ne  by  gavage  twice  dally  for  5 days developed duodenal
ulcers  (Selye,  1973; Selye and Mecs,  1974).   Single subcutaneous  Injections
of  62.5-500 mg/kg toluene-3,4-d1am1ne to  male and female Sprague-Dawley rats
resulted 1n gastric and duodenal lesions (Perkins and Greene,  1975).

6.1.   ACUTE TOXICITY
    The effects  of  toluene-2,3-d1am1ne  were determined on  gupples,  PoeclHa
retlculata. and  the  water  flea,  Daphnla maqna (Crustacea)  (Smlrnova et  al.,
1967).  Data  available  1n the abstract  of  this  Russian  study  Indicate  that
exposure  to  200  mg  toluene-2,3-d1am1ne/i  (time  unspecified)   caused  no
observable  effects  on P.  retlculata.   Daphnla were more sensitive, with  a
toxlclty  threshold  at  2  and   5  mg/a  causing  death  after  510  days  of
exposure.

                             6.   RISK  ASSESSMENT
    Toluene-2,5-d1am1ne sulfate  was   tested  for  cardnogenldty  by  the NCI
(1978), Klnkel and  Holzmann (1973),   Burnett et  al.  (1975)  and Giles et al.
(1976).  No  carcinogenic  effects were seen  In  rats  administered 0, 0.06  or
0.2% and  1n  mice administered 0,  0.06  or 0.10X toluene-2.5-d1am1ne sulfate
1n the diets for 78 weeks  (NCI,  1978).   No  carcinogenic  effects  were seen  1n
mice or rats receiving dermal applications  of  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne sulfate  1n
hair-dye preparations  (Burnett et  al.,  1975; Giles et al.,  1976; Klnkel and
Holzman,  1973).   Sufficient  evidence was  not obtained  to demonstrate  the
cardnogenldty  of  toluene-2,6-d1am1ne  dlhydrochlorlde  In  rats  fed 50,  250
or 500  ppm or  1n mice fed 50 or  100  ppm of  the compound  1n  the  diet for  103
weeks (NCI, 1980).
    Toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  produced  positive   results   1n   a  reverse  mutation
assay   with   S.   typh1mur1um  TA1538  (Ames   et  al.,   1975)   and  1n  the
transformation assay  with hamster embryo cells  (Greene  and  Friedman,  1980).
negative  results 1n the in  vivo mlcronucleus  assay with rats,  and  positive
results  1n  the  l£  vivo  testlcular ONA  synthesis assay  with mice  (Greene  et
al., 1981).
    Toluene-2,6-d1am1ne  gave positive  results were  obtained with  toluene-
2,5-d1am1ne  1n a reverse  mutation assay  with two strains (TA98 and TA100)  of
S.  typhlmurlum  (Florin et  al.,   1980) and  1n the transformation assay with
hamster  embryo  cells  (Greene and Friedman.  1980).   Negative  results were
obtained  1n  the  In. vivo DNA repair  assay  (H1rsal1s  et al.. 1982) and  the
testlcular DNA synthesis assay (Greene et al.. 1981).
    Toluene-2,5-d1am1ne   sulfate  and   toluene-2,6-d1am1ne   dlhydrochlorlde
failed  to  demonstrate  oncogenlc  activity 1n rats or  mice fed these compounds
1n  the  diet;  however,  positive  results were obtained  from  both of  these
compounds  In In vitro mutagenlclty  assays  with bacteria and  hamster  embryo

cells.  Although  these compounds  exhibited positive  mutagenlc  activity  1n
two test systems,  the  lack of conclusive evidence for  the  tumoMgenlclty  of
toluene-2,5-d1am1ne sulfate and  toluene-2,6-d1am1ne  dlhydrochlorlde  preclude
the classification of these compounds as carcinogens.
    Toluene-3,4-d1am1ne produced negative  results   In  the reverse  mutation
assay with four strains of  S.  typhlmurlum bacteria  (Florin  et al.,  1980) and
positive  results   1n   the   transformation  assay  with   hamster  embryo  cells
(Greene and  Friedman,  1980) and  the in vivo testlcular  DNA  synthesis  assay
(Greene et al., 1981).
    At  dose  levels  of 50  and 75 mg/kg  administered  subcutaneously and  50
mg/kg administered 1ntraper1toneally  to mice on  day  8  of gestation,  toluene-
2,5-d1am1ne  dlhydrochlorlde   Induced  skeletal  malformations   1n   fetuses
(Inouye and  Murakami,  1977).   At  dose  levels  of 16.  32. 48 or  64  mg/kg  of
toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  sulfate administered  1ntraper1toneally  to mice  on  days
6-15  of  gestation, no teratogenlc effects  were  observed.  Maternal  toxldty
was  observed at the 64 and 48 mg/kg doses; fetal weight decreased  at  doses
of  32,  48  and 64  mg/kg/day   (Marks  et  al.. 1981).   Skeletal  abnormalities
were  observed  1n  the offspring  of  pregnant  rats  dermally  treated  with
hair-dye  preparations  containing a  1:1  mixture  of  3X toluene-2,5-d1am1ne
sulfate  and 6X  hydrogen   peroxide  on days  1.  4,  7.  10.  13.  16 and  19  of
gestation  (Burnett  et al..   1976).   No   significant  Increases  1n  skeletal
abnormalities  were observed 1n  fetuses whose  mothers  had  been  treated  In a
similar manner with  a hair-dye preparation containing 6X toluene-2,5-d1am1ne
sulfate (Burnett et al.. 1976).
    There  1s little  Information  regarding the  effects  of chronic exposure to
toluenedlamlne or  the  four specified Isomers.  The chronic  dietary studies
of  the  NCI  (1978,  1980)  appear  to  Identify NOAELs  In  rats  of  2000 ppm  for


0502p                                -24-                            04/27/84

toluene-2,5-d1am1ne sulfate and  500  ppm for toluene 2,6-d1am1ne  hydrochlor-
1de, as weight gain depression was observed  In  females  at  these dose  levels,
but no  overt  signs of  toxlclty or  hlstopathologlc  changes attributable  to
treatment were found.
    Using the NOAEL  of  500 ppm  toluene-2,6-d1am1ne dlhydrochlorlde In  rats,
derived from  the  NCI  (1980)  study, an ADI value can be  derived.   In  lieu  of
food  consumption  data,   the  assumption must be made that  a  rat  consumes  a
dally  amount  of  food  equivalent  to  5X  of  Us  body  weight.   Using  this
assumption,  an  equivalent  dose  of 25.0  mg/kg/day  can be  calculated.   Since
these   data   are  for   the   dlhydrochlorlde   salt  of   toluene-2,6-d1am1ne
{HH=195.10),  an  equivalent  dose of   15.7  mg/kg/day for  toluene-2,6-d1am1ne
(MVM22.2) must  be used to  calculate an ADI.   An  ADI  value of  11.0 mg/day
for a 70 kg  human can  be calculated by multiplying  the animal  dose  by  an
assumed  human body weight of  70  kg and applying  an uncertainty  factor  of
100,  to convert  from experimental  animal data  to  human data,  and to  protect
the more sensitive Individuals of a population.
    The  subchronlc  feeding study by  the NCI  (1980)  provides  additional data
that  can contribute  to the  Identification of  a  threshold for  toxlclty  of
this  chemical to  rats.   This  study  appears to define  a NOAEL  In rats for
toluene-2,6-d1am1ne  at   1000  ppm.  Although body weight  gain  was depressed,
no  significant  adverse  effects were  observed at this dietary level.  Thyroid
hyperplasla was  observed at  3000 ppm and frank toxic effects,  Including high
mortality, occurred  at  10,000 ppm.  The NOAEL of 1000 ppm  supports the NOAEL
of  500  ppm   previously  Identified  In  the  chronic  study  (NCI,  1980).  The
NOAEL  of  500  ppm was  deemed  more appropriate  for  derivation of  an ADI
because of   the  greater  number  of  animals  and  extended  exposure   1n the
chronic study.

    The ADI values  for  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne  sulfate can be calculated  1n  the
same manner, using  the  NOAEL of 2000 ppm Identified  1n  the  dietary  study 1n
rats  (NCI,  1978).   Assuming  that  a rat  consumes  a dally  amount  of  food
equivalent to 5X of  Us  body weight,  an  equivalent dose  of 100 mg/kg/day can
be calculated.  The  corresponding dose for  toluene-2,5-d1am1ne (the  data  are
for  the  sulfate  salt of  the  compound,  molecular  weight of  220)  Is  55.5
mg/kg/day.  An ADI value of  38.9 mg/day  can be calculated by multiplying the
animal dose by  an  assumed  human body weight of  70 kg and applying an  uncer-
tainty factor of 100.
