- Endpoint:
- adsorption / desorption: screening
- Type of information:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Justification for type of information:
- REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
In this justification, the read-across (bridging) concept is applied. Please refer to a full version of Read-across statement attached in the section 13 "Assessment reports".
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
The underlying hypothesis for the read-across is that the target and the source substance have similar toxicological properties (including the same target organs) due to their structural similarity, resemblance to their chemical reactivity, and therefore a similar mode of action.
The source substance 1,4-diisopropylbenzene is a structural isomer of the target substance 1,3- diisopropylbenzene. The only difference between the target and this source substance is the position of the two isopropyl groups. While for 1,4-diisopropylbenzene both isopropyl groups are in para position at the benzene ring for 1,3-diisopropylbenzene they are in meta position.
The justification is based on similarity of chemical structure, physical-chemical properties and toxicokinetic behavior. As a conclusion, it is scientifically justified to address the endpoint Adsorption / desorption with data on this substance.
2. SOURCE AND TARGET CHEMICAL(S) (INCLUDING INFORMATION ON PURITY AND IMPURITIES)
source substance: 1,4-diisopropylbenzene (or p-DIPB)
structural formula: C12H18
Smiles: CC(C)c1ccc(cc1)C(C)C
Molecular weight: 162
CAS 100-18-5
EC No 202-826-9
purity: not specified
target substance: 1.3-diisopropylbenzene (or m-DIPB)
structural formula: C12H18
Smiles: CC(C)c1cccc(c1)C(C)C
Molecular weight: 162 g/mol
CAS 99-62-7
EC No 202-773-1
purity: not specified
No additional information is available on purity of the source and the target substances. Both substances are normally of high purity, containing only minor amounts of impurities that do not influence the read-across validity.

Reference
The retention times, capacity factors and logio Koc values determined for the sample are shown in the following table:
Peak | Retention time (mins) | Capacity factor (k) | Log10 k | Log10 Koc | ||
injection 1 | injection 2 | Mean | ||||

Log10 Koc : 3.80
Adsorption coefficient: 6.28* 103
Discussion
The mobile phase was used at an approximately neutral pH as the test item had no dissociation constants within the environmentally relevant pH range.

Additional information
The adsorption coefficient (Koc) of p-diisopropylbenzene, a close analogue of m-diisopropylbenzene has been determined in a study according to EU Method C.19 (Estimation of the Adsorption Coefficient (KOC) on Soil and Sewage Sludge Using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)). The mobile phase was used at an approximately neutral pH as the test item had no dissociation constants within the environmentally relevant pH range.
The adsorption coefficient (Koc) of the test item has been determined to be 6.28 x 10E3, log10 Koc 3.80.
