About
Mesyloxybenzyl Methoxyethyl Chlorobenzamide is a cosmetic ingredient. Mesyloxybenzyl Methoxyethyl Chlorobenzamide is the organic compound. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Mesyloxybenzyl Methoxyethyl Chlorobenzamide is a substituted benzamide bearing a mesylate (mesyloxy) leaving group, a chlorophenyl ring, and a methoxyethyl substituent. Its GHS hazard classification (H315 skin irritation, H319 eye irritation, H335 respiratory irritation) indicates significant irritation potential upon direct contact. The mesylate group may act as a leaving group in metabolic conditions, raising additional concern for skin permeation and covalent protein binding (potential sensitizer). Not listed in EU Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 with any authorization, suggesting it lacks confirmed cosmetic safety.
Known concerns
- H315 skin irritation — risk from skin contact
- H319 serious eye irritation
- H335 may cause respiratory irritation
- Mesylate leaving group raises sensitisation concern
- Not authorized in EU cosmetics
