چکیده

Our studies using 3,4-dichlorobenzenethiol as a probe for methylating agent production during exposure of /v-nitrosodimethylamine to rat liver S-9 preparations produced results dif ferent from those of an investigation reported in the literature. Methyl-3,4-dichlorophenyl thioether was detected, but the quan tities found were not significantly different from the background levels of methylation product detected in the absence of nitrosamine. Only about 10% of the thioether isolated after incubating A/-nitrosodi[14C]methylamine as substrate was radioactive. The results indicate that the majority of the methyl groups transferred to the sulfur nucleophile in our experiments came from compo nents of the incubation mixture other than the nitrosamine. Some artifactual methylation was also associated with the analytical procedure. We conclude that 3,4-dichlorobenzenethiol should be used with caution in studies of alkylation during the in vitro metabolism of carcinogenic nitrosamines.

Use of 3,4-dichlorobenzenethiol as a trapping agent for alkylating intermediates during in vitro metabolism of nitrosamines.

Our studies using 3,4-dichlorobenzenethiol as a probe for methylating agent production during exposure of N-nitrosodimethylamine to rat liver S-9 preparations produced results different from those of an investigation reported in the literature. Methyl-3,4-dichlorophenyl thioether was detected, but the quantities found were not significantly different from the background levels of methylation pr...

Novel Cationic Dye Based on Naphthalimide: Part 1: Synthesis, Characterization and Evaluation of Biology Efficacy as Antimicrobial Agent

In this paper, synthesis and antimicrobial properties of cationic dye were investigated. 4-acetylamino-N-2-aminomethylpyridine-1,8-naphthalimide was reacted with 1-bromobutane as the alkylating agent and a cationic dye was obtained. The final product was purified by column chromatography method. The chemical structure of the novel cationic dye and its intermediates was chracterisized by using F...

Letter: In vitro detection of nitrosamines and other indirect alkylating agents by reaction with 3,4-dichlorothiophenol in the presence of rat liver microsomes.

A new method for the detection of indirect alkylating agents, such as the nitrosamines, using 3,4-dichlorothiophenol as t rapping agent in the presence of rat liver microsomes is reported. 3,4-Dichlorophenyl alkyl thioethers thus formed dur ing the incubation are detected by the use of a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry combinat ion unit and are quanti f ied by use of external standards.

Topanol A as an Antioxidant for Jet Fuel: Preparation and Application

Topanol A is a phenolic antioxidant additive, which is used in storage tanks for jet fuels produced in the petroleum refineries throughout the country. Topanol A mostly consists of 2,6-di-t-butylphenol. The conventional methods for the preparation of this compound involve ortho-alkylation of phenol using 2-methylpropene (isobutylene) as the alkylating agent. The compound has been prepared by or...
