Fifty-three cosmetic products containing one or more of the ingredients N,N-dimethyloctadecylamine oxide, N,N-dimethyloctadecylamine and N-benzyl-N,N-dimethyloctadecylammonium chloride were analysed for N-nitroso-N-methyloctadecylamine by gas chromatography with detection by a Thermal Energy Analyzer. [1-14C]N-Nitroso-N-methyloctadecylamine was used as an internal standard. Eight of 11 products...

Synthetic efforts targeting highly symmetrical metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have always been relentless, for the symmetry of a MOF’s pore environment and overall crystal structure are relevant to properties behavior. Herein, we report novel Th-based MOF constructed from assembling Th-oxo clusters via in situ reductive coupling nitroso groups on cluster surface. Nitroso long known dimerize re...

Eleven household dishwashing liquids and four household surface cleaners were analysed for N-nitroso-N-methyldodecylamine and N-nitroso-N-methyltetradecylamine by gas chromatography with detection using a Thermal Energy Analyzer. Both nitrosamines were found in three of the dishwashing detergents and one of the surface cleaners. [1-14C]-N-Nitroso-N-methyldodecylamine was used to determine recov...

The incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma is increasing rapidly. In rats, surgically induced duodenoesophageal reflux is carcinogenic. One proposed mechanism of carcinogenesis is based on the reaction of physiological bile acids with nitrite to produce carcinogenic N:-nitroso amides. To test this hypothesis, duodenal juice was analyzed for endogenously formed N:-nitroso bile acids and its geno...

А para-chlorophenyl substituent was firstly obtained into the structure of pyridyl-substituted 4-nitrosopyrazole by cyclocondensation hydrazine hydrate with corresponding isonitroso-β-dicarbonyl compounds. The previously unknown 3(5)-(4-chlorophenyl)-5(3)-pyridine-(3(4))-yl-4-nitroso-1H-pyrazoles and 3(5)-alkyl(aryl)-5(3)-pyridine-(3(4))-yl-4-nitroso-1H-pyrazoles is proved studied in detail mod...

Recent evidence suggests that sulfhydryl species can react with oxides of nitrogen under physiologic conditions and thereby stabilize endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) activity, but the presence of a specific in vivo thiol carrier for nitric oxide (NO) remains controversial. The single free sulfhydryl of serum albumin is the most abundant thiol species in plasma (approximately 0.5 mM) ...

BACKGROUND N-Nitroso compounds are thought to play a significant role in the development of gastric cancer. Epidemiological data, however, are sparse in examining the associations between biomarkers of exposure to N-nitroso compounds and the risk of gastric cancer. METHODS A nested case-control study within a prospective cohort of 18,244 middle-aged and older men in Shanghai, China, was condu...

The structures of ferroverdins B and C, novel inhibitors of cholesteryl ester transfer protein, were elucidated by spectroscopic studies including various NMR measurements. They are the complex between one Fe2+ and three ligands, that is, two common p-vinylphenyl-3-nitroso-4-hydroxybenzoates and one hydroxy p-vinylphenyl-3-nitroso-4-hydroxybenzoate for ferroverdin B and one carboxylic acid p-vi...
