N-Nitrosopiperidine

Description:

N-Nitrosopiperidine is a chemical compound classified as a nitrosamine, which is known for its potential carcinogenic properties. It is formed by the reaction of piperidine, a cyclic amine, with nitrous acid. The compound is typically a pale yellow to brown liquid with a characteristic odor. N-Nitrosopiperidine is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Its molecular structure features a piperidine ring with a nitroso group (-N=O) attached, which contributes to its reactivity and biological activity. This substance is primarily of interest in toxicology and environmental chemistry due to its formation in various chemical processes and its presence in certain food products and tobacco. Exposure to N-nitrosopiperidine has been linked to an increased risk of cancer in laboratory animals, prompting regulatory scrutiny. Proper handling and disposal are essential to mitigate its potential health risks, and it is classified as a hazardous substance in many jurisdictions.

N-Nitrosopiperidine

CAS: 100-75-4

N-Nitrosopiperidine is a nitrated aromatic amine that can be found in the environment. It has been shown to induce genotoxic effects and to inhibit liver microsomal enzyme activity. It is also shown to cause DNA damage in hl-60 cells and in the model system. N-Nitrosopiperidine may act by causing an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, which results in oxidative stress and cellular dysfunction. This compound has been shown to induce congestive heart failure, as well as chronic oral toxicity and maternal toxicity. N-Nitrosopiperidine has also been associated with hepatic tissues changes and fetal bovine abnormalities.
