N-Butyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine

Description:
N-Butyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, commonly referred to as BNNG, is a synthetic organic compound known for its role as a potent carcinogen and mutagen. It belongs to the class of nitrosamines, which are characterized by the presence of a nitroso group (-N=O) attached to a nitrogen atom. BNNG is typically a yellow to orange crystalline solid that is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The compound is primarily used in laboratory settings for research purposes, particularly in studies related to cancer biology and the mechanisms of mutagenesis. Due to its hazardous nature, BNNG is handled with caution, as it poses significant health risks, including potential carcinogenic effects upon exposure. Proper safety protocols, including the use of personal protective equipment and fume hoods, are essential when working with this substance. Its chemical structure includes a butyl group, which contributes to its lipophilicity, enhancing its ability to penetrate biological membranes.
