N-Butyl-N-(3-carboxypropyl)nitrosamine

Description:
N-Butyl-N-(3-carboxypropyl)nitrosamine, with the CAS number 38252-74-3, is a synthetic organic compound belonging to the class of nitrosamines, which are known for their potential carcinogenic properties. This compound features a butyl group and a carboxypropyl moiety, linked to a nitrosamine functional group. It is typically characterized by its relatively low solubility in water, while being more soluble in organic solvents. The presence of the nitrosamine group indicates that it may undergo metabolic activation in biological systems, leading to the formation of reactive intermediates that can interact with cellular macromolecules, such as DNA. This interaction is a key factor in its potential toxicity and carcinogenicity. Due to these properties, N-Butyl-N-(3-carboxypropyl)nitrosamine is of interest in toxicological studies and risk assessments related to exposure to nitrosamines in various environments, including food and industrial settings. Proper handling and safety measures are essential when working with this compound due to its hazardous nature.
