4-(Methylnitrosoamino)butanoic acid

Description:
4-(Methylnitrosoamino)butanoic acid, identified by its CAS number 61445-55-4, is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of nitrosoamines, which are known for their potential carcinogenic properties. This substance features a butanoic acid backbone with a methylnitrosoamino group, which contributes to its reactivity and biological activity. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The presence of the nitroso group makes it susceptible to various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic attacks, which can lead to the formation of more complex compounds. Due to its structure, it may interact with biological macromolecules, potentially leading to mutagenic effects. As with many nitroso compounds, it is important to handle 4-(Methylnitrosoamino)butanoic acid with caution, as it may pose health risks upon exposure. Its use is often restricted or regulated in many jurisdictions due to its toxicological profile.
