Description

N-Nitrosopyrrolidine is a chemical compound that is used as an organic solvent, pharmaceutical intermediate, and plasticizer. It reacts with DNA in vitro to form genotoxic activity, which may lead to cell death or mutagenesis. N-Nitrosopyrrolidine also has neurotrophic effects on primary cells and is an important precursor in the synthesis of polymers. The reactivity of N-nitrosopyrrolidine has been studied by kinetic energy spectroscopy and by measuring the intramolecular hydrogen transfer between nitroso groups. The mechanism of this reaction is not fully understood, but it appears to proceed through a dinucleotide phosphate intermediate with a high degree of kinetic energy.
