Product Information
- Chrysen-3-yl methyl ether
3-Methoxychrysene is a carcinogenic compound that has been found in the hexane extract of coal tar. 3-Methoxychrysene is an equilibrating compound, meaning that it can be reversibly converted between its more stable epoxide and less stable phenol forms. The carcinogenic potencies of these two forms are different, with the epoxide form being more potent than the phenol form. 3-Methoxychrysene is metabolized by benzonitrile hydroxylase to yield 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde, which can then undergo nitroreduction to produce benzofuran. This metabolic process is responsible for some of the carcinogenic effects of 3-methoxychrysene.
