General description

1-Nitronaphthalene is a mutagenic nitroaromatic compound present in diesel exhaust and it causes acute liver and lung toxicity in rodents. 1-Nitronaphthalene is a cytochrome P450-bioactivated, nonciliated bronchiolar epithelial (Clara) cell cytotoxicant .

Application

1-Nitronaphthalene was used to study excited state dynamics of 1-nitropthalene in nonpolar, aprotic and protic solvents.

Biochem/physiol Actions

1-Nitronaphthalene binds covalently to protein and forms adducts in the rat airway epithelium in vivo.
