N'-NITROSONORNICOTINE structure

N'-NITROSONORNICOTINE 

structure
  • CAS No:

    16543-55-8

  • Formula:

    C9H11N3O

  • Chemical Name:

    N'-NITROSONORNICOTINE

  • Synonyms:

    1’-demethyl-1’-nitroso-nicotin;1’-desmethyl-1’-nitrosonicotine;1’-nitroso-1’-demethyl-nicotin;1’-nitroso-1’-demethylnicotine;1’-nitrosonornicotine;1-nitroso-2-(3-pyridyl)pyrrolidine;nitrosonornicotine;-Nitrosonornicotine-d4

Description

A nicotine alkaloid, this base has been detected in some Japanese cigarette tobaccos and also in Kirsu tobacco where it occurs in the fresh leaves that have been dried without fermentation. From these two sources it has been isolated at 1.1 and 1. 8 ppm levels respectively


white crystals


White crystalline flakes or yellow oil that solidifies on standing in the cold.


Confirmed carcinogen with experimental carcinogenic, neoplastigenic, and tumorigenic data. Low toxicity by intraperitoneal route. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx. See also N-NITROSO COMPOUNDS.


N-Nitrosonornicotine is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in experimental animals.

Insoluble in water.

A nitrated amine, nicotine derivative. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.

Hygroscopic, Refrigerator, Under Inert Atmosphere
