3-methylnitrosaminopropionaldehyde Usage And Synthesis

Uses

3-(Methylnitrosamine)propionaldehyde (MNPA) was detected for the 1st time in the saliva of betel quid chewers and is a potent carcinogen. It exhibits higher cytotoxicity than Nitrosoguvacine (NGC), Nitrosoguvacoline (NG) and 3-(Methylnitrosamino)propionitrile (MNPN).

Uses

3-(Methylnitrosamine)propionaldehyde (MNPA) Nitrosoguvacoline (NG) and 3-(Methylnitrosamino)propionitrile (MNPN).

Definition

ChEBI: 3-(N-Nitrosomethylamino)propionaldehyde is an aldehyde.

Safety Profile

Mutation data reported.Questionable carcinogen. When heated to decompositionit emits toxic vapors of NOx.
