RT Journal Article T1 Alkylating potential of styrene oxide: reactions and factors involved in the alkylation process A1 González Pérez, Marina A1 Gómez Bombarelli, Rafael A1 Pérez Prior, María Teresa A1 Arenas Valgañón, Jorge A1 García Santos, María Pilar A1 Calle, Emilio A1 Casado, Julio AB The chemical reactivity of styrene-7,8-oxide (SO), an alkylating agent with high affinity for the guanine-N7 position and a probable carcinogen for humans, with 4-(p-nitrobenzyl)pyridine (NBP), a trap for alkylating agents with nucleophilic characteristics similar to those of DNA bases, was investigated kinetically in water/dioxane media. UV-vis spectrophotometry and ultrafast liquid chromatography were used to monitor the reactions involved...
