摘要

Photolabile 6-nitrobenzo [a] pyrene (6-nitroBaP) released nitric oxide (NO) under visible- light irradiation. The generation of NO and the concomitant formation of the 6-oxyBaP radical were confirmed by ESR. BaP quinones were also detected as further oxidized products of the 6-oxyBaP radical. No such photodegradation was observed with other nitrated BaPs, such as 1-nitroBaP and 3-nitroBaP. DNA-strand breakage, caused by photoexcited 6- ...
