Abstract
The solvolysis of N-acetoxy-2-acetylaminofluorene in aqueous acetone at neutral pH proceeds exclusively with nitrenium ion formation while under the same conditions, the 4-aminobiphenyl analogue undergoes exclusive acyl-oxygen scission. ... Many polycyclic aromatic amines and amides are known mutagens or carcinogens.' Of these, the most extensively studied is 2-acetylaminofluorene. It is generally regarded that these compounds owe their biological ...
