Lack of mutagenicity to S. typhimurium of neopentyl bromide and pentaerythrityl tetrachloride: relation to chemical structure.

Mutat. Res. 140(2-3) , 71-4, (1984)

Neopentyl bromide and pentaerythrityl tetrachloride were shown here to be non-mutagenic to 7 strains of Salmonella typhimurium. These inactivities are reflected in the inability of either compound to ...

Isomerization of neopentyl chloride and neopentyl bromide by a 1,2-interchange of a halogen atom and a methyl group.
