rac N'-Nitrosonornicotine - Introduction
N-Nitroso-nornicotine (NNN) is a common nitroso compound in tobacco, which is a potential carcinogen. The following is an introduction to the nature, use, formulation and safety information of NNN:
Nature:
-Appearance: NNN is a colorless to yellow crystalline solid.
-Melting point: About 147-148 ° C.
-Solubility: NNN is soluble in ethanol, chloroform and benzene and other organic solvents, insoluble in water.
Use:
-Ingredients in tobacco: NNN is a naturally occurring nitroso compound in tobacco, which is one of the main by-products produced by tobacco combustion.
-Carcinogenic effect: NNN is considered to be a potential carcinogen in tobacco and may be related to the development of cancer of the mouth, esophagus and lungs.
Method:
NNN is mainly formed by chemical reactions during the combustion of tobacco. When tobacco is burned, the tobacco alkali compounds in it interact with nitrogen oxides to form NNN.
Safety Information:
-Toxicity: NNN is considered a compound harmful to human health and may be related to the development of certain cancers. It can also be potentially harmful to animals and the environment.
-Contact: Avoid direct skin or eye contact with NNN, and wear appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves and goggles.
-Restrictions on use: Due to its carcinogenicity and harmfulness, the use of NNN is strictly regulated. In national legislation, there is a maximum limit on the content of NNN in tobacco products.
It should be noted that NNN is a potential carcinogen, and smoking may lead to inhalation of NNN, which increases the risk of cancer. Smokers should be aware of the health hazards of smoking and try to avoid smoking or seek ways to quit.
