Metabolism of 2,3,5,6-tetrachloronitrobenzene (tecnazene) in rat
摘要:
1. The metabolic fate of [U-C-14]-2,3,5,6-tetrachloronitrobenzene (tenazene) has been determined in the male and female rat following a single dose of 1 mg/kg and in surgically prepared, bile-duct-cannulated rats following a single oral dose of 135 mg/kg.2. Radioactivity in the female rat n as excreted mainly in urine (82%). The male rat, however, excreted approximately equal amounts of radioactivity in urine and faeces (the latter via bile).3. The principal metabolic pathway was conjugation with glutathione (GSH) and concomitant nitro-displacement. The GSH-conjugate and related metabolites were excreted in the bile and ultimately in the urine as the mercapturic acid conjugate. The cysteine conjugate underwent beta-lyase-mediated metabolism to yield a thiol that underwent subsequent methylation to the thioanisole foilowed by S-oxidation.4. A novel tetrachloromethyldisulphide metabolite was also formed.
