Nitro-azabenzo[a]pyrenes, 1- or 3-nitro-azabenzo[a]pyrene and their N-oxides are nitratedderivatives of azabenzo[a] pyrene (ABP) containing nitrogen in the 6-position of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P). The nitro-ABP-N-oxides (ABPOs) were formed by reaction of ABP with excess HNO(3). These derivatives were noteworthy as potent mutagens for Salmonella strains, and were present in fine particles of diesel particulates
