Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are an important class of environmental carcinogens, and dibenzo[def,p]chrysene is the most potent carcinogenic PAH currently known. Syntheses of various oxidized metabolites of dibenzo[def,p]chrysene implicated as the biologically active forms that interact directly or indirectly with DNA to induce mutations that lead to tumor induction are reported. These include
