Inhalation of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) by mice administered orally amidopyrine (AP) and sodium nitrite resulted in increased biosynthesis of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), as determined by analysis using gas chromatography with thermal energy analyzer detector. These results were also confirmed indirectly in chronic experiments on rats using the system of biomarkers of NDMA formation (single-stranded DNA liver damages, alanine-aminotransferase, glutathione-S-transferase, and liver S9 fraction activity). The inhibition of NDMA metabolism by 4-methylpyrazol (4-MP) administration increases the sensitivity of NDMA biosynthesis assay in frozen whole-mouse powder. The results confirm that NO2 can serve as the precursor of nitrosamines.
Sprague-Dawley rats exposed to atmospheres containing low levels of nitrogen dioxide for 24 hr had increased levels of nitrate in their urine on the day of exposure & on the 3 subsequent days. Authors findings support the hypothesis that the major interaction of nitrogen dioxide in the lung is with readily oxidizable tissue components to form nitrite, & they estimate that 9.6 umol of nitrite is formed in the respiratory tract per ppm nitrogen dioxide 24 hr exposure.
IDENTIFICATION: Nitric oxide is a colorless, odorless gas that is only slightly soluble in water. The main sources of nitrogen oxides (including nitric oxide) emissions are combustion processes. Fossil fuel power stations, motor vehicles and domestic combustion appliances emit nitrogen oxides, mostly in the form of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide can be present at significant concentrations in ambient air and in indoor air. HUMAN EXPOSURE: Human exposure to nitrogen oxides varies from indoors to outdoors, from cities to the countryside, and with the time of day and season. Nitric oxide is readily oxidized to nitrogen dioxide and peroxidation then occurs. Because of the concurrent exposure to some nitrogen dioxide in nitric oxide exposures, it is difficult to discriminate nitric oxide effects from nitrogen dioxide. Nitric oxide functions as an intracellular second messenger modulating a wide variety of essential enzymes, and it inhibits its own production (e.g., negative feedback). Nitric oxide activates guanylate cyclase which in turn increases intracellular cGMP levels. Nitric oxide is acknowledged as an important endogenous second messenger within several organ systems. At certain levels, inhaled nitric oxide concentrations can cause vasodilation in the pulmonary circulation without affecting the systemic circulation. The lowest effective concentration is not established. Information on pulmonary function and lung host defenses consequent to nitric oxide exposure are too limited for any conclusions to be drawn. Relatively high concentrations have been used in clinical applications for brief periods without reported adverse effects. ANIMAL STUDIES: The toxicological database for nitric oxide is small, relative to nitrogen dioxide. It is often difficult to obtain pure nitric oxide in air without some contamination with nitrogen dioxide. Endogenous nitric oxide synthesis occurs by nitric oxide formation from physiological substrate in cells of many of the organ systems such as nerve tissue, blood vessels and the immune system. Nitric oxide may be more potent than nitrogen dioxide in introducing certain changes in lung morphology. In a study examining the effects of nitric oxide on bacterial defenses, there were no statistically significant effects for either sex at any of the time points studied. In vitro data indicate that nitric oxide stimulates guanylate cyclase and leads to smooth muscle relaxation and vasodilation and functional effects on the nervous system. These effects are probably responsible for vasodilation in the pulmonary circulation and an acute bronchodilator effect of inhaled nitric oxide. Nitric oxide has an affinity for heme-bound iron which is two times higher than that of carbon monoxide. This affinity leads to the formation of methemoglobin and the stimulation of guanylate cyclase. Furthermore, nitric oxide reacts with thiol-associated iron in enzymes and eventually displaces the iron. This is a possible mechanism for the cytotoxic effects of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide can deaminate DNA, evoke DNA chain breaks, and inhibit DNA polymerase and ribonucleotide reductase. It might be antimitogenic and inhibit T cell proliferation in rat spleen cells.
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation:No information is available on the clinical use of liquid nitrogen on the skin during breastfeeding. Because it is a nontoxic gas that is unlikely to appear in breastmilk or be absorbed by the infant, it is considered safe to use during breastfeeding. No special precautions are required.

50 to 60% of inspired nitrogen dioxide in rhesus monkeys was retained during quiet resp, the gas was distributed throughout lungs. Once absorbed, nitrogen dioxide or chem intermediates remained within lungs for prolonged periods after cessation of exposure, & dissemination to extrapulmonary sites occurred via blood stream.
... Found that about 50% of nitrogen dioxide was absorbed in passage through the nose and throat of a rabbit. ... 50 to 60% of nitrogen dioxide was absorbed by monkeys exposed to 0.3 to 0.9 ppm of nitrogen dioxide. The radioactive tracer ... used remained in the lung for prolonged periods, with some spread to other tissues.
Nitrogen dioxide is partly dissolved in the mucus of the upper airways, but it is also fairly evenly distributed throughout the respiratory tract; it is furthur spread in the body by the circulatory system.

The synthesis of pentafluoronitrosulfane, SF5NO2, is accomplished either by reacting N(SF5)3 with NO2 or by the photolysis of a SF5Br/NO2 mixture using diazo lamps. The product is purified by treatment with CsF and repeated trap-to-trap condensation. The solid compound melts at -78 degrees C, and the extrapolated boiling point is 9 degrees C. SF5NO2 is characterized by 19F, 15N NMR, IR, Raman, and
chloropicrin in air at 1 atm was performed in a 6-m3 photochemical reaction chamber with a combination of Xe arc lamps and Pyrex filters as a light source. Phosgene was obtained as one of the main products with a yield of unity. No nitrosylchloride was observed, which supports the C–N scission mechanism for the photolysis. Photochemical ozone formation was enhanced when chloropicrin was added to the

deposited material as demonstrated by the temperature–programmed decomposition in helium. The main reaction pathway with the two nitrocompounds appears to be rearrangement followed by dehydration to the corresponding isocyanate and hydrolysis to amine (or ammonia), with the latter steps proceeding on Brønsted acid sites. Nitrogen is then formed by reaction with NO/O2 on the transition metal as in the
