trans-dihydrodiol derivatives implicated as the proximate carcinogenic metabolites of the polycyclic hydrocarbons cholanthrene, 6-methylcholanthrene, benz[a]anthracene, and 7- and 12-methylbenz[a]anthracene are described. These compounds are useful models for research to determine the molecular basis of the strong enhancement of carcinogenicity consequent upon methyl substitution in nonbenzo bay molecular
