TR-385: Methyl Bromide (CASRN 74-83-9) NATIONAL TOXICOLOGY PROGRAM Technical Report Series No. 385 TOXICOLOGY AND CARCINOGENESIS STUDIES OF METHYL BROMIDE (CAS NO. 74-83-9) IN B6C3F1 MICE (INHALATION STUDIES) U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Public Health Service National Institutes of Health FOREWORD The National Toxicology Program (NTP) is made up of four charter agencies of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS): the National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health; the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), National Institutes of Health; the National Center for Toxicological Research (NCTR), Food and Drug Administration; and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control. In July 1981, the Carcinogenesis Bioassay Testing Program, NCI, was transferred to the NIEHS. The NTP coordinates the relevant programs, staff, and resources from these Public Health Service agencies relating to basic and applied research and to biological assay development and validation. The NTP develops, evaluates, and disseminates scientific information about potentially toxic and hazardous chemicals. This knowledge is used for protecting the health of the American people and for the primary prevention of disease. The studies described in this Technical Report were performed under the direction of the NIEHS and were conducted in compliance with NTP laboratory health and safety requirements and must meet or exceed all applicable federal, state, and local health and safety regulations. Animal care and use were in accordance with the Public Health Service Policy on Humane Care and Use of Animals. The prechronic and chronic studies were conducted in compliance with Food and Drug Administration Good Laboratory Practice Regulations and all aspects of the chronic studies were subjected to retrospective quality assurance audits before being presented for public review. These studies are designed and conducted to characterize and evaluate the toxicologic potential, including carcinogenic activity, of selected chemicals in laboratory animals (usually two species, rats and mice). Chemicals selected for NTP toxicology and carcinogenesis studies are chosen primarily on the bases of human exposure, level of production, and chemical structure. Selection per se is not an indicator of a chemical's carcinogenic potential. These NTP Technical Reports are available for sale from the National Technical Information Service, U.S. Department of Commerce, 5285 Port Royal Road, Springfield, VA 22161 (703-487-4650).

  • Chemistry for S5 Students Short Notes & Questions with Answers & And
    Chemistry for S5 students Short notes & questions with answers & and other questions to help S5 Students to revise Important Concepts: Chemical Reactions of Alkyl Halides The reaction can be broadly classified in two categories: (a) Nucleophilic substitution (b) Elimination reactions Nucleophilic substitution reactions: In this reaction a nucleophile, which is rich in electrons, attacks partial positive charge on the carbon atom bonded to halogen to replace the leaving group. Nucleophilic reactions proceed by two different mechanism: (a) Substitution nucleophilic bimolecular (SN2) (b) Substitution nucleophilic unirnolecular (SN1) The reaction follows second order kinetics No intermediate is formed. It usually requires a strong nucleophile. The order of reactivity followed as: Primary halide > Secondary halide > Tertiary halide It is carried out in polar protic solvents (water, Alcohol, acetic acid etc.). These reactions occur in two steps as shown above The order of leaving ability is: F- < Cl- < Br- < I- The order of reactivity is as shown below: Difference between E1 and E2 reaction mechanism: Attributes E1 E2 Rate law Depend on the concentration of Depends on the concentration of both substrate substrate and base Barrier Formation of carbocation None 3o>2o>> 1o Base Does not require strong base Requires strong base Stereochemistry Does not require stereochemistry Leaving group must be anti to hydrogen removed Some solved questions are given below: Question 1:Which is the correct increasing order of boiling points of the following compounds? 1-bromoethane, 1-bromopropane, 1-bromobutane, Bromobenzene (a) Bromobenzene < 1-bromobutane < 1-bromopropane < 1-bromoethane (b) Bromobenzene < 1-bromothane < 1-bromopropane < 1-bromobutane (c) 1-bromopropane < 1-bromobutane < 1-bromoethane < Bromobenzene (d) 1-bromoethane < 1-bromopropane < 1-bromobutane < Bromobenzene Solution 1: Boiling point increases with increase in size of hydrocarbon part for the same haloalkanes.
