    Product Safety Summary Phosphorus Oxychloride CAS No. 10025-87-3 This Product Safety Summary is intended to provide a general overview of the chemical substance. The information in the summary is basic information and is not intended to provide emergency response information, medical information or treatment information. The summary should not be used to provide in-depth safety and health information. In-depth safety and health information can be found in the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for the chemical substance. Names Phosphorus oxychloride Phosphorus trichloride oxide Phosphoric trichloride POCl 3 Product Overview Solvay Novecare does not sell phosphorus oxychloride directly to consumers. Phosphorus oxychloride (POCl3) is used as a chemical intermediate to produce a variety of products which are used in several applications including manufacture of triarylphosphate esters which are used as flame retardants as well as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceutical, textile and agricultural chemicals. Phosphorus oxychloride is used in industrial applications and other processes where workplace exposures can occur. Consumer exposure does not occur as phosphorus oxychloride is not used in any commercially available product. Phosphorus oxychloride is dangerous to human health. Phosphorus oxychloride may be fatal if inhaled, highly toxic if swallowed, harmful if absorbed through skin and can cause severe burns which may result in scarring. Phosphorus oxychloride is consumed in manufacturing processes. POCl3 can make its way into the environment through unintentional releases (spills). POCl3 will not bioaccumulate but is not biodegradable. POCl3 in higher concentrations can be harmful to aquatic life due to formation of acids from the hydrolysis of POCl3. When released into the atmosphere, phosphorus oxychloride exists as vapor.

  • Effects of Allopurinol and Oxipurinol on Purine Synthesis in Cultured Human Cells
    Effects of allopurinol and oxipurinol on purine synthesis in cultured human cells William N. Kelley, James B. Wyngaarden J Clin Invest. 1970;49(3):602-609. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI106271. Research Article In the present study we have examined the effects of allopurinol and oxipurinol on thed e novo synthesis of purines in cultured human fibroblasts. Allopurinol inhibits de novo purine synthesis in the absence of xanthine oxidase. Inhibition at lower concentrations of the drug requires the presence of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase as it does in vivo. Although this suggests that the inhibitory effect of allopurinol at least at the lower concentrations tested is a consequence of its conversion to the ribonucleotide form in human cells, the nucleotide derivative could not be demonstrated. Several possible indirect consequences of such a conversion were also sought. There was no evidence that allopurinol was further utilized in the synthesis of nucleic acids in these cultured human cells and no effect of either allopurinol or oxipurinol on the long-term survival of human cells in vitro could be demonstrated. At higher concentrations, both allopurinol and oxipurinol inhibit the early steps ofd e novo purine synthesis in the absence of either xanthine oxidase or hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase. This indicates that at higher drug concentrations, inhibition is occurring by some mechanism other than those previously postulated.

Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Guanosine is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the guanosine in the solvent of choice, which should be purged with an inert gas. Guanosine is soluble in the organic solvent DMSO at a concentration of approximately 30 mg/ml. Guanosine is sparingly soluble in aqueous buffers. For maximum solubility in aqueous buffers, guanosine should first be dissolved in DMSO and then diluted with the aqueous buffer of choice. Guanosine has a solubility of approximately 0.16 mg/ml in a 1:5 solution of DMSO:PBS (pH 7.2) using this method. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. Description Guanosine is a purine nucleoside that is comprised of the purine base guanine attached to a ribose moiety.1 Mono-, di-, tri-, and cyclic monophosphorylated forms of guanosine (GMP, GDP, GTP, and cGMP, respectively) are essential for a variety of endogenous biochemical processes, such as signal transduction, metabolism, and RNA synthesis.2-4 References 1.
