SUMMARY SYNTHETIC HYDRAZINES

The various synthetic substituted hydrazines, which cause tumors in animals, are briefly enumerated. To date, 19 of Studies on the carcinogenic potentialities of synthetic them have proved to be tumorigenic in animals. A number substituted hydrazines began in 1962, when it was shown of these chemicals are found today in the environment, in that the base compound sulfate induced lung industry, in agriculture, and in medicine, and the human neoplasms in mice (1). Subsequently, a series of hydrazine population is exposed to a certain degree to some of them. derivatives were investigated in various laboratories for Hydrazine also occurs in nature in tobacco and tobacco tumor-inducing capabilities. These studies clearly demon smoke. The three other naturally occurring hydrazine strated that these chemicals are indeed powerful tumori compounds are N-methyl-N-formylhydrazine, which oc genic substances in mice, hamsters, and rats, due to their curs in the wild edible , esculenta, tumor-inducing abilities in the intestines, brain, lungs, and @-N-[―y-L(+)-glutamylJ-4-hydroxymethylphenyl blood vessels, liver, breasts, kidneys, etc. Now, we know of hydrazine and 4-hydroxymethylphenylhydrazine, whkh 19 hydrazine derivatives that have been shown to be tumor are found in the commonly eaten cultivated mushroom, inducers. These include, in addition to hydrazine (1, 32), . Tumorigenesis studies with the natu methyl- (35, 40), 1,2-dimethyl- (6, 27, 36, 46, 52), 1,1- rally occurring hydrazines are in progress. dimethyl- (28, 37), benzoyl- (2, 34), phenyl- (2), 2-hydrox yethyl- (I I), 1,2-diethyl- (5), l-acetyl-2-isonicotinoyl- (39) hydrazines; N-isopropyl-a- (2-methythydrazino)-p-tolua INTRODUCTION mide (13, 14); and l-isonicotinoyl-2-isopropyl- (2), or thometoxybenzoyl- (2), paramethoxybenzoyl- (2), 1-meth Interest in chemical carcinogenesis in the past few yl-2-butyl- (4), l-methyl-2-benzyl- (4), ethyl- (42, 44), decades has focused on the possible roles of synthetic n-butyl- (44), 1-carbamyl-2-phenyl- (4 1), carbamyl- (43), chemicals that may cause cancer in man.

To date, around 6,000 chemicals used in industry, agriculture, and medicine.

With the exception of not even have data concerning whether or not the pineapple hydrazine itself, the other naturally occurring derivatives of fruit contains the ripening agent.
