1-Chloromethylpyrene (1-CMP) has been evaluated as a model mutagen and toxin related to the ultimate electrophiles derived from benzo[a]pyrene and 1-nitropyrene. It was mutagenic to Salmonella (greater than 100 pg/plate) and exceptionally reactive to DNA when assessed by the 32P-postlabelling technique. 1-CMP was inactive in a mouse bone micronucleus assay when administered by gavage, probably due to hydrolysis, whose kinetics have been studied (t1/2 approximately 23 min at 37 degrees C). However, as expected, it was a potent skin toxin as determined by its activity as a mitogen to mouse skin and its contact allergenicity, as determined using the local lymph node proliferative assay. It is concluded that 1-CMP will probably be a potent human skin carcinogen and contact allergen.
