The possible metabolic activation of nitrosonaphthols, suspected carcinogens, was investigated by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. Free radicals were found to be the primary metabolites formed during both the reduction and oxidation of these compounds. Whereas the one-electron oxidation of nitrosonaphthols is enzymatic and catalyzed by the peroxidase prototype, horseradish peroxidase, their one-electron reduction by reducing cofactors such as NADH or NADPH was not enhanced by rat liver microsomal enzymes. The ESR spectra of the radicals found during the oxidation of nitrosonaphthols were analyzed and characterized as iminoxyl free radicals. The reduction pathway leads to nitroxide free radicals with unusually low nitrogen hyperfine constants.
