Toxicological data
As far as possible and customary, SI units are used. Unless otherwise noted, the data given apply to standard conditions .

4-Nitropyridine- N -oxide is a chemical compound from the group of aromatic nitro compounds and a derivative of pyridine . The substance is used as a catalyst .

Manufacturing

4-Nitropyridine- N -oxide can be prepared in good yield by nitration of pyridine- N -oxide . For this purpose, pyridine- N -oxide is reacted with a mixture of sulfuric acid and nitric acid at an elevated temperature.

toxicology

4-Nitropyridine- N -oxide is mainly highly toxic to birds (LD 50 orally 8 mg / kg for wild birds, 23 mg / kg for chickens and 20 mg / kg for pigeons), while for mammals such as mice (orally 50 mg / kg ), Rats (107 mg / kg orally), dogs (orally 3916 mg / kg) and pigs (orally 7208 mg / kg) very much higher values ​​were determined. Symptoms that occurred included skin and eye irritation, tremors and twitching, as well as restrictions in height and lung function.

In mice, subcutaneous injection of 1.5 mg / week for 16 weeks after 450 days resulted in sarcomas in three out of ten animals. In in vitro Studies showed 4-nitropyridine N -oxide, a genotoxic effect on fibroblasts of mice.
