The nitrofluoranthene (NF) family of compounds includes the potent pulmonary carcinogen 3,9-dinitrofluoranthene (3,9-DNF) and the weak carcinogen 3-nitrofluoranthene (3-NF). Although the specific molecular mechanisms involved in this difference in sensitivity for the induction of lung tumors in rats by 3,9-DNF

The environmental pollutant 3-nitrofluoranthene is metabolized in vitro and in vivo to several products including the phenolic metabolites 3-nitrofluoranthen-6-ol (3NF-6-ol), 3-nitrofluoranthen-8-ol (3NF-8-ol), and 3-nitrofluoranthen-9-ol (3NF-9-ol). Similarly, 1-nitropyrene is metabolized to the phenolic metabolites 1-nitropyren-3-ol (1NP-3-ol), 1-nitropyren-6-ol (1NP-6-ol), and 1-nitropyren-8-ol (1NP-8-ol).
