Abstract

Abstract The decomposition of N′-benzoyl-N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (BMNU) in aqueous media over the 0− 14 pH range has been studied. In basic and neutral media (6< pH< 14) the reaction proceeds through abstraction of the acidic proton of BMNU (pK a= 7.8) and subsequent decomposition of the conjugate base of the thus formed nitrosourea, via an intermediate benzoyl isocyanate. Support for this mechanism is provided by the presence ...
