Popis: | The metabolism of (−)-(S)-nicotine has been investigated following intratracheal administration to the recirculating perfused rabbit lung model. The metabolic products present in the perfusate were identified by co-chromatography (HPLC and GC) with authentic standards and quantified by HPLC. After the 180 min perfusion period, nicotine was found to be metabolically transformed to cotinine (33.7%), 3-hydroxycotinine (10.4%), cotinine-1-N-oxide (3.4%) and nicotine-1′-N-oxide (14.4%). Norcotinine, nornicotine, 3-pyridyl-4-oxo-N-methylbutyramide and an uncharacterised metabolite were also detected in low amounts. Following the perfusion experiment, part of the lung tissue was homogenised in the presence of [14C]-sodium cyanide. Subsequent analysis of the homogenates indicated the formation of 2′-cyanonicotine, 1′-cyanomethylnornicotine and the diastereoisomeric 5′-cyanonicotines. |
