Abstract
Abstract Four new 7-bromomethylbenz[a]anthracene derivatives were prepared and their chemical reactivities studied. The abilities of these new agents and the previously studied 7-bromomethylbenz[a]anthracene and 7-bromomethyl-12-methylbenz[a]anthracene to initiate papilloma in mouse skin were compared. For five out of the six compounds a relationship was found between an increasing tendency to react through a first order process and an increasing ability to initiate papilloma in mouse skin.
