Abstract
Acrylonitrile (AN) is metabolized by an oxidative pathway via glycidonitrile and glycolaldehyde cyanohydrin to cyanide (CN-), which is transformed to thiocyanate. The major route of AN metabolism (more than 2/3), however, proceeds via cyanoethylation of glutathione, to N-acetyl-S-(2-cyanoethyl)cysteine (AN-mercapturic acid) as a final product.
