MONOFUNCTIONAL quinacrine mustard, 2-methoxy-6-chloro-9(3[ethyl2-chloroethyl] aminopropylamino) acridine dihydrochloride, ICR-170*, consists of two portions: an acridine ring and an alkylating mustard. The complex chemical structure of PCR-170 suggests that mutations could be produced by several different mechanisms. If the nitrogen mustard component of the molecule is the effective part of the...
