This work compares two reaction schemes for preparing 2,3-bis(fattyalkylthio)-1-propanols for further synthetic adaptation as hydrophobic analogs of lung surfactant phosphatidylcholines. An attempt to prepare 2,3-bis(fattyalkylthio)-1-propanols based on the previously published methods of Bell and co-workers (B.R. Ganong, C.R. Loomis, Y.A.

A QSAR model based on the combination of two molecular descriptors--estimated electrophilic reactivity and Ashby's structural alerts--was used to predict the carcinogenicity of 44 chemicals currently bioassayed by the US National Toxicology Program. These predictions will be compared with the

2,3-Dibromo-1-propanol is a metabolite of the flame retardant tris(2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate, previously shown to be a mutagen and carcinogen in experimental animals. Toxicology and carcinogenesis studies of 2,3-dibromo-1-propanol were conducted by applying the chemical in 95% ethanol to the interscapular skin
