- Abstract
In the present paper the process of oxyhemoglobin oxidation by nitroethane has been investigated. The main process is accompanied with numerous side reactions including oxidative denitration of nitroethane resulting in the generation of acetaldehyde and 1,1-dinitroethane. The latter product is formed under the action of nitrite ion which is the product of oxidative denitration of nitroethane. The chain radical mechanism of methemoglobin generation is proposed. The reaction of oxyhemoglobin with nitroethane is regarded as initiated autooxidation of oxyhemoglobin.
