N-Ethyl-N-isopropylnitrous amide

N-Ethyl-N-propan-2-ylnitrous amide (EPN) is a medicine that is used as an analytical reference standard for the analysis of impurities in pharmaceutical products. The carcinogenic potential of EPN was evaluated by a spectrometer and analytical methods, such as gas chromatography and mass spectrometry, with validation. This chemical is not regulated by the FDA or other regulatory agencies. It has been shown to be carcinogenic in laboratory animals and should be handled with extreme caution.
