We have previously shown that fluorine-substitution at position 3 of quinoline deprived this molecule of mutagenicity, possibly due to interference with the yield of its metabolically activated form, the 1,4-hydrated 2,3-epoxide (enamine epoxide), which is directly responsible for the mutagenic modification of DNA. To further explore the possibility of a method for anti-mutagenic modification of mutagens by fluorine-substitution, 4-methylquinoline (4-MeQ), the most mutagenic form of all the quinoline derivatives examined so far, was used as a target in the present study. Five mono- and di-fluorinated derivatives of 4-MeQ, 2-fluoro-4-methylquinoline (2-F-4-MeQ), 6-F-4-MeQ, 7-F-4-MeQ, 2,6-difluoro-4-methylquinoline (2,6-diF-4-MeQ), and 2,7-diF-4-MeQ, were subjected to analysis of their structure-mutagenicity relationships. The 2-fluorinated derivatives (2-F-4-MeQ, 2,6-diF-4-MeQ, and 2,7-diF-4-MeQ) were all non-mutagenic in the Ames test. 7-F-4-MeQ was as highly mutagenic as, and 6-F-4-MeQ was less mutagenic than non-fluorinated 4-MeQ. Metabolic studies were also conducted with 4-MeQ, 2-F-4-MeQ, 6-F-4-MeQ, and 7-F-4-MeQ, using a liver microsomal enzyme fraction prepared from the 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rat. The HPLC analytical data showed that, although the metabolic patterns (hydroxylation at 4-methyl group as a main metabolic pathway and 3-hydroxylation as a minor pathway) of these four F-MeQs were similar to one another, only the 3-hydroxy metabolite of 2-F-4-MeQ was not produced under the present experimental conditions employed. These results suggest that fluorine-substitution at position 2 of 4-MeQ inhibited the formation of the enamine epoxide in the pyridine moiety and deprived this molecule of mutagenicity as in the case of quinoline.
