Ronald J. Lorentzen, William J. Caspary,* Stephen A. Lesko, and P. O. P. Ts’o* abstract: A labile metabolite of the carcinogen benzo-[ojpyrene, 6-hydroxybenzo [a] pyrene, is autoxidized in aqueous buffer-ethanol solutions to produce the three stable 6, 12-1, 6-, and 3, 6-benzo [a] pyrene diones and a small amount of an unidentified paramagnetic, violet-colored ma-terial. In this reaction, oxygen is reduced to hydrogen per-oxide and probably to other reactive reduced oxygen species as well. A free radical derived from 6-hydroxybenzo [a] py-rene by one-electron oxidation, 6-oxobenzo [a] pyrene radi-cal, is most likely an obligatory intermediate in this autox-idation as indicated by its kinetics of formation and decay. In addition, this free radical can be produced quantitatively in benzene by oxidation of6-OH-B [a] P with aqueous K. 3Fe (CN) e and isolated in the absence of oxygen. Like 6-
