Synthesis of 2โ€aminoโ€1โ€methylโ€6โ€phenylimidazo[4,5โ€b]pyridine (PhIP), three structural isomers, and two desphenyl PhIP congeners has been carried out. Mutagenic potency was evaluated using S. typhimurium strain TA98 in the Ames test. Mutagenic potency increased in relation to structural features in these heterocyclic amines that allow extended resonance between the phenyl and imidazo[4,5โ€b]pyridine N^2^โ€amino substituents. By contrast, PhIP isomers, whose substitution disallows involvement of the phenyl group in their aminoimidazo resonance hybrids, and desphenyl congeners were from 86โ€ to 234โ€fold less mutagenic than PhIP.

2-Amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo(4,5-b)pyridine (PhIP), a compound found in cooked meat, is a mammary gland carcinogen in female Sprague-Dawley rats. PhIP-induced rat mammary gland carcinomas were examined for mutations in several genes (exons) known to regulate cell growth and apoptosis, including
