The major metabolitesof benzene metabolism are phenol, hydroquinone, and catechol. These metabolites are interactive and can affect the rate of each other's metabolism because they are substrates for the P-450 enzyme system. The route of exposure has little effect on the subsequent metabolism of benzene to hemotoxic metabolites.

Covalent interaction of a benzene metabolite with dna was shown in vivo, but no information was given about the chem nature of this metabolite. A likely intermediate in benzene metabolism is benzene oxide. In neutral aq media it rearranges only slowly to the phenol so that its lifetime could be long enough for diffusion from the site of activation to the dna. Alternatively, the metabolic appearance of polyhydroxy derivatives suggests the formation of a phenol epoxide, so that the reactive molecule could be a secondary metabolite.
PMID:890848 Lutz WK, Schlatter C; Chem Biol Interact 18 (2): 241-6 (1977)
The available evidence supports the concept that benzene toxicity is caused by one or more metabolites of benzene. ... Benzene metabolites containing 2 or 3 hydroxyl groups inhibited mitosis. Toluene, which inhibits benzene metabolism, protected animals against benzene-induced myelotoxicity. Benzene toxicity could be correlated with the appearance of benzene metabolites in bone marrow. Although it is clear that benzene can be metabolized in bone marrow, the observation that partial hepatectomy protects against benzene toxicity suggests that a metabolite formed in liver is essential for benzene toxicity.
