Methanesulfonamide, N-methyl-N-phenyl-

Description:

Methanesulfonamide, N-methyl-N-phenyl- is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a methanesulfonamide functional group attached to a methyl and a phenyl group. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents due to the sulfonamide moiety. It exhibits properties associated with both sulfonamides and amines, which can influence its reactivity and interactions in various chemical environments. The presence of the phenyl group contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics, while the methyl group can enhance its lipophilicity. Methanesulfonamide derivatives are often studied for their potential biological activities, including antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, the compound may serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis or as a building block in the development of pharmaceuticals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper laboratory practices.

N-Methyl-N-phenylmethanesulfonamide

CAS: 13229-35-1

N-Methyl-N-phenylmethanesulfonamide (NMPSA) is a small molecule that has been used as an anticancer agent in human cell cultures. NMPSA inhibits the growth of cancer cells by inducing apoptosis and arrest of the cell cycle, which may be due to its ability to inhibit tyrosine kinase activity. It also inhibits the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are thought to play a role in tumorigenesis. NMPSA has been shown to be more potent than other anticancer drugs on a per weight basis, with an EC50 value of 0.1 μM.
