2-bromo-4-Nitrobenzoic acid

Description:

2-Bromo-4-nitrobenzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid characterized by the presence of both a bromine atom and a nitro group on the benzene ring. The compound features a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) that contributes to its acidic properties. The bromine substituent is located at the second position, while the nitro group is at the fourth position relative to the carboxylic acid group, indicating a para relationship. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents, with limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic structure. It is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The presence of both electron-withdrawing groups (bromo and nitro) can significantly influence the reactivity and electronic properties of the compound, making it a valuable building block in synthetic chemistry. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.

2-Bromo-4-nitrobenzoic acid is a peptidomimetic that binds to farnesyltransferase and inhibits the enzyme activity. This drug is currently in preclinical development for the treatment of cancer. Preliminary studies have shown that 2-bromo-4-nitrobenzoic acid is able to inhibit tumor growth, which may be due to its inhibition of protein prenylation. This drug also has a low cell membrane permeability, which means it can only enter cells when they are actively taking up molecules from their surroundings. The lack of labelling on this drug means that it is not possible to detect its presence in vivo with positron emission tomography (PET) scans.
