4,6-Dimethyl-2-mercaptopyrimidine

Description:

4,6-Dimethyl-2-mercaptopyrimidine is an organic compound characterized by its pyrimidine ring structure, which is a six-membered aromatic ring containing two nitrogen atoms at the 1 and 3 positions. The presence of two methyl groups at the 4 and 6 positions contributes to its hydrophobic character, while the thiol (-SH) group at the 2 position imparts unique reactivity and potential for forming disulfide bonds. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit a distinct odor due to the mercapto group. It is soluble in polar solvents, which can facilitate its use in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and as a ligand in coordination chemistry. 4,6-Dimethyl-2-mercaptopyrimidine has applications in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, often serving as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Its reactivity and structural features make it a subject of interest in medicinal chemistry and material science. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound due to the potential toxicity associated with thiols.

CAS: 22325-27-5

4,6-Dimethyl-2-mercaptopyrimidine is a protonated form of the compound 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine. It is a member of the group p2 of nitrogenous bases and has a hydrogen bond interaction with its base pair. The reaction mechanism for this molecule is similar to that of other tricyclic antidepressant drugs, as it involves an intermolecular hydrogen bonding reaction where the deprotonated hydroxyl group on one molecule transfers a proton to the adjacent nitrogen atom on another molecule. 4,6-Dimethyl-2-mercaptopyrimidine has been shown to be active in cervical cancer cells and is capable of inhibiting DNA synthesis and protein synthesis. This compound also has antihistamine effects which are likely due to its hydrogen bonding interactions with histamine receptors.
