Description:6-Chloro-9-methyl-9H-purine, with the CAS number 2346-74-9, is a purine derivative characterized by the presence of a chlorine atom at the 6-position and a methyl group at the 9-position of the purine ring. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar organic solvents. It exhibits properties typical of purines, including potential biological activity, as purines are fundamental components of nucleic acids. The chlorine substituent can influence the compound's reactivity and interaction with biological systems, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and pharmacology. Its structural features may allow it to act as a nucleoside analog, which can interfere with nucleic acid synthesis. Additionally, the compound may be used in research settings to study purine metabolism or as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
