CAS 36396-99-3: N6-cyclohexyladenosine
Description:N6-cyclohexyladenosine (CAS 36396-99-3) is a synthetic derivative of adenosine, characterized by the presence of a cyclohexyl group at the nitrogen atom in the N6 position of the adenine moiety. This modification enhances its affinity for adenosine receptors, particularly the A1 and A2A subtypes, making it a valuable compound in pharmacological research. N6-cyclohexyladenosine exhibits properties such as anti-inflammatory effects and potential neuroprotective benefits, which are of interest in the study of various diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders. The compound is typically soluble in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water, which is common for many adenosine analogs. Its structural modifications contribute to altered pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics compared to natural adenosine, allowing for the exploration of therapeutic applications. As with many chemical substances, safety and handling precautions should be observed, particularly in laboratory settings. Overall, N6-cyclohexyladenosine serves as an important tool in understanding adenosine receptor biology and developing new therapeutic agents.
