CAS 50-35-1: Thalidomide
Description:Thalidomide, with the CAS number 50-35-1, is a synthetic compound originally developed in the late 1950s as a sedative and later prescribed for morning sickness in pregnant women. It is classified as a phthalimide derivative and has a molecular formula of C13H10N2O4. Thalidomide is known for its unique mechanism of action, which includes immunomodulatory effects, anti-inflammatory properties, and inhibition of angiogenesis. Its structure features a chiral center, leading to two enantiomers, one of which is associated with the drug's therapeutic effects, while the other is linked to severe teratogenic effects, resulting in birth defects when taken during pregnancy. Due to these risks, thalidomide was withdrawn from the market in the early 1960s. However, it has since been repurposed and is now used under strict regulations for the treatment of certain conditions, such as multiple myeloma and leprosy-related complications. Its use is closely monitored due to its potential side effects, including peripheral neuropathy and thromboembolic events.
