(4-Nitrophenyl)urea

CAS: 556-10-5

4-Nitrophenyl Urea (4NPU) is a compound that has antimalarial activity. It is an intramolecular hydrogen transfer agent that forms a reactive intermediate and interacts with anions, such as hydroxide ions, to form covalent bonds. 4NPU inhibits growth factor-mediated cell toxicity and has been shown to have the ability to select for mutant cells in vitro and in vivo. Crystals of 4NPU belong to the monoclinic system with space group P2 1/c. Hydrogen bonding occurs between the nitrogen atom on the urea moiety and water molecules in the crystal lattice, which stabilizes the molecule's structure.
