N-Hydroxymethylacetamide

CAS: 625-51-4

N-Hydroxymethylacetamide is a molecule that is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other organic compounds. It has been shown to have anticancer activity and has been used to synthesize glycosidic bonds. N-Hydroxymethylacetamide has also been found in human urine samples, where it can be used for detecting cancer cells. N-Hydroxymethylacetamide is an important component of the hydrogen bonding interactions that are involved in the biological function of nucleotide phosphate. Hydrogen fluoride, which is a byproduct of this chemical, can be used to treat cancers such as leukemia or lymphoma.
