CAS 6421-88-1

4-(2-Hydroxyethoxy)aniline

Description:

4-(2-Hydroxyethoxy)aniline, also known by its CAS number 6421-88-1, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of an aniline group substituted with a 2-hydroxyethoxy group at the para position. This compound typically appears as a colorless to light yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, owing to the hydroxyl group that enhances its hydrophilicity. The presence of both an amino group and a hydroxyl group in its structure allows for potential hydrogen bonding, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other substances. 4-(2-Hydroxyethoxy)aniline is often used in the synthesis of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and other organic compounds, making it valuable in various industrial applications. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, which warrants careful handling and consideration of safety protocols during its use.

2-(4-aminophenoxy)ethanol

CAS: 6421-88-1

2-(4-Aminophenoxy)ethanol is a drug that has been studied for the treatment of cancer. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells in animals by inhibiting their ability to synthesize DNA, RNA, and proteins. 2-(4-Aminophenoxy)ethanol also inhibits the production of a number of inflammatory mediators, such as TNF-α and IL-1β, which are involved in carcinogenesis. This drug is an acyltransferase inhibitor that prevents the formation of N-acetylated prodrugs from acetaminophen and other drugs. 2-(4-Aminophenoxy)ethanol also inhibits sulfation, which is required for the synthesis of glucuronide conjugates with amines and catechols. This inhibition may be responsible for its antiinflammatory effects.
