Building Blocks

Propionamide is an amide that inhibits bacterial growth by binding to the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase and preventing transcription. It is used in treatment trials for bacterial infections. Propionamide has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria in vitro and in vivo, as well as to have an inhibitory effect on experimental solubility data. The chemical properties of propionamide are consistent with a potential use as a drug for treating metabolic disorders, such as diabetes mellitus and obesity.

7-Methylindole is a biochemical substance that is synthesized in the body. It is produced in the liver, and it can be found in the brain, heart, and kidney. 7-Methylindole has been shown to have cancer-fighting properties. 7-Methylindole binds to DNA by methylating nucleic acid bases, which causes a change in the genetic code. This leads to tumor cells being more sensitive to treatment with other substances that inhibit DNA synthesis or repair, such as anthranilate and 5-methoxyindole.

Formamide is a colorless gas with a pungent, irritating odor. It is used as an antiseptic and an intermediate in the production of other organic compounds. Formamide has been shown to be effective against animal-derived pathogens such as Covid-19 and influenza A/H5N1, and it has been proposed as a potential treatment for pandemic influenza. Formamide reacts with chlorine to produce formate salt (formic acid), which can then be converted into amines or hexamethylphosphoramide. The reaction rate of formamide increases with increasing temperature, but decreases with increasing concentration of hydrogen.
Formamide is also used as a solvent in microscopy to dissolve tissue samples for analysis by electron microscopy techniques.

2-Chlorophenyl)(4-chlorophenyl)methanol is a chemical intermediate that can be used for the synthesis of complex compounds. This material has been shown to be a useful scaffold for making new molecules and it is also a versatile building block for organic synthesis. It can be used as a reagent in organic reactions and it is also a speciality chemical with high quality. CAS No. 43171-49-9

1-Pyrenebutyric acid is a sodium salt that belongs to the group of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) reagents. It is used in PCR as a fluorescent probe for detecting the presence of dinucleotide phosphate and covalent linkages. 1-Pyrenebutyric acid has been shown to be a potential biomarker for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and can be used as an optical sensor for optimal concentration. This compound has also been used in biological studies to detect the presence of human immunoglobulin, which binds to it with high affinity. 1-Pyrenebutyric acid undergoes a phase transition at a temperature between -190 and -195 degrees Celsius, which makes it useful as a fluorescence dye.

Non-proteinogenic amino acid; Inhibitor of glutamine synthetase

4-(1-Hydroxy-ethyl)-benzoic acid (4-HBA) is a hydrophobic compound that is an inhibitor of cytochrome P450, which is an enzyme system in the liver and other organs. The inhibitory activity of 4-HBA is due to its binding to the active site of cytochrome P450. This molecule has been shown to be effective against ferredoxin and putidaredoxin, which are enzymes that play a role in electron transfer reactions. 4-(1-Hydroxy-ethyl)-benzoic acid binds to the residue on these enzymes without any effect on their function.
