Produktinformation

• Name: 2-Hydroxy-2-methyl-4-phenylbutanoic acid
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Naproxen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used to treat pain and inflammation. It inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase, which is required for the production of prostaglandins. Naproxen has high enantioselectivity when reacting with nitriles and dinitriles because it acts as a diacid or amid acid in these reactions. This means that naproxen preferentially reacts with the 2-hydroxy group of an acyl chloride or ester, forming an amide or amidine respectively. It also has an ability to inhibit bacterial strains such as those from Streptococcus pyogenes and Staphylococcus aureus. Naproxen may act by substituting for the carboxylic acid groups of the bacterial cell wall, where it can form a covalent bond with glutamic acid residues on the cell wall surface.
