Produktinformation

• Name: Acetanilide
• Synonyme: N-PhenylacetamideN-Acetyl-benzenamineAntifebrin
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Aniline derivative; analgesic; anti-pyretic; electroosmotic flow marker.An organic compound primarily used as a precursor in the synthesis of dyes and pharmaceuticals. It is derived from aniline, an aromatic amine that is acetylated to produce the product in question. Acetanilide functions by inhibiting the precursor to prostaglandins, providing analgesic and antipyretic effects through its action on cyclooxygenase enzymes, although this mode of action posed historical safety concerns.Although once widely used in medicine, the application of acetanilide in modern pharmaceuticals has declined due to its potential for causing methemoglobinemia and other toxic effects. Currently, it serves as an important intermediate in the chemical industry, particularly in the manufacture of rubber accelerators and a variety of dyes. Scientists and industry professionals continue to explore its derivatives for safer and more effective alternatives in pain and fever relief, noting its role as a cornerstone in the development of safer analgesics like acetaminophen.
