Información del producto

• Nombre: 1-Bromo-4-methylpentane
• Marca: Biosynth
• Descripción: 1-Bromo-4-methylpentane is a long-chain, dehydrohalogenated pheromone that has been shown to inhibit the growth of Leishmania by binding to the topoisomerase enzyme. This compound is synthesized from heptadecane and chloroacetonitrile in the presence of cuprate and tetrahydrofuran. 1-Bromo-4-methylpentane has also been shown to be an alkylating agent. It reacts with chloride, converting it into chloroform. The bromine atom on the carbon adjacent to the double bond then attacks a fatty acid, adding it to the molecule. The resulting alkoxycarbonyl group then reacts with a second fatty acid molecule, yielding a new 1-bromoalkoxycarbonyl group.
