• Marca: Biosynth
• Descripción: 2-Hydroxy-4-nitrobenzonitrile is a nitrile derivative that has an antibacterial activity. This compound interacts with the pyochelin, a siderophore in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The antibiotic inhibits the uptake of pyochelin by the bacteria and causes cell death by inhibiting the synthesis of proteins necessary for bacterial growth. 2-Hydroxy-4-nitrobenzonitrile can be used as a potential stabilizer for materials such as polystyrene and polyurethane which are susceptible to degradation by hydrolysis or oxidation. In addition, this compound is also useful in gram-negative bacterium due to its ability to inhibit their growth by binding to their ribosomes. The conformational studies have been shown to be important for understanding the biological properties of this molecule.
