- Benzamide, 2-Hydroxy-5-Nitro-
- 2-HYDROXY-5-NITROBENZAMIDE
2-Hydroxy-5-nitrobenzamide (2HNB) is a nitrobenzamide derivative that has been shown to have tuberculostatic activity in vitro. This drug binds to the mycobacterial cell wall, causing the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds with the nitro group and oriented dipoles with the 2-hydroxy group. The 2HNB molecule is predicted to have antimycobacterial activity through intermolecular hydrogen bonding, which may be due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds with nitrous groups and oriented dipoles.
