Description

2-Phenoxybutanoic acid is a polymerase chain inhibitor that is used to study the function of RNA polymerase. The inhibition of this enzyme results in the inability to synthesize messenger RNA, which blocks protein synthesis and cell growth. It also inhibits inhibitory proteins and has been shown to be effective against autoimmune diseases. 2-Phenoxybutanoic acid can be prepared by reacting picolinic acid with an organic base such as potassium hydroxide in water vapor. The resulting product can then be purified by converting it into its metal salt, which can be analyzed using thin layer chromatography.
2-Phenoxybutanoic acid inhibits the activity of nitrogen atoms in fatty acids at the C2 position, leading to a decreased production of prostaglandin E2 and leukotriene B4. This may lead to an improvement in inflammatory processes related to tissue culture.
