AC-17004 - n-23-epoxypropylphthalimide-95 | 5455-98-1

<p>N-Glycidyl phthalimide is a dithiocarbamic compound that has been shown to inhibit blood coagulation. It is synthesized by the reaction of chloroacetic acid with phthalic anhydride and glycine, which leads to the formation of a homochiral product. N-Glycidyl phthalimide has been shown to be effective in vivo in animal models and has biological relevance, as it can be enzymatically hydrolyzed to form 5-hydroxytetrahydrofolate, which is necessary for DNA synthesis. The rate enhancement of this process may be due to the carbonyl group on the molecule, which interacts with enzymes such as carboxypeptidase A and cathepsin C.</p>
