2-Chlorothioxanthen-9-one

<p>2-Chlorothioxanthone is a chlorinated derivative of the thioxanthone family. It is used as a coating for metal surfaces, and is also used to control corrosion and prevent environmental pollution due to its activity as an inhibitor of fatty acid synthesis. 2-Chlorothioxanthone has been shown to bind with fatty acids in the mitochondrial membrane, which leads to inhibition of ATP production and mitochondrial membrane potential. This compound is not active against cancer cells, but it does exhibit low toxicity and low energy. The drug has a pharmacokinetic profile that includes a long half-life, high solubility in water, and rapid absorption from the gastrointestinal tract.</p>
