Description

4-Aminoazobenzene is an azole compound that is structurally similar to diazonium salts. It is an enzyme inducer, which means that it induces the activity of other enzymes. 4-Aminoazobenzene has been shown to increase the activity of DNA polymerase and RNA polymerase in vitro and also inhibits the growth of cultured human cancer cells. This drug has shown genotoxic effects in mice and rats, which may be due to its ability to bind to DNA or form cross-links with DNA. 4-Aminoazobenzene has been used as a chemical intermediate for dyes, photographic chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. It is chemically stable in aqueous solutions at low pH levels but decomposes at higher pH levels or under alkaline conditions. The nitrogen atoms in this compound are not essential for its chemical stability, but are important for binding with monoclonal antibodies such as anti-IgG antibody.
