Product Information
(5-Chloropyrimidin-2-yl)methanamine is a pyrimidine derivative that inhibits the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase, which catalyzes the conversion of dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate. This reaction is essential for the synthesis of purines and thymine, one of the four bases in DNA. (5-Chloropyrimidin-2-yl)methanamine also inhibits protein synthesis and has been shown to have antitumor effects.
