Product Information

• Name: 1-(Dimethylsulfamoyl)imidazole
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1-(Dimethylsulfamoyl)imidazole is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of heterocycles. It has been shown to inhibit the activity of two enzymes, which are xanthine oxidase and nitric oxide synthase. 1-(Dimethylsulfamoyl)imidazole is synthesized by reacting 2-aminothiophene with methyl sulfonyl chloride in tetrahydrofuran. The yield of this reaction is low, which may be due to the imidazole ring being a poor nucleophile in this reaction. This chemical has been shown to have an inhibitory potency against xanthine oxidase and nitric oxide synthase, which may be due to its functional groups or dimethylformamide solvate state. The mechanism for 1-(dimethylsulfamoyl)imidazole's inhibition of these enzymes is not yet known.
