Description

3,3-Dimethylglutaric Anhydride is a molecule that belongs to the group of daptomycin analogues. It has shown promising in vitro activity against cancer cells and is currently being investigated for its potential as a novel chemotherapeutic agent. The synthesis of this compound involves a Friedel-Crafts reaction, which creates a five-membered ring by reacting two carbonyl groups with an alkyl halide or phenyl sulfonium salt. 3,3-Dimethylglutaric Anhydride has been shown to bind to 5-HT1A receptors and inhibit their function. This compound also interacts with phosphate groups on proteins, creating a phosphate derivative. This interaction may be due to its ability to form an electrochemical bond with the phosphate group.
