Description

2-Amino-4-chloro-6-methylpyrimidine is an antimicrobial agent that belongs to the group of diamines tetraacetic. It is a molecule with two amine groups and four chlorine atoms, which can be found in fructus (e.g., wheat straw) and other plants. 2-Amino-4-chloro-6-methylpyrimidine has been shown to have strong antibacterial activity against Gram positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Clostridium perfringens, but not against Gram negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli. The compound also has structural features that are similar to ethylene diamine and carbonyl group, which may account for its hydrogen bonding interactions with amino acids in proteins.
