• Synonyms: 2-Amino-2'-fluoro-5-nitrobenzophenone(2-Amino-5-nitrophenyl)(2-fluorophenyl)methanone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Amino-5-nitro-2'-fluorobenzophenone is a prodrug that is activated by thiourea, a chemical agent that is used to break down the drug. It is an anti-inflammatory drug that acts as a selective COX inhibitor and has been shown to be effective in vivo against primary tumors. 2-Amino-5-nitro-2'-fluorobenzophenone has also been shown to have antiangiogenic properties and has been used to treat inflammatory diseases such as arthritis and psoriasis. This drug can be radiolabeled with carbon, fluorine, or iodine isotopes for use in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of primary tumors. The drug binds to response elements on cells through electrostatic interactions between the molecular orbitals of the 2 amino groups and the nucleophilic centers of these molecules.
