Description

4-Aminoquinaldine is a metastable redox potential compound that has been shown to reversibly reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential in leishmania. It also has been shown to have antimicrobial properties and is able to inhibit the growth of bacteria through hydrogen bonding interactions. 4-Aminoquinaldine is most effective against gram-positive bacteria and has an acidic pH, with a pKa of 3.4. The reaction mechanism for 4-aminoquinaldine involves nucleophilic attack at the C5 position of the quinolinium ring followed by elimination of H2O from the S2 position.
