Product Information
4-Acetylimidazole is a histidine analogue that has been shown to have anticancer activity in breast cancer cells. It can react with amines and form imidazoles. The hydroxyl group on the 4-position of the imidazole ring is able to undergo dehydration, which leads to the formation of a chloride ion. This reaction mechanism is reversible and can be used in organic synthesis. 4-Acetylimidazole can also act as an h2 receptor antagonist, although it does not bind to the zwitterionic site of the h2 receptor. NMR spectra show that 4-acetylimidazole exists as a zwitterion in water solution, but becomes a monovalent ion when dissolved in an organic solvent such as methanol or acetone. 4-Acetylimidazole is chemically stable and does not react with poloxamer.
