Product Information

• Name: 2-Amino-6-fluorobenzothiazole
• Synonyms: 6-Fluorobenzothiazole-2-ylamine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Amino-6-fluorobenzothiazole is a potent antimicrobial agent that has been shown to be effective against bacteria, such as P. aeruginosa, and fungi such as subtilis. It has also been shown to have cytotoxic effects on cervical cancer cells in the human body. 2-Amino-6-fluorobenzothiazole can be synthesized from 6-aminonicotinic acid and thiourea. The compound's molecular structure consists of a benzene ring with two nitro groups bonded to it and a sulfur atom bonded to the amine group on the benzene ring. This structure is similar to that of fluoroquinolones, but lacks the fluorine atom found in fluoroquinolones. 2-Amino-6-fluorobenzothiazole is not toxic to humans at doses up to 1000 mg/kg when given orally or intravenously.
