Description:2-Amino-5-methylphenol is a diamine that forms a copper complex via intramolecular hydrogen bonding. It is used as a reagent in organic synthesis, such as the preparation of picolinic acid, and has also been studied for use in the treatment of bacterial infections. 2-Amino-5-methylphenol binds to the hydroxyl group at position 4 of the ribose ring of NADH and inhibits bacteria by binding to the enzyme that catalyzes the reaction between NADH and H+ to form NAD+. The inhibition of this enzyme prevents electron transport which leads to an accumulation of reactive oxygen species and cell death.
