Product Information
Name:2,7-Bis(bromomethyl)naphthalene
Brand:Biosynth
Description:2,7-Bis(bromomethyl)naphthalene is a ligand that interacts with metal ions. It has been shown to cleave DNA and RNA in the presence of light and anions. 2,7-Bis(bromomethyl)naphthalene binds to the termini of DNA and RNA by hydrogen bonding or ionic interactions with the negatively charged phosphate groups. This interaction leads to the release of anions, which cause DNA repair enzymes to bind at the site of damage. This process can be used as a catalyst for chemical reactions where it is desirable to have one reactant remain intact while another reacts. 2,7-Bis(bromomethyl)naphthalene also fluoresces and can be used as a photophysical probe for studying DNA repair activities in cells or other biological systems.
