• Description: N-Boc-2-bromoethylamine is a chemical compound that is used as a gadolinium chelate. This molecule has been shown to be chemically stable and can be easily synthesized in high yield, which makes it an ideal candidate for use in cell culture experiments. The reaction solution of N-Boc-2-bromoethylamine with serine proteases, such as trypsin and chymotrypsin, has been shown to result in the formation of peptides with amide bonds at the C terminus. This process is called a "Michael addition." The 2-nitroimidazole group of N-Boc-2-bromoethylamine is potent inhibitor of protein kinases and has been shown to inhibit hypoxic tumor growth by inhibiting the uptake of glucose by cancer cells. It also has antimicrobial properties, acting as an affinity ligand for binding to bacterial or fungal cells.
