Description

5-Bromobenzo[d]oxazol-2-amine is a chemical that is used in the treatment of cancer. It is synthesized from benzoic acid and bromoacetonitrile. 5-Bromobenzo[d]oxazol-2-amine is an anticancer agent that has been shown to have a depressant activity on animal tissues, which may be due to its ability to neutralize cyanogen chloride, a chemical that reacts with organic solvents and produces toxic gases such as hydrogen cyanide. This drug also binds to DNA, preventing cell growth and causing cell death. 5-Bromobenzo[d]oxazol-2-amine can be used to treat cancer cells in mice and has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of MCT7 cells. It also inhibits the growth of human breast cancer cells by blocking protein synthesis at the ribosome level.
