Product Information

• Name: 4-Bromopyrazole
• Synonyms: 4-Bromo-1H-pyrazoleNSC 522023
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Bromopyrazole is a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound that has been shown to bind to mitochondrial proteins and inhibit the respiratory chain. This inhibition leads to the accumulation of hydrogen ions, which in turn causes an increase in proton concentration. The resulting pH imbalance disrupts cellular processes. 4-Bromopyrazole is soluble in organic solvents and reacts with metal ions, such as zinc, copper, or nickel, forming coordination compounds. These compounds are insoluble in water and can be used to extract other metals from solution. The reaction mechanism for 4-bromopyrazole is not well understood; however it is believed that when this compound binds to a fatty acid it forms a covalent bond through a proton transfer reaction.
