Description:
5-Bromocytosine is a nucleoside analog that inhibits the replication of RNA and DNA viruses. It binds to the 5-hydroxymethylcytosine residue in the viral dna duplexes, forming an acid complex. The reaction products are then cleaved by cellular enzymes, which leads to termination of the viral genetic material. 5-Bromocytosine can also be converted into a tautomeric form (5-bromouracil) by electron transfer. The vibrational frequencies of this tautomer are different from those of thymine, so it has been used for vibrational spectroscopy studies as well as FTIR spectroscopy studies.
