Description

4-Bromoisophthalic acid is a molecule with a carboxyl group at one end, and a bromine and an isophthalic acid group at the other. It has been shown to bind to the 5-HT7 receptor, which regulates the release of glutamate in neurons and affects the concentration of Ca2+ within cells. 4-Bromoisophthalate inhibits bacterial enzyme carboxylesterase using a mechanism that involves hydrogen bonding interactions. This inhibition prevents the breakdown of 3-mercaptopropionic acid, which would otherwise inhibit Pparγ activation. The structural similarity between 4-bromoisophthalate and xanthinol nicotinate (XNT) was observed by FTIR spectroscopy, allowing for asymmetric synthesis of this molecule.
