Product Information

• Name: Desmethoxy iopromide
• Synonyms: 5-(Acetylamino)-N1,N3-bis(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-2,4,6-triiodo-N1-methyl-1,3-benzene-dicarboxamideIopromide related compound B
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Desmethoxy iopromide is a polymeric chemical compound that has hydrophilic properties. It is often used as a diagnostic agent and a radiocontrast agent because it reacts with water molecules to form high-molecular-weight hydrophilic polymers. These polymers can be detected by various chemical, physical, and optical methods. Desmethoxy iopromide is believed to react with the electron beam of an x-ray machine when exposed to ionizing radiation. The reaction produces small amounts of iodine gas which are detected by the machine and converted into an image on photographic film or a digital detector. Desmethoxy iopromide is also used in analytical chemistry for phase extraction and multicyclic reactions.
