• Description: 4,5-Dimethoxy-2-nitroaniline (DMNA) is a nucleophilic compound that reacts with glyoxylate to form formic acid. DMNA has been shown to be an effective anti-malarial agent, as it inhibits the growth of leishmania and related protozoans. The mechanism of action is not fully understood but may be due to its ability to produce reactive oxygen species. DMNA also inhibits bacterial growth in vitro by interfering with DNA synthesis and protein synthesis. DMNA has been shown to have a cytotoxic effect on mammalian cells, which may be due to the production of free radicals from its reaction with formic acid.
