Product Information

• Name: 3-Fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile is a novel androgen receptor modulator that binds to the androgen receptor with high affinity and selectivity. 3-Fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile has been shown to have agonistic activity in vivo. It has been proposed as an alternative to testosterone for the treatment of muscle wasting, osteoporosis, and other hormone deficiencies. 3-Fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile is metabolized by CYP3A4 enzymes, which may be modified to improve its metabolic stability and thus increase its bioavailability. In addition, modifications of 3-fluoro-2-methylbenzonitrile may be made that would improve its pharmacokinetic profile (e.g., naphthalene profiles).
