Product Information

• Name: 7-Fluoro-2-methylquinoline
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 7-Fluoro-2-methylquinoline is a multistep synthetic compound that belongs to the family of quinoxalines. It has been shown to have potent antibacterial activity against a wide range of bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. 7-Fluoro-2-methylquinoline was developed as an analog of the natural product quinoxaline. The key step in its synthesis is the reaction between an aldehyde and hydroxyalkylating reagent in the presence of iron catalyst. This process results in the formation of functional groups such as hydroxyls, alkoxy, or halogens.
