2-Iodo-4-methylaniline is an activated aromatic amine that can react with a metal ion to form a complex. This reaction produces a fluorescent molecule. 2-Iodo-4-methylaniline has been shown to have an interaction with the tuberculosis bacterium, which may be due to its ability to bind to the mycobacterium's cell wall and inhibit protein synthesis. The compound has also been found to react with nitroalkanes, which may account for its antibacterial activity.
