Description

Methyl 2-fluoroacetate is a nucleophilic drug that has been shown to cause conformational changes in the target protein. It has been shown to be water-soluble, and can be used as a probe for studying biological processes. Methyl 2-fluoroacetate has been shown to be effective against papillary muscle, and is a potential drug for treating cardiac conditions. The mechanism of action of methyl 2-fluoroacetate is not well understood, but it is thought to involve the formation of an alkoxy radical. The molecular structure of methyl 2-fluoroacetate was studied using vibrational spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra. This drug was also found to inhibit the growth of tissue culture cells at low concentrations, which may indicate that it can affect cell function.
