Description

2-Mercapto-6-(methoxymethyl)pyrimidin-4-ol is a solvate of (2S,3R,4R)-2-[(1E)-(hydroxyimino)methyl]-3-[(2S,5E,6E)-5-hydroxy-6-(methoxymethyl)pyrimidin-2-yl]oxycyclohexanone with 2.0 M HCl. The cocrystal structure of this compound has been studied by X-ray diffraction and the molecular geometry was determined to be tetrahedral. 2MP is an antithyroid drug that binds to the thyroid peroxidase enzyme and blocks the synthesis of thyroxine. Antithyroid drugs are used in the management of hyperthyroidism due to Graves' disease or toxic nodular goiter. Two theories have been proposed for its mechanism: introducing a sulfoxide group into the
