Description

Methyl 4-fluorobenzoate is a potent inhibitor of human cancer cells. It inhibits tyrosine kinases by binding to an imidazole group and forms a ruthenium complex in the presence of sodium carbonate. Methyl 4-fluorobenzoate has shown inhibitory activity against the amination reaction catalyzed by sulfoxide reductase, which is important for the synthesis of nucleic acids. This inhibition may be due to its ability to reduce oxidized species of thiols, sulfoxides, and disulfides. Further studies are needed to elucidate the mechanism by which methyl 4-fluorobenzoate interacts with redox potentials and functional theory.
