Description

Malonamide is a natural product with biological properties that include anti-inflammatory activity. It is a receptor antagonist that binds to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and blocks the binding of acetylcholine, thereby inhibiting muscle contraction. Malonamide has been shown to have good chemical stability and phosphorus pentoxide tolerance. This compound also has high steric interactions with halogens, which allows it to act as an effective antiseptic agent for wounds or skin infections caused by bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Malonamide has been shown to be active against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including methicillin resistant strains. Malonamide binds to copper ions and forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the nitrogen atoms in the molecule. This interaction stabilizes its conformation and leads to increased chemical stability in comparison with other nitrogen containing drugs.
