Description

4,7,13,16,21-Pentaoxa-1,10-diazabicyclo[8.8.5]tricosane (POD) is a nitrogen containing heterocycle that is used as a fungicide and insecticide. POD has significant antifungal activity against various species of fungi such as Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Candida albicans. It also inhibits the growth of some Gram-positive bacteria such as Clostridium botulinum. The compound may be used to treat conditions associated with elevated blood pressure by inhibiting the conversion of tyrosine to dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA). POD forms stable complexes with metal hydroxides in the presence of water and hydrochloric acid, which are important intermediates for chemical reactions. The frequency shift of positron emission in POD is due to the electron capture during positron annihilation.
