Description

2-Pyridinepropanol is a tetranuclear compound that contains two nitrogen atoms and two silver ions. It has been shown to be an inhibitor of arthropoda development in the laboratory. 2-Pyridinepropanol also has potent inhibitory activity against the growth of bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This compound was synthesized from 2-benzoylbenzoic acid, which is a product of the plant metabolism. The structure of this molecule was determined by X-ray crystallography and electrochemical studies.
2-Pyridinepropanol binds to the bacterial enzyme hydrogenase, which catalyzes the production of hydrogen gas, thereby inhibiting its activity (hydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyses the reduction of protons to hydrogen gas).
