Description

Triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate is an antimicrobial agent that inhibits the transfer of electrons from one molecule to another. It has been shown to be effective against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate binds to the bacterial enzyme, Jak1, which is involved in the formation of cytokines and interleukins. This binding inhibits the production of these molecules, leading to cell death by apoptosis. The use of triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate as a research tool has facilitated its discovery as a potential anti-inflammatory drug for autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes mellitus and rheumatoid arthritis. Triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate can be used to inhibit amide synthesis, which may have applications in the study of carbohydrate chemistry and nitrogen atoms in biological systems. This compound has also been used
