Product Information
- Thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-5-carbonitrile, 4-chloro-
4-Chlorothieno[2,3-b]pyridine-5-carbonitrile is a synthetic compound with an unknown mechanism of action. It has been used to inhibit the growth of yeast cells and Escherichia coli. The molecular structure of this compound has been determined by diffraction, yielding x-ray and infrared spectroscopy. 4-Chlorothieno[2,3-b]pyridine-5-carbonitrile also interacts with phosphoramidate nucleophiles, such as DNA and RNA. This interaction is possible through electrostatic interactions between the positively charged nitrogen atom in the drug and the negative phosphate group in nucleic acids.
