2-Aminobenzophenone

<p>2-Aminobenzophenone is a molecule that is the product of the reaction between 2-benzoylbenzoic acid and diazonium salt. The molecule has a coordination geometry, which means it exhibits two N-N bonds. The molecule also has two amines, which are reactive groups that can form covalent bonds with other molecules. This molecule has been used for asymmetric synthesis in a number of reactions, such as the reaction between methyl ethyl ketones and phosphorus pentoxide to form picolinic acid. The mechanism of this reaction is as follows: +PCl5 → PCl3 + Cl 2CHC6H5 + PCl5 → (CHC6H5)2PCl2 + HCl The nitrogen atoms in the amine group undergo an addition reaction with phosphorus pentoxide to form an intermediate, which then reacts with the chloride ion to form picolinic acid.</p>

<p>Applications 2-Aminobenzophenone is a derivative of Benzophenone (B204980), used in the manufacturing of antihistamines, hypnotics, insecticides. 2-Aminobenzophenone was shown to exhibit modulation activity of GABAA receptor-mediated currents in isolated purkinje neurons.<br>References Kopanitsa, M.V., et al.: Neuropharmacol., 43, 764 (2002); Bringmann, G., et al.: J.
