Precursors

7-Methoxy-1-naphthylacetonitrile
Catalog No: CFN90086

7-Methoxy-1-naphthyl-acetonitrile is an important intermediate in the preparation of anti-depression drugs.

5'-Deoxy-5-fluoro-N-[(pentyloxy)carbonyl]cytidine 2',3'-diacetate
Catalog No: CFN90095

5'-Deoxy-5-fluoro-N-[(pentyloxy)carbonyl]cytidine 2',3'-diacetate,which is a key intermediate of capecitabine.

2'-Aminoacetophenone
Catalog No: CFN00014

A new route to oxcarbazepine (Trileptal), the most widely prescribed antiepileptic drug, starting from commercially available 2'-aminoacetophenone and 1,2-dibromobenzene, is reported.

Hypotaurine
Catalog No: CFN00019

Hypotaurine is a precursor of taurine and an antioxidant, intracellular hypotaurine is mainly supplied to placental trophoblasts by transfer from extracellular fluid across the plasma membrane, and may play a role in cell protection by scavenging reactive oxygen species. Hypotaurine also suppresses acute, inflammatory, and neuropathic pain, may regulate nociceptive transmission physiologically by activating glycinergic neurons in the spinal cord, is a promising candidate for treating various pain states.Hypotaurine/taurine synthesis strongly inhibits cysteinesulfinate decarboxylase (pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent enzyme) as well as cystathionine γ-lyase. Hypotaurine and raffinose supplementation in semen extenders provide a protection of sperm parameters against cryopreservation injury.

8-Amino-7-oxononanoic acid
Catalog No: CFN00051

8-Amino-7-oxononanoic acid is a precursor of 7,8-Diaminopelargonic acid (DAPA), and 7,8-diaminopelargonic acid aminotransferase (DAPA AT) is a potential drug target in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
