General description

2-Nitroimidazole is a natural antibiotic[1].

Application

2-Nitroimidazole was used in the synthesis of:
  • tert-butyl 2-(2-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethylcarbamate[2]
  • 1-(2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl)-2-nitro-1H-imidazole[2]
  • 2-fluoro-N-(2-(2-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl)acetamide[2]
  • 2-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl 2-fluoroacetate[2]
  • radiolabeling precursors - the bromo substituted analogs[2]
  • nitroimidazole substituted boronic acids, precursors for imaging hypoxic tissue[3]
  • potential site-selective radiosensitizers for estrogen receptor-rich tumors[4]

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Nitroimidazole (azomycin) derivatives labeled with radioisotopes have been developed as cancer imaging and radiotherapeutic agents based on the oncological hypoxic mechanism. By attaching nitroimidazole core with different functional groups, we synthesized new nitroimidazole derivatives and evaluated their potentiality as tumor

The role of hypoxia in radiation resistance is well established and many approaches to overcome hypoxia in tumours have been explored, with variable success. Two small molecule strategies for targeting hypoxia have dominated preclinical and clinical efforts. One approach has
