Most of the compounds have physiologically active properties, and their biological properties are often attributed to the heteroatoms contained in their molecules, and most of these heteroatoms also appear in cyclic structures. A Journal, Acta Poloniae Pharmaceutica called Kinetic studies of photodegradation of nitroimidazole derivatives in solutions, Author is Marciniec, Barbara; Bugaj, Andrezej, which mentions a compound: 4897-25-0, SMILESS is C1=NC(=C(Cl)[N]1C)[N+]([O-])=O, Molecular C4H4ClN3O2, Recommanded Product: 4897-25-0.
Kinetics of the photodegradation of metronidazole, ornidazole, and tinidazole as well as of 1-methyl-4-nitro-5-chloro-, 1-methyl-4-nitro-5-hydroxy-, 1-methyl-4-nitro-5-mercapto-, and 2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole was studied in aqueous solutions The process was a 1st temporal order reaction with a complex mechanism. A linear dependence was found between the t0.5 values and the squared reciprocal of electron d. Photochem. stability of the investigated nitroimidazoles depended on electrophilicity of the substituent on C(5).
Different reactions of this compound(5-Chloro-1-methyl-4-nitroimidazole)Recommanded Product: 4897-25-0 require different conditions, so the reaction conditions are very important.
