CAS 13050-47-0: 3-Methylbenzohydrazide

3-Methyl-benzoylhydrazide is a chemical compound that has been shown to have antibacterial effects against Gram-positive bacteria. It has been found to inhibit the growth of chickpea, acrylonitrile, and subtilis at acidic pH levels. 3-Methyl-benzoylhydrazide inhibits bacterial growth by reacting with the enzyme protein imine (NAD+), which is required for oxidative metabolism in bacteria. This reaction results in the formation of an iminium ion, which is highly reactive and can lead to the destruction of DNA, RNA, and proteins. 3-Methyl-benzoylhydrazide also reacts with staphylococcus by inhibiting its growth at alkaline pH levels. This compound also has nutritional benefits because it contains amino acids such as cysteine and methionine.
