CAS 142-29-0: Cyclopentene

Cyclopentene is used in the production of cyclopentene oxide, ketamine, cyclopentyl phenol (disinfectant), aldehyde and cyclopentene glycol. It acts as a monomer and is utilized for the synthesis of plastics and in various chemical syntheses. It is also used in the investigation of [2+2] cycloaddition of diamond (001) surfaces with alkene. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Cyclopentene is a compound that has inhibitory properties against Cox-2. It has been shown to have a synergistic effect with vitamin C and the anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen, which may be due to its ability to inhibit the inducible form of Cox-2. Cyclopentene inhibits the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) by inhibiting cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), which is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of arachidonic acid to PGE2. Cyclopentene also inhibits nitric oxide synthase, leading to a decrease in reactive nitrogen species (RNS) and oxidative stress. This inhibition of COX-2 could lead to increased mitochondrial membrane potential and reduced apoptosis.
