CAS 18076-61-4: 1H-benzotriazol-4-amine

1H-1,2,3-Benzotriazol-4-amine is a hydroxylated compound that belongs to the group of benzotriazole derivatives. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of cells in culture by binding to the nitrogen atoms in glutamate and inhibiting the production of nitric oxide synthase. 1H-1,2,3-Benzotriazol-4-amine also has binding constants for certain growth regulators that are 10 times higher than for other benzotriazoles. In vitro assays have shown that 1H-1,2,3-benzotriazol-4-amine is a potent corrosion inhibitor with an optical purity greater than 98%. The molecule was modeled using molecular modeling software and found to be stable when exposed to light. The molecule has also been tested on Sprague Dawley rats and found not to cause skin reactions.
