CAS 182125-23-1: 5-(3-aminopropyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine

5-(3-Aminopropyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine dihydrochloride is a pyridinium salt that is used to synthesize pyrylium salts. It is also an activator for carbonic anhydrase and has been shown to interact with other moieties in the environment. 5-(3-Aminopropyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine dihydrochloride activates carbonic anhydrase by attacking the thiolate group of cysteine residues in the active site. This reaction leads to the formation of a covalent bond between the thiadiazole moiety and cysteine residue.
