3,4-Diaminotoluene is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of organic compounds called diamines. It is a model system for the study of antitumour activity and palladium complexes. 3,4-Diaminotoluene has shown tuberculostatic activity in mice and rats by inhibiting the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This compound also has an acylation reaction with chloride in vitro, which can be used to prepare quinoline derivatives that have been shown to have antitumour effects. The molecular structure of 3,4-Diaminotoluene was determined using quantum chemistry calculations and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy data obtained from coordination complexes.
