Chemical Structure
EPI-589
- CAS No.: 1147883-03-1
- Formula:C14H19NO4
- Molecular Weight:265.30
IUPAC Name: (R)-2-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-(2,4,5-trimethyl-3,6-dioxocyclohexa-1,4-dien-1-yl)butanamide
InChIKey: BAANPNDZFYBQIB-CQSZACIVSA-N
SMILES: CC1=C(C(C(CC[C@@](O)(C(N)=O)C)=C(C1=O)C)=O)C
Biological Activity: EPI-589, a quinone derivative, is a safe and well tolerated oxidoreductase enzyme inhibitor and a free radical scavenger, with blood-brain barrier permeable and orally available. EPI-589 is a redox-active neuroprotectant that effectively delays the symptoms of motor neuron disease in wobbler mice. EPI-589 can be used in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) research[1][2][3][4].
