Imidazol-1-yl-acetic acid
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Imidazol-1-yl-acetic acid is a BRS-3 agonist that mediates anorectic effects through activation of orphan G protein-coupled receptors (Orphan GPCR) in peripheral tissues; it also serves as a green, water-soluble, recyclable bifunctional organocatalyst for transformations such as Biginelli multicomponent reactions and epoxide ring opening. Imidazol-1-yl-acetic acid is used in the study of obesity.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Imidazol-1-ylacetic acid derivatives act as BRS-3 agonists, among which 2c exhibits the highest potency (human EC50 = 1 nM, mouse EC50 = 3 nM)[1].
For imidazol-1-ylacetic acid derivatives, the acetic acid group on the more sterically hindered nitrogen atom (compound 8) is more favorable for BRS-3 agonist activity than the acetic acid group on the less sterically hindered nitrogen atom (compound 9)[1].
