2-Pyrrolidinone

pyrrolidin-2-one

C4H7NO (85.0527612)


2-Pyrrolidinone is a lactam cyclization product of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) (PMID 10332870). Vigabatrin (VGB, an antiepileptic drug) increases human brain gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and the related metabolites, including 2-pyrrolidinone. Patients taking VGB are expected to have an increase of these metabolites (PMID 10403220, 10840398). 2-Pyrrolidone is an organic compound consisting of a five-membered lactam. It is a colorless liquid which is used in industrial settings as a high-boiling non-corrosive polar solvent for a wide variety of applications. It is miscible with a wide variety of other solvents including water, ethanol, diethyl ether, chloroform, benzene, ethyl acetate and carbon disulfide. Pyrrolidin-2-one is the simplest member of the class of pyrrolidin-2-ones, consisting of pyrrolidine in which the hydrogens at position 2 are replaced by an oxo group. The lactam arising by the formal intramolecular condensation of the amino and carboxy groups of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). It has a role as a polar solvent and a metabolite. 2-Pyrrolidinone is a natural product found in Ascochyta medicaginicola, Microtropis japonica, and other organisms with data available. The simplest member of the class of pyrrolidin-2-ones, consisting of pyrrolidine in which the hydrogens at position 2 are replaced by an oxo group. The lactam arising by the formal intramolecular condensation of the amino and carboxy groups of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Present in red ginseng 2-Pyrrolidone. CAS Common Chemistry.

MALEIMIDE

MALEIMIDE

C4H3NO2 (97.0163778)


Maleimide can be used for production of antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) which is used in cancer research. Maleimide also be leveraged for the preparation of fluorogenic probe, which is mainly used for the specific detection of thiol analytes[1][2].
