4-(Dimethylamino)azobenzene

N,N-dimethyl-4-[(Z)-2-phenyldiazen-1-yl]aniline

C14H15N3 (225.126591)


4-(Dimethylamino)azobenzene is formerly used as a food dye, use discontinued.Methyl yellow, or C.I. 11020, is a chemical compound which may be used as a pH indicator. In aqueous solution at low pH, methyl yellow appears red. Between pH 2.9 and 4.0, methyl yellow undergoes a transition, to become yellow above pH 4.0. As "butter yellow" the agent had been used as a food additive before its toxicity was recognized (Opie EL).

Sulfasalazine

2-hydroxy-5-[(E)-2-{4-[(pyridin-2-yl)sulfamoyl]phenyl}diazen-1-yl]benzoic acid

C18H14N4O5S (398.06848740000004)


Sulfasalazine is only found in individuals that have used or taken this drug. It is a drug that is used in the management of inflammatory bowel diseases. Its activity is generally considered to lie in its metabolic breakdown product, 5-aminosalicylic acid (see mesalamine) released in the colon. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p907)The mode of action of Sulfasalazine or its metabolites, 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) and sulfapyridine (SP), is still under investigation, but may be related to the anti-inflammatory and/or immunomodulatory properties that have been observed in animal and in vitro models, to its affinity for connective tissue, and/or to the relatively high concentration it reaches in serous fluids, the liver and intestinal walls, as demonstrated in autoradiographic studies in animals. In ulcerative colitis, clinical studies utilizing rectal administration of Sulfasalazine, SP and 5-ASA have indicated that the major therapeutic action may reside in the 5-ASA moiety. The relative contribution of the parent drug and the major metabolites in rheumatoid arthritis is unknown.

Olsalazine

5-[(E)-2-(3-carboxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)diazen-1-yl]-2-hydroxybenzoic acid

C14H10N2O6 (302.05388400000004)


Olsalazine is an anti-inflammatory drug used in the treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. Olsalazine is a derivative of salicylic acid. Inactive by itself (it is a prodrug), it is converted by the bacteria in the colon to mesalamine. Mesalamine works as an anti-inflammatory agent in treating inflammatory diseases of the intestines.

Balsalazide

3-(2-{4-[(2-carboxyethyl)carbamoyl]phenyl}hydrazinylidene)-6-oxocyclohexa-1,4-diene-1-carboxylic acid

C17H15N3O6 (357.096081)


Balsalazide is an anti-inflammatory drug used in the treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease. It is sold under the name Colazal in the US and Colazide in the UK. The chemical name is (E)-5-[[-4-(2-carboxyethyl) aminocarbonyl] phenyl]azo] -2-hydroxybenzoic acid. It is usually administered as the disodium salt. Balsalazide releases mesalazine, also known as 5-aminosalicylic acid, or 5-ASA, in the large intestine. Its advantage over that drug in the treatment of Ulcerative colitis is believed to be the delivery of the active agent past the small intestine to the large intestine, the active site of ulcerative colitis.

C22H16N4O (352.1324046)


Cerasin, also known as sudan iii or d and c red #17, is a member of the class of compounds known as azobenzenes. Azobenzenes are organonitrogen aromatic compounds that contain a central azo group, where each nitrogen atom is conjugated to a benzene ring. Cerasin is practically insoluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Cerasin can be found in sour cherry, which makes cerasin a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. Uses include: An alternative to beeswax in ointments (Historic) Laboratory-supply bottles for small amounts of hydrofluoric acid, which were made of ceresin wax; this was before polyethylene became commonplace .
