Application

N6-Benzoyladenine is used in the organic synthesis of adenine derivative molecules such as bicyclic adenine nucleoside via a condensation reaction between L-threo-pentofuranose derivative 1 and 6-N-benzoyladenine and to produce oxy-peptide nucleic acids.

Biochem/physiol Actions

N6-Benzoyladenine comprises of adenine moiety and is a potent inhibitor of bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4). N6-Benzoyladenine modulates tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) levels. It elicits cytotoxicity in liver and ileum cancer cells and may serve as a potential candidate agent for cancer chemotherapy.

Synthesis of a 9-mer alpha-L-LNA (alpha-L-ribo configured locked nucleic acid) containing three 9-(2-O,4-C-methylene-alpha-L-ribofuranosyl)adenine nucleotide monomer(s) has been accomplished. The work involved synthesis of the bicyclic adenine nucleoside via a condensation reaction between L-threo-pentofuranose derivative 1 and 6-N-benzoyladenine followed by C2'-epimerization.
