General description

Chemical structure: aziridine

Application

A polyfunctional alkylating agent

Biochem/physiol Actions

The unstable nitrogen-carbon groups alkylate with DNA which causes irreversible DNA damage. They stop tumor growth by crosslinking guanine nucleobases in DNA double-helix strands, directly attacking DNA. The DNA strands are unable to uncoil and separate which halts cell division.

Analysis Note

Solubility - freely soluble in water , in chloroform and in ethanol (96%)

Other Notes

Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
