General description

5-Mercapto-1-methyltetrazole is a heterocyclic thiol derivative. It forms dimeric or tetrameric complexes with trimethylgallium.

Application

5-Mercapto-1-methyltetrazole may be employed as heterocyclic ligand to study the geometry and stereochemical activity of the lone pair at the lead atom in hemi- and holo-directed lead(II) complexes. It may be used in the chemical modification of submicron particles of mesoporous MSU-2 silica and SBA-15 mesoporous silica.

The disulfiram-like effect of various beta-lactam antibiotics containing N-methyltetrazolethiol (NMTT) on the alcohol-metabolizing system was studied using rats. Their administration caused decreased activities in low Km aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) and acetaldehyde oxidation in the liver, with marked depression from several

A SBA-15 mesoporous silica has been chemically modified with 5-mercapto-1-methyltetrazole. The newly synthesized material (MTTZ-SBA-15) has been characterized, by powder X-ray diffraction, N(2) adsorption, FT-IR, (13)C NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis, and used to preconcentrate Zn(II) in water samples.

The N-methylthiotetrazole side chain (NMTT) that is present on several cephalosporins has been implicated in the development of antibiotic-associated hypoprothrombinemia. A randomized three-way crossover trial was conducted to compare the release of the NMTT side chain from three NMTT-containing antibiotics.

The effect of biliary diversion on the ability of cefamandole, a methyltetrazole-thiol (MTT) containing antibiotic, to alter both hepatic vitamin K metabolism and the gamma-carboxylation of glutamic acid were examined in the rat, in order to understand the hypoprothrombinemia associated
