Product Description
4-Propionamidophenol (compound 4a) is an inactive estrogen receptor ligand based on a diphenylamine backbone.
4,4'-Iminodiphenol (also known as 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenylamine) is an organic compound featuring two phenol groups connected by an imine (–NH–) linkage. It has a molecular formula of C12H11NO2 and a molecular weight of 201.22 g/mol. This bifunctional molecule is used in polymer chemistry and materials science as a building block for synthesizing advanced polymers and resins. In biological research, it is identified as an inactive estrogen receptor ligand based on a diphenylamine backbone.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
4,4'-Iminodiphenol has been identified as an inactive estrogen receptor ligand. It does not activate the estrogen receptor, making it useful as a negative control in studies investigating estrogen receptor signaling. Its primary utility is in materials science as a building block for polymers, where it contributes to the structural properties of the final material rather than interacting with biological targets.
ln Vitro
4,4'-Iminodiphenol is characterized as an inactive estrogen receptor ligand, meaning it shows no significant agonistic or antagonistic activity at the estrogen receptor in standard in vitro assays. Its biological inactivity in this context makes it a valuable negative control for experiments investigating estrogen receptor signaling. In materials science, its properties as a difunctional phenol allow it to act as a monomer in polymerization reactions.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity data for 4,4'-Iminodiphenol are not extensively reported, as its primary applications are in materials science and as an in vitro research tool. As an inactive estrogen receptor ligand, it is not expected to elicit significant in vivo hormonal effects. Its use in biological research is largely confined to in vitro assays where it serves as a control compound to validate the specificity of estrogen receptor-mediated responses.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding (non-cell) assays for 4,4'-Iminodiphenol typically involve radioligand binding studies to evaluate its interaction with the estrogen receptor. The receptor is incubated with increasing concentrations of the compound and a fixed concentration of a radiolabeled estrogen (e.g., ³H-estradiol) in binding buffer. Bound and free radioligand are separated, and radioactivity is measured. The compound's lack of significant binding or activity is confirmed, establishing it as an inactive ligand.
Cell Assay
For in vitro cell-based assays, cells expressing the estrogen receptor are cultured and treated with 4,4'-Iminodiphenol at various concentrations. Its inactivity is confirmed by measuring the expression of estrogen-responsive genes via qRT-PCR or by assessing cell proliferation. The compound shows no significant effect, validating its use as a negative control in studies of estrogen receptor signaling. Cell viability can be assessed using standard assays like MTT.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies with 4,4'-Iminodiphenol are not typically performed, as it is not a therapeutic candidate. Its use is confined to in vitro research as a negative control for estrogen receptor studies and as a building block in polymer chemistry. The compound is not intended for in vivo pharmacological evaluation, and no specific animal study protocols are available in the literature.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
4,4'-Iminodiphenol (CAS: 1752-24-5) has a molecular weight of 201.22 g/mol and a molecular formula of C12H11NO2. It is also known as 4-(4-hydroxyanilino)phenol or leucoindophenol. As a solid compound, it is typically stored under standard laboratory conditions. Its physicochemical properties are consistent with its use as a monomer in polymer synthesis and as a research chemical.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
4,4'-Iminodiphenol is considered to have a low toxicity profile, consistent with its use as a chemical intermediate and research compound. It is not intended for human therapeutic use. As an inactive estrogen receptor ligand, it does not pose hormonal risks. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound. No significant toxicity has been reported in the available literature.
Additional Infomation
4,4'-Iminodiphenol is an organic compound with the CAS number 1752-24-5, also known as 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenylamine. It is a key intermediate in the synthesis of polymers and resins. In biological research, it serves as an inactive estrogen receptor ligand and a useful negative control for studies of estrogen signaling. It is not an approved drug and is intended for research and industrial use only.
