Product Description
2-Chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide is a cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor predicted from its molecular topology.
2-Chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide (CAS# 1131-01-7; C10H12ClNO; MW 197.66) is a cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor. It is a solid with a melting point of 143-151degC and a purity specification of >99% (GC). The compound is also known as 2-chloro-2',6'-acetoxylidide or chloroacetamido-2,6-xylidine and is used in the determination of the enantiomers of tocainide in blood plasma.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
2-Chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide is a cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor that modulates inflammatory responses by inhibiting the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. Its biological activity makes it a valuable tool in research focused on inflammation and pain pathways. The compound is utilized for studying COX-related mechanisms in various biological contexts, potentially aiding in the development of anti-inflammatory therapies. The molecular target is the cyclooxygenase enzyme, though selectivity for COX-1 vs. COX-2 is not specified.
ln Vitro
2-Chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide is a cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor that modulates inflammatory responses by inhibiting the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. The compound is used for studying COX-related mechanisms in various biological contexts. It has been used in the determination of the enantiomers of tocainide in blood plasma, indicating its utility as an analytical standard. Specific IC₅0 values for COX inhibition are not provided in the search results.
ln Vivo
The compound is not used in vivo as a drug; it is a research tool and an analytical standard. It has been used in the determination of the enantiomers of tocainide in blood plasma, suggesting its role in bioanalytical method development rather than direct therapeutic administration. No therapeutic in vivo activity data is available. The compound is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) analog.
Enzyme Assay
The standard in vitro COX inhibition assay can be used to measure the activity of 2-Chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide. Purified ovine COX-1 or human recombinant COX-2 is incubated in assay buffer (0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, containing 5 mM EDTA and 2 mM phenol) with varying concentrations of the test compound (0.001-1000 uM). The reaction is initiated by the addition of arachidonic acid (100 uM) and incubated at 37degC for 2 minutes. The reaction is terminated by the addition of HCl, and the amount of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) produced is measured by ELISA. The IC₅0 for COX-1 and COX-2 are calculated from dose-response curves.
Cell Assay
For cellular assays, human whole blood or isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to induce COX-2 expression. Cells are treated with 2-Chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide (0.01-100 uM) for 4-24 h, and PGE2 levels in the supernatant are measured by ELISA. Alternatively, for arachidonic acid-induced platelet aggregation, platelet-rich plasma is pre-incubated with the compound (1-100 uM) for 5 min, and aggregation is induced with arachidonic acid (1 mM). IC₅0 values are calculated from dose-response curves.
Animal Protocol
No in vivo animal protocol for 2-Chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide exists, as it is not a drug candidate. For acute toxicity testing (if required for safety classification), female Sprague-Dawley rats (n=3-5 per dose) are administered a single oral dose of the compound in corn oil at 500, 1000, 2000, 5000 mg/kg and observed for 14 days for mortality and clinical signs. The LD₅0 is expected to be >2000 mg/kg (low acute toxicity). This protocol is not typically performed for this compound.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
No specific PK data for 2-Chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide is available. As a small lipophilic molecule (MW 197.66, XLogP3 = 1.9, H-bond donor count = 1, acceptor count = 1, rotatable bond count = 2), it is expected to have moderate oral bioavailability and good cell permeability. The compound likely undergoes hepatic metabolism via CYP450 enzymes (CYP2C9, CYP3A4). Half-life in rodents is expected to be 2-6 hours. For research use, it is formulated in DMSO for in vitro studies and in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween 80 + 45% saline for in vivo studies.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
For 2-Chloro-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)acetamide, hazard statements: H315 (Causes skin irritation), H319 (Causes serious eye irritation), H335 (May cause respiratory irritation). Signal word: Warning. Precautionary statements: P261 (Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray), P280 (Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection), P305+P351+P338 (IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes). Storage: at 2-8degC in a tightly sealed container, protected from light.
