Product Description
4-Bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde is a biochemical compound that may be utilized as a biomaterial or organic/chemical reagent for biomedical research.
4-Bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (CAS 22532-62-3) is a substituted salicylaldehyde with the molecular formula C7H5BrO2 and a molecular weight of approximately 197 g/mol. It appears as an off-white crystalline powder. This compound is used in the synthesis of BIIB042, a γ-secretase modulator. Derivatives of this compound have shown competitive inhibition of GABA-T (GABA transaminase) and SSADH (succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase), suggesting potential use in designing drugs for conditions related to the GABAergic system, such as epilepsy, anxiety, and sleep disorders. It is also used in the synthesis of azides.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
4-Bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde does not have a specific biological target itself. It is a synthetic intermediate used to prepare bioactive compounds. Derivatives of this compound inhibit GABA-T and SSADH, enzymes involved in GABA metabolism. Inhibition of GABA-T increases GABA levels in the brain, while inhibition of SSADH affects the GABA shunt pathway. These activities suggest potential applications in neurological disorders.
ln Vitro
It is a crucial starting point and intermediate for the production of organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agricultural compounds, and colors.
In vitro, derivatives of 4-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde have shown competitive inhibition of GABA-T and SSADH. This inhibition suggests potential use in designing drugs for conditions related to the GABAergic system, such as epilepsy, anxiety, and sleep disorders. The parent compound is used as a synthetic intermediate for these derivatives.
ln Vivo
In vivo data for 4-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde are limited as it is a chemical intermediate. Drug candidates synthesized from this compound, such as γ-secretase modulators, may be evaluated in animal models for neurological or other indications. The compound itself is not administered to animals as a test compound.
Enzyme Assay
4-Bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde is not typically used in cell-free enzyme/receptor binding assays. Its role is as a synthetic intermediate. For compounds synthesized using this reagent, typical binding assays may be performed. These involve incubating the test compound with purified enzymes (e.g., GABA-T, SSADH) in buffered solutions, with enzyme activity measured spectrophotometrically.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays are not directly performed on 4-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde due to its lack of biological activity. However, drug candidates synthesized from this intermediate may be tested in cellular systems. For GABAergic compounds, neuronal cell lines or primary neurons are cultured and treated with the synthesized compound. GABA levels, neuronal activity, and cell viability are assessed.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies are not conducted with 4-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde itself, as it is a chemical reagent. Drug candidates synthesized from this intermediate may be evaluated in animal models for efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity. For γ-secretase modulators, animal models of Alzheimer's disease or other indications may be used. All procedures follow institutional animal care guidelines.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
4-Bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde is a synthetic chemical intermediate and is not subject to pharmacokinetic evaluation as a drug. Its physicochemical properties include a molecular weight of approximately 197 g/mol and a molecular formula of C7H5BrO2. The compound is stable under normal storage conditions and is available as an off-white crystalline powder.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicological profile of 4-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde has not been extensively characterized. As a brominated aromatic aldehyde, it may cause skin, eye, and respiratory tract irritation. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed, including the use of personal protective equipment (gloves, goggles, lab coat) and adequate ventilation. Ingestion or inhalation should be avoided.
Additional Infomation
4-Bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde is not a drug but a valuable chemical intermediate for pharmaceutical synthesis. It is used in the synthesis of BIIB042, a γ-secretase modulator. Derivatives of this compound inhibit GABA-T and SSADH, suggesting potential applications in epilepsy, anxiety, and sleep disorders. It is also used in the synthesis of azides. It is not approved for clinical use.

  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
