Description

3,4,5-Trimethoxybenzaldehyde is a key intermediate in the synthesis of trimethoprim[2,4-diamino-5-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyl)pyrimidine], which, in addition to its antibacterial activity, possesses the property of significantly strengthening the bactericidal activity of sulfanilamide preparations. Also, 3,4,5-Trimethoxybenzaldehyde id used for the synthesis of Isoamoenylin, which showed moderate antioxidative and weak antibacterial activities. An A-ring analogue of colchicine, 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde, can stop the antimitotic drug IKP104-induced unfolding of tubulin significantly. 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde stimulated tubulin-dependent GTP hydrolysis.
