5'-O-(4-Cyanobenzyl)-2',3'-O-isopropylidene adenosine

Uses

5′-O-[(4-Cyanophenyl)methyl]-2′,3′-O-(1-methylethylidene)adenosine is an adenosine analog. Adenosine analogs mostly act as smooth muscle vasodilators and have also been shown to inhibit cancer progression. Its popular products are adenosine phosphate, Acadesine (HY-13417), Clofarabine (HY-A0005), Fludarabine phosphate (HY-B0028) and Vidarabine (HY-B0277)[1].
