| 2,3-Dimercapto-1-propanol Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Dimercaprol (INN) or British anti - Lewisite (abbreviated BAL), is a compound developed by British biochemists at Oxford University during World War II . It was developed secretly as an antidote for lewisite, the now - obsolete arsenic - based chemical warfare agent . Today, it is used medically in treatment of arsenic, mercury , gold, lead, antimony, and other toxic metal poisoning . In addition , it has in the past been used for the treatment of Wilson's disease, a genetic disorder in which the body tends to retain copper. |
| Chemical Properties | colourless oily liquid with a typically offensive mercaptan smell |
| Originator | Bal,Hynson/Westcott,US,1944 |
| Uses | chelating agent (As, Au, Hg antidote) |
| Uses | BAL is a chelating agent used as an antidote for the treatment of metal poisoning, especially arsenic (organic and inorganic), gold salts, and inorganic mercury. BAL is more effective when given soon after toxic exposure because it is more effective in preventing inhibition of sulfhydryl enzymes than in reactivating them. BAL is also used in the treatment of Wilson’s disease. The drug cannot be used in poisonings due to iron, cadmium, tellurium, selenium, vanadium, and uranium. It is contraindicated in poisonings due to elemental mercury vapor, because it can further increase the metal in the brain. |
| Uses | British Anti-Lewisite. A chelator that inhibits sugar nucleotide degradation.2,3-Dimercaptopropanol is used as a chelating agent involved in the treatment of arsenic, antimony, lead, gold and mercury poisoning. It is also used as an antidote to the warfare agent Lewisite. Further, it is used for the treatment of Wilson's disease. In addition to this, it is used as an adjunct in the treatment of the acute encephalopathy of lead toxicity. |
| Uses | 2,3-Dimercapto-1-propanol has been used in synthesizing novel (2-substituted phenyl-1,3-dithiolan-4-yl) methanol (PDTM) derivatives, which are potent tyrosinase inhibitors. It can also be considered for developing new drugs against AIDS due to its ability to inhibit HIV-1 tat activity. |
