Usage And Synthesis:
Chemical Properties: Yellow Solid UsageAn antimitotic agent that disrupts microtubles by binding to tubulin and preventing its polymerization. Stimulates the intrinsic GTPase activity of tubulin. Induces apoptosis in several normal and tumor cell lines and activates the JNK/SAPK signal General DescriptionOdorless or nearly odorless pale yellow needles or powder that darkens on exposure to light. Used to treat gouty arthritis, pseudogout, sarcoidal arthritis and calcific tendinitis. Air & Water ReactionsSlowly hydrolyzed in acidic solution, but unbuffered solutions are stable at 68F for at least six months. Isomerizes on exposure to ultraviolet radiation. Reactivity ProfileColchicine darkens on exposure to light. Incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. Also incompatible with mineral acids . Health HazardColchicine is classified as super toxic. Probable oral lethal dose in humans is less than 5 mg/kg, i.e. less than 7 drops for a 70 kg (150 lb.) person. Death results from respiratory arrest. The fatal dose varies considerably; as little as 7 mg of Colchicine has proved fatal. Fire HazardStable. Biological ActivityPlant-derived alkaloid that binds to tubulin and depolymerizes microtubules. Colchicine
