Properties: Plates from amyl acetate or water or 30% methanol, mp 119.5-121 (Whiffen, 1951); also reported as mp 115-116 (Johnson, 1966). [a]D29 -3.38 (c = 9.47 in methanol); [a]D25 +6.8 (c = 2 in H2O). Soly at 2: water 2.1 g/100 ml, amyl acetate 7 g/100 ml. Also sol in chloroform, ether, acetone, methanol, ethanol, other common organic solvents except satd hydrocarbons. Relatively heat-stable, acid-stable, destroyed by boiling in aq soln at pH 7 for 1 hr, but shows no loss of activity after 15 min boiling. At pH 2 it is not destroyed by boiling for 1 hr. Rapidly inactivated at room temp by dil alkali with the formation of a volatile, fragrant ketone, 2,4-dimethylcyclohexanone. Extremely repellent to rats. LD50 i.v. in mice: 150 mg/kg (Leach).

Usage And Synthesis:

Chemical Properties: Off-white to light tan powder General DescriptionColorless crystals. Used as a fungicide and as a anticancer drug. Air & Water ReactionsWater soluble. Reactivity ProfileActidione is an imide. Actidione is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents, acid chlorides and acid anhydrides. Actidione decomposes rapidly in alkali at room temperature. Health HazardActidione is extremely toxic; the probable oral lethal dose in humans is 5-50 mg/kg, or 7 drops to 1 teaspoonful for a 150-lb. person. Fire HazardWhen exposed to heat, Actidione emits toxic fumes, including nitrogen oxides. Biological ActivitySelective inhibitor of eukaryotic (over prokaryotic) protein synthesis, blocking tRNA binding and release from ribosomes. Induces apoptosis in a variety of transformed and normal cell lines, including T-cells. Competitively inhibits the PPIase hFKBP12 (K i = 3.4 u M). Antifungal antibiotic. Actidione
