Benzamidine is an organic compound with the semi-structural formula C 6 H 5 C (NH) NH 2 . It is the simplest arylamidine .

properties

The compound is a colorless solid that is only slightly soluble in water. It is often handled as the hydrochloride , a colorless but water-soluble solid.

In terms of its molecular structure , benzamidine has a short C = NH bond (129 pm ) and a longer C-NH 2 bond (135 pm).

application

Benzamidine is a reversible competitive inhibitor of trypsin , trypsin-like enzymes and serine proteases .

It is often called ligand in protein crystallography used proteins against proteases to protect. A partial benzamidine structure can be found in some drugs , including dabigatran .

Derivatized imidazoles are formed by condensation with α-haloketones .
