N6-Ethyl-2’-beta-C-ethynyl adenosine

N6-Ethyl-2’-beta-C-ethynyl adenosine is a purine nucleoside analog. Purine nucleoside analogs have broad antitumor activity targeting indolent lymphoid malignancies. Anticancer mechanisms in this process rely on inhibition of DNA synthesis, induction of apoptosis, etc[1]. N6-Ethyl-2’-beta-C-ethynyl adenosine is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.
