General description

2,2,3,3-Tetramethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid is an inactive cyclopropyl analog of valproic acid (major antiepileptic drug). Inhibition of histone deacetylases and tumor cells cytotoxicities of 2,2,3,3-tetramethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid was studied.

Application

2,2,3,3-Tetramethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid was used as a starting material for the synthesis of central nervous system-active compounds.

The tumor cells toxicity of the antiepileptic drug valproic acid (VPA) has been associated with the inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACs). We have assessed, in comparison to VPA, the HDACs inhibition and tumor cells cytotoxicities of CNS-active VPA's constitutional isomers
