General description

5-Fluoroisatin has been reported as the precursor of the Sunitinib (Sutent) drug. 5-Fluoroisatin has been approved by the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) in 2006 for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).

Application

5-Fluoroisatin may be used:
  • as reaction-based probe for live-cell detection of peroxynitrite by 19F magnetic resonance spectroscopy
  • in non-invasive detection of peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) formation in living lung epithelial cells stimulated with interferon-γ (IFN-γ)
  • in the synthesis of bis-Schiff bases, via condensation with aromatic primary bis-amines in water suspension medium without using any organic solvent or acid catalyst
  • in the synthesis of 3-acetonyl-5-fluoro-3-hydroxyoxindole
Reactant for preparation of:
  • Spiro[indole-thiazolidinones] as biologically relevan synthesis scaffolds
  • Potential antimycobacterial agents
  • Inhibitors of c-Met kinase
  • Inhibitors of TAK1 kinase
  • Herpes simplex virus inhibitors
  • IKKβ inhibitors
  • Inhibitors of vitiligo disease
  • Potential drug candidates with anti-HIV activity and anti-tubercular activity
