General description
Cuprizone (Bis(cyclohexanone)oxaldihydrazone) is a physically unstable compound and is a well-known neurotoxic agent.
Application
Cuprizone (Bis(cyclohexanone)oxaldihydrazone) was used for toxic demyelination in the central nervous system in order to investigate the pathobiology of remyelination in the corpus callosum, so as to study the human demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis. It was also used a model to study components of neuroinflammation.
Other Notes
For the spectrophotometric determination of Cu(II)
In the presence of a copper salt, this ligand catalyzes Ullmann-type C-N bond forming reactions under mild, aqueous conditions.
