2,6-Dimercaptopurine(Cat No.:R070006)is a sulfur-containing purine derivative featuring thiol (-SH) groups at the 2 and 6 positions of the purine ring. This compound is of interest in medicinal and biochemical research due to its nucleobase-like structure and potential interactions with nucleic acid metabolism. It exhibits metal-chelating properties, making it useful in studies involving coordination chemistry or heavy metal detoxification. Additionally, its structural similarity to biologically active purines suggests potential as a modulator of enzymatic processes or as a scaffold in drug development targeting purine-related metabolic or signaling pathways.
