Description

Methylformamide (N-methylformamide, HCONHCH3) is a colorless, hygroscopic liquid that is miscible with water and most organic solvents. It is a versatile chemical used in various applications, including as a solvent, a reagent in organic synthesis, and a component in formulations for textiles, plastics, and pharmaceuticals. Methylformamide can be synthesized through the reaction of formamide with methanol in the presence of a catalyst. It has been shown to exhibit various biological effects, including cytotoxicity and genotoxicity. Its importance lies in its role as a versatile solvent and reagent, particularly in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and other fine chemicals. Research into methylformamide is ongoing due to its potential applications in diverse fields, including materials science, nanotechnology, and green chemistry. Studies focus on its synthesis, properties, reactivity, and biological effects, aiming to optimize its use and explore its potential for new applications.'

Research Excerpts

Overview

N-Methylformamide (NMF) is an antitumour drug with hepatotoxic properties. It is a polar solvent with maturational activity, i.e., it induces malignant cells to form more differentiated phenotypes.

Effects

N-Methylformamide (NMF) has been an agent of considerable interest to oncologists because of its broad spectrum of preclinical antitumor activity, tumor-differentiating abilities, and radiosensitizing and chemosensitizer properties. Dimethylformamide has been used as a model inducer in carcinoma and fibroblastic models.
