Temozolomide is characterized by easily penetration through the blood-brain barrier, good tolerance and being not superimposed with other drugs toxicity.
Methyl 4-aminobenzoate is also used in organic synthesis and acts as a dye intermediate. Further, it is used to prepare 4-(2-methyl-4-oxo-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-benzoic acid methyl ester by reacting with 2-acetylamino-benzoic acid.
5-Amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide may be used in the synthesis of 4-(N′-benzoylcarbamoyl)amino-5-imidazolecarboxamide and 5-amino-1-β-D-ribosyl-4-imidazolecarboxamide-5′-phosphate (AICAR)
