Chemical Information

Nimustine

Nimustine is an organochlorine compound that is urea in which the two hydrogens on one of the amino groups are replaced by nitroso and 2-chloroethyl groups and one hydrogen from the other amino group is replaced by a 4-amino-2-methylpyrimidin-5-ylmethyl] group. An antineoplastic agent especially effective against malignant brain tumors. It has a role as an alkylating agent and an antineoplastic agent. It is an organochlorine compound, an aminopyrimidine and a member of N-nitrosoureas. It is a conjugate base of a nimustine(1+).
