Deferoxamine mesylate (Ba 33112); N1-(5-aminopentyl)-N1-hydroxy-N4-(5-(N-hydroxy-4-((5-(N-hydroxyacetamido)pentyl)amino)-4-oxobutanamido)pentyl)succinamide methanesulfonate; CAS No.: 138-14-7; Deferoxamine mesylate (Ba 33112). PROPERTIES: Deferoxamine mesylate, also known as desferrioxamine B mesylate, is a hydroxamic acid derivative appearing as a white or pale yellow lyophilized powder. This Deferoxamine mesylate has a molecular weight of 656.73 g/mol. It is freely soluble in water and slightly soluble in alcohol. The compound is hygroscopic and should be stored under refrigeration at 2-8 C in a tightly sealed, light-resistant container. It is sensitive to heat and light. Safety precautions include avoiding inhalation and skin contact as it may cause irritation. APPLICATIONS: Deferoxamine mesylate is primarily used as an iron chelator in the treatment of iron overload conditions. In research settings, it serves as a tool to study iron metabolism and oxidative stress. It is employed in cell culture to induce hypoxia-like conditions by chelating iron, which is involved in oxygen sensing pathways. In pharmacology, Deferoxamine mesylate is used to investigate the role of iron in various pathological processes. These applications are documented in clinical pharmacology literature and iron metabolism research studies.
