METHYLSULFONYLPIPERIDINYLAMINO DIOXOTHIOMORPHOLINOMETHYL PHENYLINDOLE

Substance information

The methyl group is one of the simplest arrangements of atoms in organic chemistry which can be found as a moiety of numerous organic molecules. The name „methyl“ is derived from methane, the member of the alkane hydrocarbon group with the lowest molecular weight. The methane molecule contains four hydrogen atoms each one bound to a central carbon atom. The methyl group is not an independent chemical entity and contains only three hydrogen atoms, the fourth binding site is generally used for binding to a larger, mainly organic molecule. Like all alkanes, methyl groups exhibit a particularly low chemical reactivity. This ingredient contains piperidine (hexhaydropyridine, azacyclohexane) as amine component. "Amino" mostly refers to an nitrogen hydrogen grouping (NH2-). "Oxo" indicates a double-bonded oxygen atom in the molecule. The syllable "thio" indicates sulphur as a component of the molecule (mostly in exchange for oxygen). Ingredient on the basis of morpholine (diethylene oximide, tetrahydro-1,4-oxazine). "Phenyl" mostly refers to phenol as alcoholic component or generally the phenyl group as aromatic hydrocarbon residue. This ingredient contains indole (1H-indole; 2,3-benzopyrrole) as amine component.
