306-67-2 Usage
Chemical Properties
White to off-white powder
Uses
Different sources of media describe the Uses of 306-67-2 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Spermine Tetrahydrochloride is an inhibitor of NOS1, NMDA, GluR, and PLCα. A useful reactant for Surface-?enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) characterization of abasic sites in DNA duplexes.
2. Spermine tetrahydrochloride was used to precipitate DNA for flow cytometric analysis from fresh frozen breast cancer tissue, archival tissue of salivary gland, renal and thyroid tumors and red blood cells of chicken.
3. Used to precipitate DNA from low salt aqueous buffers.
Biological Activity
Polyamine which produces a variety of modulatory effects on the NMDA receptor channel, acting through a specific site on the complex which can cause both agonist and antagonist effects.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Mixed NMDA agonist/antagonist at the polyamine site. Neuroprotective effects have been observed at high concentrations (1 mM), while neurotoxicity is observed at lower concentrations. It enhances agonist effectiveness at the strychnine-insensitive glycine site. Plays a role in cellular proliferation and differentiation; inhibits neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS).
Purification Methods
Its pK values are similar to those of spermidine above. Purify it as for spermidine trihydrochloride above. [Beilstein 4 IV 1301.]
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 306-67-2 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 3,0 and 6 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 6 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 306-67:
(5*3)+(4*0)+(3*6)+(2*6)+(1*7)=52
52 % 10 = 2
So 306-67-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Syntheses of different open chain polyamines starting from enzymatically prepared bis(amidoesters) are described. Some of these polyamines are also used as precursors in the syntheses of tetraazamacrocycles. This methodology can also be applied to the synthesis of chiral compounds.
