Synonyms: 5-Deazaflavin, 5-Deazariboflavin, 7,8-Dimethyl-10-ribityl-5-deazaisoalloxazine, 5-Deazaflavin (2nd Generation), DAF, 5-Deaza-7,8-dimethyl-10-ribitylisoalloxazine

5-Deazaflavin (2nd Generation) is a synthetic analog of flavin coenzymes, featuring a carbon atom in place of nitrogen at the 5-position of the isoalloxazine ring. This modification imparts unique redox properties, making it a valuable tool in mechanistic studies of flavoenzymes and as a precursor for cofactor analogs. The “2nd Generation” designation refers to an optimized synthesis route that yields higher purity and improved batch-to-batch consistency, addressing the limitations of earlier preparations.

Our 5-Deazaflavin is produced under strict quality control, with each batch tested for identity, purity, and residual solvents. It is supplied as a fine crystalline powder, typically ≥98% pure by HPLC, and is available in gram to kilogram quantities to support both research and scale-up needs. The compound is widely used in academic and industrial R&D, particularly in enzymology, biophysical chemistry, and drug discovery where flavin mimics are required.
