5-Deazaflavin is a synthetic flavin analog where the nitrogen atom at position 5 of the isoalloxazine ring system is replaced by a carbon atom. This seemingly small structural modification significantly alters the redox properties of the molecule, making it a valuable tool for studying flavin-dependent enzymes and electron transfer mechanisms.
Structural relationship to natural flavins:
| Compound | Structure | Key Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) | C₁₇H₂₀N₄O₆ | Natural flavin, N at position 5 |
| Flavin Mononucleotide (FMN) | C₁₇H₂₁N₄O₉P | Phosphorylated riboflavin |
| Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD) | C₂₇H₃₃N₉O₁₅P₂ | Adenine-containing flavin |
| 5-Deazaflavin | C₁₂H₁₀N₄O | Synthetic analog, C at position 5 (no N5) |
