Từ đồng nghĩa: BAM 15, 2-[(4-Methoxyphenyl)sulfonyl]-N-(4-methylphenyl)acetamide, N-(4-Methylphenyl)-2-[(4-methoxyphenyl)sulfonyl]acetamide, BAM-15, Mitochondrial Uncoupler BAM 15

In the ongoing search for effective mitochondrial uncouplers with drug-like properties, BAM 15 has emerged as a molecule of considerable interest. Unlike classical protonophores such as 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), which carry significant toxicity risks, BAM 15 offers a milder, more controlled approach to modulating cellular energy metabolism. This has positioned it as a popular tool compound in metabolic research, particularly in studies related to obesity, insulin resistance, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Its popularity has grown alongside the broader interest in mitochondrial dysfunction as a therapeutic target, making it a staple in both academic and industrial laboratories.

BAM 15 is a synthetic small molecule that acts as a mitochondrial protonophore. It is chemically distinct from DNP, featuring a sulfonamide-based structure that contributes to its improved safety profile. The compound is typically synthesized through a multi-step organic process, resulting in a high-purity white to off-white crystalline powder. Its mechanism of action involves the transport of protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane, thereby dissipating the proton gradient and uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis. This leads to increased energy expenditure and enhanced substrate oxidation, which are the basis for its metabolic effects.

Product Overview & Composition

BAM 15 (CAS 210302-17-3) is a synthetic organic compound with the molecular formula C19H22N2O2S and a molecular weight of 342.46 g/mol. It is characterized by a 4-methoxyphenylsulfonyl group attached to an acetamide moiety, which is further substituted with a p-tolyl group. This unique structure confers its protonophoric activity and influences its physicochemical properties, such as solubility and membrane permeability.

The compound is lipophilic, with a calculated logP of approximately 3.2, allowing it to readily partition into biological membranes. It is soluble in common organic solvents like DMSO and ethanol but has limited aqueous solubility. This solubility profile is typical for mitochondrial uncouplers and necessitates the use of appropriate vehicles (e.g., DMSO or corn oil) in in vivo studies. BAM 15 is stable under recommended storage conditions and should be protected from light and moisture to maintain its integrity.
