4-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)-3H-diazirin-3-yl]benzoic acid CAS:85559-46-2 is a chemical compound that is commonly used in biochemical and pharmacological research. It is a photoreactive probe that can be used to covalently label and crosslink proteins and other biomolecules in complex biological systems. The trifluoromethyl-diazirinyl group in the compound is a highly reactive and short-lived carbene species that can react with nearby biomolecules upon irradiation with ultraviolet (UV) light. This reaction can be used to identify binding partners of proteins or to map protein-protein interactions in situ. The benzoic acid moiety in the compound provides additional chemical functionality for further modification of the probe, making it a valuable tool in the development of new research tools and therapeutics.
