7-Methoxy-4,5-dihydro-1H-benzo[b]azepin-2(3H)-one(CAT: L030678) is a heterocyclic compound featuring a benzoazepinone core with a methoxy group at the 7-position. This structure is commonly used in pharmaceutical chemistry as a scaffold for developing bioactive molecules, particularly due to the azepine ring’s potential to interact with biological receptors. The methoxy group can improve the compound’s lipophilicity, aiding in its bioavailability, while the lactam (azepinone) functionality enhances stability and provides a reactive site for further derivatization. This compound has applications in the synthesis of central nervous system (CNS) agents, enzyme inhibitors, and receptor modulators, where its ring structure can improve binding affinity and selectivity in drug development.
