In 1977,European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry included an article by Fatome, Marc; Andrieu, Louis; Laval, Jean Denis; Clavel, Jean Marc; Blanco, Luis; Guillaumel, Jean; Rene, Loic; Royer, Rene. Safety of 6-Methoxybenzofuran-2-carbaldehyde. The article was titled 《Comparison of radioprotective activities of similar substituted derivatives of benzofurane and 2H-chromene》. The information in the text is summarized as follows:
The radioprotective activities of I(R1, R2, R3, R4 = H, OMe; Z = MeCO, CHO, CN, CO2Et) were less than those of II (same substituents as I). In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 6-Methoxybenzofuran-2-carbaldehyde(cas: 53860-74-5Safety of 6-Methoxybenzofuran-2-carbaldehyde)
6-Methoxybenzofuran-2-carbaldehyde(cas: 53860-74-5) belongs to benzofurans.Safety of 6-Methoxybenzofuran-2-carbaldehydeBenzofurans containing one furan ring that have been implicated as psychoactive recreational drugs include 6-(2-aminopropyl)benzofuran (6-APB), 5-(2-aminopropyl)benzofuran (5-APB), 5-(2-ethylaminopropyl)benzofuran (5-EAPB), and 5-methylaminopropylbenzofuran (5-MAPB).
