2-Heptylquinoline-4(1H)-one Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Uses
2-Heptyl-4-quinolone is an intermediate in the synthesis of the Pseudomonas quinolone signal (PQS) that controls swarming by positively regulating phenazine production. 2-Heptyl-4-quinolone induces the production of the phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA)[1].
Definition
ChEBI: A quinolone consisting of quinolin-4(1H)-one carrying a heptyl substituent at position 2.
General Description
HHQ belongs to 2-alkyl-4-quinolone compounds, which are lipophilic and are slightly soluble in water.
Biochem/physiol Actions
HHQ stimulates vesicle formation but not as much as PQS.
