| | 5-Chlorouracil Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | white to light beige crystalline powder | | Uses | 5-Chlorouracil can be used for the experimental and clinical treatment of neoplastic and viral diseases.
| | Uses | 5-Chlorouracil was used as a control in resazurin-based cytotoxicity assay for screening of cytotoxicity in hepatocytes and liver cell lines. | | Definition | ChEBI: An organochlorine compound consisting of uracil having an chloro substituent at the 5-position. | | General Description | The shape resonance spectra of 5-chlorouracil, obtained from fixed-nuclei elastic scattering calculations by the Schwinger multichannel method with pseudopotentials, was studied. | | Purification Methods | It recrystallises from hot H2O (4g/500mL) using charcoal.
