Methylazoxymethanol acetate( CAS No.592-62-1) is also called (methyl-onn-azoxy)-methanoacetate(ester); (methyl-onn-azoxy)methanol,acetate(ester); (methyl-onn-azoxy)methanol,acetateester;aceticacid,(methyl-onn-azoxy)methylester; cycasinacetate; mamac; mamacetate; methylazoxymethanolacetate. Methylazoxymethanol acetate, MAM, is a neurotoxin and carcinogen which reduces DNA synthesis used in making animal models of neurological diseases including schizophrenia and epilepsy. Methylazoxymethyl acetate is used as a potent alkylating agent. It is an azo compound. Azo, compounds can detonate. This applies in particular to organic azides that have been sensitized by the addition of metal salts or strong acids.
