Zidovudine Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties	Off White Crystalline Powder
Usage	A potent and selective inhibitor of HIV-1 replication
Usage	antibacterial
General Description	Slightly off-white odorless powdery solid.
Air & Water Reactions	Dust may form an explosive mixture in air. Water soluble. Hydrolysis occurs in strongly basic solutions .
Reactivity Profile	Zidovudine is a azido compound. Azo, diazo, azido compounds can detonate. This applies in particular to organic azides that have been sensitized by the addition of metal salts or strong acids. Toxic gases are formed by mixing materials of this class with acids, aldehydes, amides, carbamates, cyanides, inorganic fluorides, halogenated organics, isocyanates, ketones, metals, nitrides, peroxides, phenols, epoxides, acyl halides, and strong oxidizing or reducing agents. Flammable gases are formed by mixing materials in this group with alkali metals. Explosive combination can occur with strong oxidizing agents, metal salts, peroxides, and sulfides.
Fire Hazard	Flash point data for Zidovudine are not available; however, Zidovudine is probably combustible.
