Neticonazole

Neticonazole is an enamine that is ethene which is substituted at positions 1, 1, and 2 by o-pentoxyphenyl, 1H-imidazol-1-yl, and methylthio groups, respectively (the E isomer). An inhibitor of P450-dependent C-14alpha-demethylation of lanosterol (preventing conversion to ergosterol and inhibiting cell wall synthesis in fungi), it is used in Japan (generally as the corresponding hydrochloride salt) as an antifungal drug for the treatment of superficial skin infections. It has a role as an EC 1.14.13.70 (sterol 14alpha-demethylase) inhibitor and an antifungal drug. It is a member of benzenes, a member of imidazoles, an aromatic ether, an enamine, a methyl sulfide, an imidazole antifungal drug and a conazole antifungal drug. It is a conjugate base of a neticonazole(1+).
