Application

Omadine, an off-white powder, serves as a precursor to O-acyl thiohydroxamates and forms biologically active complexes by binding with metals. Derived from pyrithione, it functions as a Zn(2+) ionophore, making it effective in facilitating zinc transport. This characteristic allows the zinc salt of pyrithione to be used as both an antifungal and antibacterial agent. Through its unique chemical structure, Omadine plays a significant role as a ligand in metal complex formation, providing its effectiveness in various biological and chemical applications.
