Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) are a family of closely related drugs used for a metal chelation, induction of G1 phase cell cycle arrest,[1] and preventing induction of nitric oxide synthase.[2]

Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate binds zinc such that the resulting complex can enter the cell and inhibit viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase.[3]

Reactions

[edit]

Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate, like other dithiocarbamates, forms coordination complexes with a variety of transition metals. One example is Fe(S2CNC4H8)3.[4]
