9-Chloroacridine is a derivative of acridine, which contains a chlorine atom at position 9 of the acridine nucleus. It is a chlorinated acridine compound used in spectrophotometric analyses and as a reagent for the synthesis of chalcones, acridine derivatives, and quinoline derivatives. It was shown to have significant cytotoxicity in cell culture and to react with hydrochloric acid to form two chemical species: amines and protonated molecules. Molecular docking analysis has been used to show that 9-chloroacridine interacts with the enzyme dihydropteridine reductase, which is involved in pteridine synthesis.
