It can be used as shrinkage agent, catalyst and auxiliary agent. In peptide synthesis, the addition of condensation auxiliaries can speed up the reaction speed and reduce racemization, so as to make up for the shortage of condensation reagents. HOPO is a variety of such condensation auxiliaries. 2-hydroxypyridine-n-oxide is an important compound. Recent studies have found that this compound has a special role in preventing wood degradation due to white-rotfungi. At the same time, it is a new and effective subway chelating agent. The complex formed by the compound and vanadium also plays an important role in biochemistry.
