2-[2-[(4-Iodophenyl)amino]-2-oxoethoxy]-N-[2-(methylphenylamino)-2-oxoethyl]-benzamide is derived from 4-Iodoaniline (I686800), which is a iodine substituted aniline that is widely used as chemical intermediates in the manufacturing of pesticides, dyes and drugs. 4-Iodoaniline was shown to be a more potent nephrotoxicant in vitro than other anilines.
