Abstract

The invention relates to a method for inducing pluripotent stem cells, wherein a mammalian cell is contacted with a compound characterized by a general formula 1 wherein R1 is (CH2)mE, with E being CCH or CN and m being 0, 1, or 2, and R2 is selected from F, CI, Br, OR3 and R3, with R3 being selected from H, (CHyF2-y)n CHXF3-X, with n=0 or 1. The invention further relates to stem cells obtained by the method of the invention, and culture media comprising the compound of the invention.
