72432-10-1 Usage
Description
Aniracetam, also known as N-anisoyl-2-pyrrolidinone, is a member of the same class of piracetam metabolized drugs of brain cells, along with piracetam and nefiracetam. It is a non-NMDA receptor agent that is beneficial for the treatment of cognitive impairment. Aniracetam can enhance the activity of synaptic neurons phospholipase, increase ATP formation and transport in the brain, boost protein synthesis and RNA, promote the usage of brain on amino acids, phospholipids, glucose, and oxygen, and improve the patient's response, excitability, and memory. With a higher effect than piracetam and relatively minor side effects, Aniracetam is well-tolerated and efficacious in improving velocity and accuracy of saccades, complex reaction time, and other aspects of performance.
Uses
Used in Pharmaceutical Industry:
Aniracetam is used as a nootropic drug for the amelioration of memory and attention disturbances that accompany cerebrovascular diseases and degenerative brain disorders. It possesses anti-depressive properties and serves as a mental performance enhancer, slowing the rate of ion-channel closing.
Used as a Cognition Enhancer:
Aniracetam is used as an AMPA receptor potentiator and cognition enhancer related to Piracetam, promoting improved cognitive function and brain health.
Originator
Roche (Switzerland)
Preparation
Aniracetam is prepared by condensing 2-pyrrolidone with 4-methoxybenzoyl chloride. The drug was first made in the 1970s by Hoffmann-La Roche. This piracetam-related cognition enhancer reduces glutamate receptor desensitization.
Manufacturing Process
40.0 g of p-methoxybenzoyl chloride, 25.0 g of 2-pyrrolidinone and 110 ml
of absolute diethyl ether are treated at between 0°C and 10°C while stirring
with 52.5 ml of triethylamine. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for
a further 30 minutes and at reflux for 3 hours, then cooled down and treated
at 2°C with cold water. The insoluble constituents are filtered off under suction
and washed with water and diethyl ether. The thus obtained solid substance is
recrystallized from alcohol after drying over phosphorus pentoxide. There is
obtained 1-(p-methoxybenzoyl)-2-pyrrolidinone which melts at 121°-122°C.
Therapeutic Function
Nootropic
benefits
Aniracetam is in the racetam-family of nootropic compounds. It is a fat-soluble ampakine nootropic. Aniracetam primarily acts as both a stimulant and a mental enhancer. It’s said to help make you more awake and alert. This is similar to caffeine. It may also help improve your memory and concentration.Aniracetam modulates AMPA receptors which are involved in how glutamate is used in your brain. More of the neurotransmitter glutamate is available. Which means better neural signaling across synapses. Your brain is working optimally despite stress, fatigue and anxiety.
Biological Activity
Nootropic, with modulatory actions through allosteric potentiation of AMPA specific receptors, reduction of glutamate receptor desensitization and potentiation of metabotropic glutamate receptor activity. Anxiolytic following systemic administration.
Pharmacology
Aniracetam, a cyclized derivative of γ-aminobutyric acid, can improve the brain function. It can selectively exert effect on central nervous system through penetration into blood-brain barrier. It can activate the metabolism activity of brain cell and protect the nerve cells. This product can also promote the intelligence by affecting the glutamate receptor system. Moreover, it improves skin’s resistance to hypoxia, preventing the occurrence of malfunction of learning and memory caused by a variety of chemical substances, hypercapnia, scopolamine and electrical shock. This product has no sedative or excitation effect. Animal experiments show that this product promotes the memory recovery in normal rats' learning process. It can fight against hypoxia-induced memory recession and relieve the memory malfunction caused by certain reasons. The above information is edited by the lookchem of Dai Xiongfeng.
Purification Methods
Purify aniracetam by recrystallisation from EtOH. It is a nootropic (Alzheimer) drug. [Gouliaev & Senning Brain Research Rev 19 180 1994.]

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 72432-10-1 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 7,2,4,3 and 2 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 72432-10:
(7*7)+(6*2)+(5*4)+(4*3)+(3*2)+(2*1)+(1*0)=101
101 % 10 = 1
So 72432-10-1 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
