Doxepin History

 Doxepin was synthesized by Stach and Spingler from the German drug manufacturer C. F. Boehringer & Söhne GmbH in Mannheim. It was tested from 1963 to 1968 in different German and Swiss psychiatric institutions and was approved in Germany and elsewhere thereafter. The antidepressive effects were found to be excellent. Strong anxiolytic and sedative properties were also demonstrated. Doxepin has been in clinical use for several decades. The drug plays an important role in many indications today, not only in psychiatry/neurology.

Doxepin Uses

  Doxepin (CAS NO.1668-19-5) is antidepressant used clinically to treat anxiety and depression.As doxepin hydrochloride, it is the active ingredient in cream-based preparations (Zonalon and Xepin) for the treatment of dermatological itch. Doxepin is currently investigated for the treatment of insomnia.

Doxepin Production

 Triphenyl phosphine and 1,3-dibromo-propane generated 3-bromo-propyl bromide, triphenyl phosphine.To continue with the reaction of anhydrous dimethylamine obtained 3-dimethylamino-propyl bromide, benzene, hydrogen-3 phosphonium salt , and then with the 6,11 - dihydro-dibenzo [b, e] evil G -11 - ketones obtained doxepin. Intermediate 6,11 - dihydro-dibenzo [b, e] evil G -11 - one of the synthetic method can be found in Belg.pat, 641498.
