Tranquilizer
Biochem/physiol Actions
Trifluoperazine dihydrochloride is useful in treating schizophrenia, disturbed behavior, severe anxiety, nausea and vomiting.
Safety Profile
Poison by intravenous
and intraperitoneal routes. Moderately toxic
by ingestion. Experimental reproductive
effects. Human mutation data reported.
When heated to decomposition it emits very
toxic fumes of F-, NOx, SOx, and HCl. See
also FLUORIDES.
Purification Methods
Recrystallise the salt from absolute EtOH, filter the crystals, dry them in vacuo and store them in tightly stoppered bottles because it is hygroscopic. It is soluble in H2O but insoluble in *C6H6, Et2O and alkaline aqueous solution. It has UV at 258 and 307.5nm (log 4.50 and 3.50) in EtOH (neutral species). [Craig max et al. J Org Chem 22 709 1957.] It is a calmodulin inhibitor [Levene & Weiss J Parmacol Exptl Ther 208 454 1978] and is a psychotropic agent [Fowler Arzneim.-Forsch 27 866 1977]. [Beilstein 27 III/IV 1353.]
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 440-17-5 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 4,4 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 440-17:
(5*4)+(4*4)+(3*0)+(2*1)+(1*7)=45
45 % 10 = 5
So 440-17-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
