(S)-ropivacaine hydrochloride hydrate

개요(–)-Ropivacaine is a potent and reversible blocker of sodium channels in nerve fibers. In vivo, (–)-ropivacaine induces complete impairment of proprioception, motor function, and nociception in the hindleg of rats when 100 μL of an 8 mM solution is injected percutaneously into the sciatic nerve. (–)-Ropivacaine depresses myocardial contractile force in isolated rat hearts less potently than (±)-ropivacaine, as well as (–)- and (±)-bupivacaine . Formulations containing (–)-ropivacaine have been used as local anesthetics during surgery and childbirth.

용도Ropivacaine hydrochloride monohydrate has been used as an analyte in tandem mass spectrometry and as an amide-based local anaesthetic to test its effect on breast cancer cell methylation.

일반 설명Ropivacaine has lidocaine-related structure with tertiary amine side chains.It is a pure S(-)enantiomer with a propyl group on the piperidine nitrogen atom.
