Description
Hydroxyzine dihydrochloride is an antihistaminic drug belonging to the diphenylmethane family. It is a white solid that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. It is also known by the brand names Amplimexon and Amplimed. Hydroxyzine dihydrochloride is used in pharmaceutical secondary standards for quality control in pharmaceutical laboratories and manufacturing, offering a convenient and cost-effective alternative to in-house working standards.
Uses
1. Used in Pharmaceutical Industry:
Hydroxyzine dihydrochloride is used as an H1 receptor antagonist for treating allergic symptoms and as an anxiolytic to alleviate anxiety.
2. Used in Medical Applications:
Hydroxyzine dihydrochloride is used as an antihistaminic and H1 antagonist for managing allergic reactions and symptoms.
3. Used in Research and Development:
Hydroxyzine dihydrochloride has been utilized in the study of comparative anxiolytic activity of various drugs in experimental models of rats, contributing to the development of new treatments for anxiety disorders.
Originator
Atarax,UCB,France,1956
Manufacturing Process
A mixture of 0.1 mol of N-mono-1-p-chlorobenzohydrylpiperazine and 0.1 mol
of 1-chloro-2-(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)-ethane is heated for 3 hours to 150°C. The
mass is then taken up in 100 ml of benzene and 100 ml of a 10% aqueous
solution of NaOH; decanting takes place, and the benzene solution is washed
with water and the solvent is evaporated. Vacuum distilling of the residue
yields 1-p-chlorobenzohydryl-4-[2-(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)-ethyl]-piperazine, BP
220°C/0.5 mm Hg.The corresponding dihydrochloride is prepared by dissolving this base in about
twice its weight of alcohol, by treating it with excess of gaseous HCl and by
precipitating it with ether. The solvent is decanted and the residue, dissolved
in a minimum of alcohol, crystallizes on the addition of ether, MP 193°C.
Therapeutic Function
Tranquilizer
Biochem/physiol Actions
Hydroxyzine dihydrochloride (HDH) is used to regulate anxiety. It is also used to treat bronchial asthma and to relax patients before surgery.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 2192-20-3 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 2,1,9 and 2 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2192-20:
(6*2)+(5*1)+(4*9)+(3*2)+(2*2)+(1*0)=63
63 % 10 = 3
So 2192-20-3 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

NOVEL WATER BASED PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF SUBSTITUTED DIPHENYLMETHYL PIPERAZINES
-
Page/Page column 8, (2011/08/03)
The present invention relates to a novel water based process for the preparation of substituted diphenylmethyl piperazines of Formula I and pharmaceutically acceptable salts wherein X1 and X2 represent independently a hydrogen, a halogen, a straight or branched chain lower alkyl, alkoxy or a hydroxyl radical and R is selected from groups such as acyl, alkyl, alkenyl, aralalkyl, aralalkenyl aralkyl, and aralalkenyl or aralkenyl hydroxyalkyl, aryloxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, aminoalkyl or its derivative comprising, reacting a compound of Formula II, with a compound of formula R—X where R is as defined above and X is suitable leaving group which includes halides, but not limiting use of other leaving groups such as tosylate, mesylate and activated acid groups such as acyl halide, anhydrides, mixed anhydrides etc. using water as a solvent, in presence of a catalyst and a base, at 25-100° C.;
