Yohimbine Usage And Synthesis |
Overview Information |
Yohimbe is the name of an evergreen tree found in parts of central and western Africa. The bark of yohimbe contains a chemical called yohimbine, which is used to make medicine. Yohimbine hydrochloride (Aphrodyne, Yocon) is a form of yohimbine that is a prescription drug in the US.

Effectiveness |
Anxiety. There is mixed evidence about the effectiveness of yohimbine, the active ingredient in yohimbe, for treating anxiety related to phobias. Some research suggests that it does not improve anxiety when combined with therapy. However, other research suggests that it reduces fear related to certain phobias. |
Side Effects |
Yohimbe, taken by mouth, is POSSIBLY UNSAFE. Yohimbe has been linked to reports of severe side effects including irregular or rapid heart beat, kidney failure, seizure, heart attack, and others. |
Description | Yohimbine is a natural alkaloid. It was first extracted from the barks of Corynanthe yohimbe, a species of Rubiaceae trees in West Africa. It was reported that, in the dried bark of Pausinystalia johimbe, the content of mixed alkaloids is higher than 6.1%, in which the main component is yohimbine, indicating a great prospect for development . Yohimbe bark has been used as an aphrodisiac in Africa since ancient times. In 1900, it was applied by Kowit and Muller to patients with impotence and paralytic insensitivity caused by neurasthenia and obtained curative effect. From then on, clinical application of yohimbine began. Currently, yohimbine is a pure plant preparation in the treatment of erectile dysfunction with more affirmation and more applications. |
Chemical Properties | Glistening, needle-like alkaloid, soluble in alcohol and ether, very slightly soluble in water. |
Physical properties | Appearance: white powder. Solubility: soluble in ethanol, chloroform, and hot benzene; slightly soluble in water and ether, usually salified by hydrochloric acid to increase its solubility in water. Specific rotatory power (°): D22 +105° (in water). Melting point: 241–246 °C. |
History | Yohimbine has been used as an aphrodisiac for many years. At first, pharmacologists attributed its aphrodisiac effects to psychological effects similar to placebo or increasement of peripheral vascular congestion, rather than real sexual stimulation. Physiologists at the Stanford University first conducted a study on the pharmacological effects of yohimbine and found that yohimbine could increase the mating ability of rats , which was then published on Science in 1984 . In addition, researchers in the Queensland University in Canada conducted experiments on 23 patients with sexual dysfunction. Six of them recovered after taking the drug for 10 weeks. In 1987, Canadian scientists confirmed that yohimbine treatment in psychogenic impotence was safe and effective and this drug could restore the patient’ssexual ability . Besides, they proved that this medicine showed good curative effects on organic impotence. |
Uses | Yohimbine occurs in Corinanthe johimbeK. and Rubiaceae trees. It is also foundin the roots of Rauwolfia serpentina L.and Apocyanaceae. Its derivatives areused therapeutically as adrenergic blockingagents. |
Uses | sexual dysfunction |
Uses | Obtained from leaves and bark of Corynanthe johimbe. Formerly used as an aphrodisiac in veterinary medicine, yohimbine works primarily by acting as an antagonist at α2-adrenergic receptors. |
Definition | ChEBI: An indole alkaloid with alpha2-adrenoceptor antagonist activity. It is produced by Corynanthe johimbe and Rauwolfia serpentina. |
Indications | This product is listed in the 2017 edition of the British Pharmacopoeia, 40 editions of the American Pharmacopoeia, and 9.0 edition of the European Pharmacopoeia. The main clinical application of yohimbine includes tablets and injections. It is mainly used to treat various types of impotence and sexual dysfunction in men. |
General Description | Yohimbine (Yocon)is a competitive and selective 2-blocker. The compound isan indolealkylamine alkaloid and is found in the bark of thetree Pausinystalia yohimbe and in Rauwolfia root. |
Health Hazard | Pharmacologically, yohimbine is an adrenergic blocking agent. It exhibits hypotensive and cardiostimulant activities. Poisoningfrom excessive doses may become severe,causing convulsions and respiratory failure LD50 value, intraperitoneal (mice): 16 mg/kg LD50 value, oral (mice): 37 mg/kg. |
Biological Activity | α 2 -adrenoceptor antagonist (pK i values are 8.52, 8.00 and 9.17 for human a 2A , a 2B and a 2C receptors respectively). |
Pharmacology | Studies have shown that yohimbine has extensive pharmacological effects and has been developed for the clinical treatment of arteriosclerosis, rheumatism, and other diseases. The most obvious pharmacological action is in the treatment of male sexual dysfunction. Yohimbine tablets have been approved by the FDA and circulate in international markets. Yohimbine can selectively block the presynaptic alpha 2 receptors and promote the release of norepinephrine . It stimulates more norepinephrine released by cavernous nerve endings and reduces reflux of phallic vein, which is conducive to congestive erection. A small amount of application can make the perineum swell and stimulate the erection center at the spinal cord, leading to sexual hyperfunction . Yohimbine hydrochloride also has a psychological stimulant effect and increases libido. Like other types of adrenergic blocking drugs, yohimbine’s resistance to adrenergic mediator in blood circulation is much stronger than to sympathetic nerve impulse. Again, like tolazoline, yohimbine shows slight effect in resisting adrenergic response in ocular smooth muscle. This drug does not block the frequency and inotropic effects of epinephrine on mammalian hearts. Yohimbine has minor direct effects on smooth muscle, and its effect on the central nervous system is far less than that of ergot alkaloids, because yohimbine performs an excited-to-paralyzed action. This drug produces diuretic effect, probably due to the stimulation of the hypothalamus, resulting in release of posterior pituitary hormone. In addition, yohimbine has a significant local anesthetic effect . |
Clinical Use | Yohimbine increases heart rate and blood pressure as aresult of its blockade of 2-receptors in the CNS. It has beenused experimentally to treat male erectile impotence. |
Purification Methods | Crystallise the alkaloid from EtOH, and dry it in a vacuum to remove EtOH of crystallisation. [Van Tamelen et al. J Am Chem Soc 91 7315 1969, Stork |
