(-)-Epinephrine (+)-bitartrate

Description:
(-)-Epinephrine (+)-bitartrate, also known as adrenaline, is a naturally occurring catecholamine and a vital hormone and neurotransmitter in the body. It plays a crucial role in the "fight or flight" response, increasing heart rate, blood pressure, and energy availability. The substance is a chiral molecule, with the (-)-enantiomer being biologically active, while the (+)-bitartrate salt form enhances its stability and solubility in aqueous solutions. This compound is typically found as a white crystalline powder and is soluble in water, making it suitable for various pharmaceutical applications. Its chemical structure features a catechol group, an amine, and a side chain that contributes to its biological activity. In medicine, (-)-epinephrine is used in emergency situations, such as anaphylaxis and cardiac arrest, due to its vasoconstrictive and bronchodilatory effects. It is also employed in local anesthetics to prolong their action. Safety and dosage considerations are critical, as excessive levels can lead to adverse cardiovascular effects.
