CAS 6119-70-6: Quinine sulfate dihydrate
Description:Quinine sulfate dihydrate is a chemical compound derived from the bark of the cinchona tree, primarily known for its use as an antimalarial agent. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and has a bitter taste, which is characteristic of quinine compounds. The dihydrate form indicates that it contains two molecules of water for every molecule of quinine sulfate, affecting its stability and solubility. Quinine sulfate dihydrate has a molecular formula that reflects its composition of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur. In addition to its antimalarial properties, it is also used in treating nocturnal leg cramps and as a flavoring agent in tonic water. The compound exhibits a range of pharmacological effects, including analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. However, it can also cause side effects such as cinchonism, which includes symptoms like tinnitus and nausea. Due to its potential toxicity at high doses, its use is carefully regulated in medical applications.
