CAS 72-44-6

(±)-Methaqualone

Description:

(±)-Methaqualone, with the CAS number 72-44-6, is a synthetic compound that belongs to the class of drugs known as sedative-hypnotics. It is characterized by its ability to induce relaxation and sleep, making it historically used for the treatment of insomnia and anxiety disorders. The compound has a molecular formula that includes carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen, contributing to its pharmacological properties. Methaqualone acts primarily as a central nervous system depressant, enhancing the effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that promotes sedation. Its structure features a quinazolinone core, which is responsible for its biological activity. Due to its potential for abuse and dependence, methaqualone has been classified as a controlled substance in many countries, leading to a decline in its medical use. The substance is typically encountered as a white crystalline powder and can be administered orally. However, its use is associated with various side effects, including drowsiness, dizziness, and impaired coordination, necessitating caution in its administration.
