Description

3-(Dimethylamino)propiophenone hydrochloride is a quaternary ammonium compound that has been used as an antimicrobial agent. 3-(Dimethylamino)propiophenone hydrochloride's antimicrobial activity is due to its ability to inhibit microbial cell wall synthesis. This drug also inhibits the growth of microsporum and other fungi, including dermatophytes. 3-(Dimethylamino)propiophenone hydrochloride's anti-infective properties are believed to be due to its quaternization of acidic groups on the microbial cell membrane, which prevents protonation and therefore prevents the transport of molecules across the membrane. 3-(Dimethylamino)propiophenone hydrochloride may also have an effect on protein synthesis by modifying ribosomes or interfering with RNA transcription or translation. The structural isomers of this drug are propiophenone and 2-dimethylaminopropiophenone, which may have
