Description

3,4-Dichlorobenzamide is a synthetic opioid analgesic that binds to the μ-opioid receptor. It has a side-effect profile that is similar to other opioids, with an addiction risk and potential for abuse. 3,4-Dichlorobenzamide has been used in the synthesis of new drugs, such as phenazepam (a benzodiazepine) and etizolam (a thienodiazepine). This drug is chiral and can be synthesized in two stereoisomeric forms: 3-(+)-chloro-N-(2-chlorophenyl)benzamide and 3-(−)-chloro-N-(2-chlorophenyl)benzamide. The former form is marketed under the trade name Analgin, while the latter form is marketed under the trade name Etilex. The (+) form of this drug has a higher affinity for μ receptors than the (−) form.
