Description

Veratramide is a levorotatory, vanillic acid that has been synthesized by hydrolysis of esomeprazole. It is an ester of vanillic acid and hydrochloric acid. The cis-isomer is the more active form. Veratramide has been shown to be a prodrug for cisplatin, which is used in the treatment of cancer. Veratramide can also be metabolized to acetyl derivatives or flavonoids such as vitexin and metformin hydrochloride, which have anti-diabetic effects. Veratramide also binds to chloride ion channels, hypervalent ions (e.g., AlCl3), and quaternary ammonium salts (e.g., tetraethylammonium chloride).
