ergotamine Chemical Properties,Usage,Production
Uses
Analgesic (specific in migraine).
Uses
Ergotamine, 3′,6′,18′-trione,12′-hydroxy-2′-methyl-5′-benzyl-(5α)-ergotamine (12.2.14), is obtained via microbiological synthesis [52].As an α-adrenoblocker, ergotamine exhibits a direct vasoconstricting effect for which it is used in medicine, particularly for alleviation of severe migraine attacks. It is categorically counterproductive in chronic diseases because of the possibility of side effects such as triggering gangrene.
Definition
ChEBI: A peptide ergot alkaloid that is dihydroergotamine in which a double bond replaces the single bond between positions 9 and 10.
brand name
Ergomar (Harvest);Ergostat (Parke-Davis); Wigrettes (Organon).
Purification Methods
Crystallise it from *benzene, then dry it by prolonged heating in high vacuum. It is very hygroscopic. [Beilstein 25 III/IV 964.]
