SECOBARBITAL Usage And Synthesis

Description

Secobarbital (CRM) (Item No. 21707) is a certified reference material categorized as a barbiturate. It extends intoxication and increases withdrawal effects in patients with a family history of alcoholism. Secobarbital is regulated as a Schedule II compound in the United States. Secobarbital (CRM) (Item No. 21707) is provided as a DEA exempt preparation. This product is intended for research and forensic applications.

Uses

Barbiturates are being widely used as antiepileptics, hypnotics, and anesthetics Controlled substance.

Definition

ChEBI: A member of the class of barbiturates that is barbituric acid in which the hydrogens at position 5 are substituted by prop-2-en-1-yl and pentan-2-yl groups.

brand name

Seconal(Lilly);Seconal sodium;Tuinal.

World Health Organization (WHO)

Secobarbital is a short to intermediate-acting barbiturate which is controlled under Schedule III of the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances. See WHO comment for barbiturates. (Reference: (UNCPS3) United Nations Convention on Psychotropic Substances (III), , , 1971)

Purification Methods

It is purified by dissolving the sodium salt [309-43-3] in 10% HCl which precipitates the acid form that is extracted into Et2O. The extract is dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. The residue is then purified by repeated crystallisation from CHCl3. [Buchet & Sandorfy J Phys Chem 88 3274 1984, Beilstein 24 III/IV 2013.]
