cephaeline Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Crystalline Solid

Uses

Has been used as an emetic and expectorant

Uses

Cephaeline occurs in the ground roots ofipecac along with emetine. The Brazilian variety usually contains about 0.5%cephaeline. It is used as an emetic and anti amebic reagent.

Definition

ChEBI: A pyridoisoquinoline comprising emetam having a hydroxy group at the 6'-position and methoxy substituents at the 7'-, 10- and 11-positions.

Health Hazard

The toxicity of cephaeline is lower than thatof emetine. The toxic effects are cumula tive. Ingestion of high doses may producehypotension, muscle weakness, and gastroin testinal problems, including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
