Description

Off-White SolidChEBI: A hydrochloride resulting from the reaction of equimolar amounts of clomipramine and hydrogen chloride. One of the more sedating tricyclic antidepressants, it is used for the treatment of depression as well as obsessive-compulsive disorder and phobias.Clomipramine (Anafranil) is up to 50 times as potentas imipramine in some bioassays. This does not implyclinical superiority, but it might be informative about tricyclicand, possibly, other reuptake inhibitors. The chloro rep


Clomipramine hydrochloride is a hydrochloride resulting from the reaction of equimolar amounts of clomipramine and hydrogen chloride. One of the more sedating tricyclic antidepressants, it is used for the treatment of depression as well as obsessive-compulsive disorder and phobias. It has a role as an antidepressant, a serotonergic antagonist, a serotonergic drug and an anticoronaviral agent. It contains a clomipramine(1+).|Clomipramine Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of clomipramine, a tertiary amine salt derivative of dibenzazepine. Clomipramine hydrochloride is a tricyclic antidepressant that acts by reducing the re-uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin in the central nervous system, thereby enhancing the effects of these neurotransmitters. This drug also binds to alpha-adrenergic, histaminergic, and cholinergic receptors which are responsible for the many side effects seen with this agent.|A tricyclic antidepressant similar to IMIPRAMINE that selectively inhibits the uptake of serotonin in the brain. It is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and demethylated in the liver to form its primary active metabolite, desmethylclomipramine.

Drug Information

As an aid in the treatment of separation related disorders in dogs manifested by destruction and inappropriate elimination (defecation and urination) and only in combination with behavioural modification techniques.

Substances that contain a fused three-ring moiety and are used in the treatment of depression. These drugs block the uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin into axon terminals and may block some subtypes of serotonin, adrenergic, and histamine receptors. However the mechanism of their antidepressant effects is not clear because the therapeutic effects usually take weeks to develop and may reflect compensatory changes in the central nervous system. (See all compounds classified as Antidepressive Agents, Tricyclic.)|Compounds that specifically inhibit the reuptake of serotonin in the brain. (See all compounds classified as Serotonin Uptake Inhibitors.)

Clomipramine hydrochloride Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

General procedure: 4 mmol of carboxylic acid in toluene (5 vol) was added with sodium borohydride (2.5 mmol) in portions at 0-5°C. To the mixture was added EnCat Ni 2.5 percent. Gradually raise the temperature to 25-30 °C. To the mixture was added 1 mmol secondary amine. Raise the temperature to 80 °C. To the reaction mixture was added 1.5 mmol of sodiumborohydride in portions. The progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC. After the completion of reaction, reaction mixture was quenched with 1N HCl to pH 7 to 8 and separated organic solution washed with water. Solvent was distilled out under reduce pressure at 50 °C. The product was isolated by crystallisation in isopropyl alcohol and conc. Hydrochloric acid followed by filtration and drying to yield (90-99 percent) solid hydrochloride salt as product.
