Description
Propranolol is a nonselective β-adrenergic receptor (βAR) antagonist, has high affinity for the β1AR and β2AR with Ki values of 1.8 nM and 0.8 nM, respectively[1]. Propranolol inhibits [3H]-DHA binding to rat brain membrane preparation with an IC50 of 12 nM[2]. Propranolol is used for the study of hypertension, pheochromocytoma, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrhythmias, angina pectoris, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy[3].

Chemical Information

Propranolol

Propranolol is a propanolamine that is propan-2-ol substituted by a propan-2-ylamino group at position 1 and a naphthalen-1-yloxy group at position 3. It has a role as an anxiolytic drug, a beta-adrenergic antagonist, a vasodilator agent, an antihypertensive agent, a xenobiotic, an anti-arrhythmia drug, an environmental contaminant and a human blood serum metabolite. It is a member of naphthalenes, a secondary amine and a propanolamine. It is functionally related to a 1-naphthol.
