Bromazine, sold under the brand namesAmbodryl,Ambrodil, andDeserol among others, also known asbromodiphenhydramine, is anantihistamine andanticholinergic medication of theethanolamine class.[1][2][3][4][5] It is ananalogue ofdiphenhydramine with abrominesubstitution on one of thephenyl rings.[1][2]
Grignard reaction betweenphenylmagnesium bromide and para-bromobenzaldehyde [1122-91-4] (1) gives p-bromobenzhydrol [29334-16-5] (2). Halogenation withacetyl bromide in benzene solvent gives p-bromo-benzhydrylbromide [18066-89-2] (3). Finally, etherification withdeanol completed the synthesis of Bromazine (4).
Continuous and/or cumulative use ofanticholinergic medications, including first-generation antihistamines, is associated with higher risk forcognitive decline anddementia in elderly people.[8][9]
