Chemical Properties
CLEAR COLORLESS TO LIGHT YELLOW LIQUID
Uses
Pharmacological evaluation of the antagonism of nicotine's central effects by mecamylamine and pempidine where pempidine was found to increase the ED50 of nicotine (0.73 mg/kg) for depression of spontaneous activity in a dose-related manner. At a dose of 3 mg/kg, pempidine increased nicotine's ED50 4.7-fold.
Uses
ganglionic blocker, antihypertensive
Uses
1,2,2,6,6-Pentamethylpiperidine is used in the synthesis of BN-fused polycyclic aromatic molecules for potential application to electronic materials and apparatus. In addition, it is a catalyst for th
e chemoselective silylation of benzylic alcohols.
