Definition ChEBI: The monohydrochloride salt of oxybuprocaine.
Brand name Dorsacaine (Novartis).
structure and hydrogen bonding Oxybuprocaine hydrochloride acts as a local anesthetic and is used in eye drop formulations. Mod. II, the stable polymorphic form, contains two molecules with markedly different conformations (stretched and bent). The 13C CPMAS NMR spectrum of this sample12 showed crystallographic splittings arising from the fact that there are two molecules in the asymmetric unit. An INADEQUATE two-dimensional experiment was used to link signals for the same independent molecule. Of the four ethyl groups attached to NHt nitrogens, one gives rise to unusually low chemical shifts, very different from those of the other three groups. This was attributed to gamma-gauche conformational effects, and confirmed by shielding computations. The oxybuprocaine system is too large for computations performed on the crystallographic unit and the intermolecular shielding effects have to be neglected. Nevertheless, the computed shifts do match the order of the experimental ones. The assignment of 13C signals to specific carbons in the two crystallographically inequivalent molecules of oxybuprocaine polymorph showed the power of NMR crystallography.
