General description

D-(+)-Vesamicol is a potent inhibitor of acetycholine transport into the synaptic vesicles in cholinergic nerve terminals. It is 25-times less potent than the L-form.

Application

D-(+)-Vesamicol hydrochloride can be used as a reactant to prepare:
  • Trialkylstannyl vesamicol analogs as potent vesicular acetylcholine transporters (VAChTs) and sigma receptors.
  • Vesamicol analog, (+)-2-[4-(4-iodophenyl)piperidino] cyclohexanol as a possible tumor imaging agent.
