CAS 327-97-9

Chemical Formula C7H9IN2O

Molecular Weight 276.1 g/mol

Pralidoxime iodide IP is a medication used primarily as an antidote for organophosphate poisoning, particularly in cases of pesticide or nerve agent exposure. It works by reactivating acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme inhibited by organophosphates, thereby reversing the toxic effects on the nervous system. Pralidoxime Iodide is often administered alongside atropine to treat poisoning symptoms such as excessive salivation, muscle twitching, and respiratory distress. It is commonly used in emergency and hospital settings under medical supervision.

Industrial Uses

1. Pharmaceuticals

  • Antidote for Organophosphate Poisoning: Just like Pralidoxime Chloride, Pralidoxime Iodide is primarily used as an antidote to treat organophosphate poisoning. It works by reactivating acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme that is inhibited by organophosphates, thus reversing the toxic effects and restoring normal nerve function.
  • Adjunct to Atropine in Poisoning: It is commonly used in combination with atropine for the treatment of nerve agent or insecticide poisoning, as atropine addresses symptoms while pralidoxime reactivates the enzyme.
  • Pharmaceutical Intermediates: It could also be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other therapeutic compounds that target nervous system functions or for developing more effective antidotes for chemical poisoning.

2. Chemical Synthesis

  • Intermediate in Drug Development: Pralidoxime Iodide can serve as a building block in the synthesis of other oxime derivatives used for the treatment of various neurological toxicities or chemical exposure.
  • Chemical Reactions: Its iodide form can facilitate certain chemical reactions, particularly those requiring halogen exchange or nucleophilic substitution, making it a useful reagent in synthetic organic chemistry.

3. Agrochemicals

  • Antidote for Pesticide Poisoning: Used in agriculture to treat poisoning caused by organophosphate-based pesticides. Agricultural workers exposed to these chemicals can be treated with pralidoxime iodide to reverse the toxic effects.
  • Agricultural Safety Protocols: It can be used in agricultural safety protocols to ensure workers are protected from pesticide-related poisoning, reducing health risks in farming and pesticide application environments.
