What it is Filled

Ifenprodil is a synthetic small-molecule vasodilator and noncompetitive antagonist of GluN2B-containing NMDA receptors, used pharmacologically and as a research tool.

In scope

  • Ifenprodil molecular identity and externally verified identifiers
  • Stereochemical composition and relationships between free base and supplied salts
  • Batch purity, impurities, analytical identity and provenance
  • Physical state, solubility, stability and concentration basis
  • Assay-specific biological activity and substance-level handling constraints

Out of scope

  • Finished medicines, packaging and excipient formulations
  • Patient-specific prescribing, dosing and treatment decisions
  • Manufacturing processes and synthesis routes
  • NMDA receptors and other biological targets as independently modelled entities
  • Clinical trials, diseases and therapeutic efficacy assessments

Why it exists Filled

Enable an agent to recognise ifenprodil, evaluate the identity and condition of a supplied material, and determine whether its documented properties support a proposed use.

Distinguishing features Filled

  • Match molecular connectivity to 4-[2-(4-benzylpiperidin-1-yl)-1-hydroxypropyl]phenol rather than accepting a shared pharmacological label as identity. [PubChem](https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Ifenprodil)
  • Cross-check the parent record against formula C21H27NO2, CAS 23210-56-2 and PubChem CID 3689; a formula match alone is insufficient. [PubChem](https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Ifenprodil)
  • Require explicit stereochemical evidence before treating a stereospecified material as equivalent to the parent record, whose displayed InChIKey does not specify stereochemistry. [PubChem](https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Ifenprodil)
  • Distinguish parent ifenprodil from ifenprodil tartrate by counterion and stoichiometry; PubChem maintains a separate tartrate record. [PubChem: Ifenprodil Tartrate](https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Ifenprodil-Tartrate)
  • Do not identify a material solely through an NMDA-related response: experimental work also reports presynaptic P/Q-type calcium-channel effects. [Primary study](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22205650/)

What robots and AI may and may not do Filled

Must not

  • Recommend, dose or adjust ifenprodil for a particular person.
  • Promote it for unapproved uses, such as mood or cognitive effects, without clinical evidence.
  • Help anyone obtain it without a prescription where one is required.
  • Present animal or cell research as proof of benefit in people.

Only with a human decision

  • Any prescribing or clinical trial decision involving the drug.

May

  • Describe ifenprodil, its receptor actions and its uses from official drug information and research sources.
  • Report the research grade and handling information of a sample from its safety data sheet.
  • Track stock in a laboratory or pharmacy the agent is authorized to manage.

Moral aspects Filled

  • Drugs acting on brain receptors can have serious side effects, so claims must be careful.
  • Research tools can be misused as unregulated supplements.

Who is affected

  • Patients
  • Research participants
  • Laboratory workers

Owners Filled

Steward

The prescribing clinician or the laboratory that holds it; medicines regulators authorize medical use.

Master systems

  • National medicines registers

Recognition required Filled

  • A container label naming ifenprodil distinguishes its declared contents from other receptor antagonists, although the label does not prove chemical identity.
  • The label or accompanying material record should distinguish the free base from a named salt because these are different supplied forms.
  • A white or off-white powder appearance is compatible with supplied ifenprodil materials but cannot distinguish them from many unrelated chemicals.

Capabilities and actions required Filled

  • Reconcile a supplier label and certificate with the ifenprodil parent identity and the actual supplied chemical form.
  • Calculate parent-equivalent quantities when salt stoichiometry, solvation and content are established.
  • Compare batches using chemical identity, stereochemical composition and analytical quality.
  • Assess whether a stock solution has a supported concentration and remains within documented stability conditions.
  • Evaluate whether an activity claim applies to the material and assay under consideration.
  • Flag material for additional analysis or restricted use when identity, condition or applicable handling evidence is missing.

Hazards and failure modes required Filled

  • Can lower blood pressure and cause dizziness.
  • Interactions with other drugs acting on the brain or circulation are possible.

Standards and interfaces required Filled

  • The Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical classification maintained by the World Health Organization Collaborating Centre for Drug Statistics Methodology assigns ifenprodil code C04AX28 within other peripheral vasodilators.

Context of use required Filled

  • Ifenprodil is encountered in pharmacological research, particularly studies involving GluN2B-containing NMDA receptors.
  • It also appears in pharmaceutical contexts associated with its vasodilator activity, where the chemical form and material specification affect suitability.

Open questions

  • Does the registry intend a particular stereoisomer mixture, or should vr.tr.ifenprodil retain a stereochemically unspecified parent identity?
  • Which salt stoichiometries and hydrate or solvate forms occur in the materials to be represented, and how should their identifiers link to the parent?
  • Which measured solubility, thermal and storage-stability values are sufficiently reliable for each relevant chemical form?
  • What concentration-dependent evidence establishes GluN2B-related activity and alternative target effects for the intended experimental systems?
  • Which current form-specific hazard classifications, exposure limits and jurisdictional use restrictions can be established from authoritative records?
