Terbinafine hydrochloride CAS 78628-80-5 a synthetic allyla antifungal. It is highly lipophilic in nature and tends to accumulate in skin, nails, and fatty tissues.
Terbinafine·HCl a member of the allyl class of antifungals, has been found to be a specific inhibitor of ergosterol synthesis via squalene epoxidase inhibition. Squalene epoxidase is an enzyme released by the dermatophyte fungi to break down Squalene, which interferes with cell membrane function and wall synthesis.
Terbinafine hydrochloride has a fungicidal effect on skin fungi and an inhibitory effect on Candida albicans. It is suitable for skin and nail infections caused by superficial fungi, such as ringworm, ringworm of the body, ringworm of the femur, ringworm of the feet, ringworm of the nail and Candida albicans infection of the skin caused by Trichophyton rubrum, Microsporum canis and Flocculus epidermidis.

1. Chloral hy drate is used for the short-term treatment of insomnia and as a sedative before minor medical or dental treatment.
2. In therapeutic doses for insomnia, chloral hydrat is effective within 20 to 60 minutes. In humans it is metabolized within 7 hours into trichloroethanol and trichloroethanol glucuronide by erythrocytes and plasma esterases and into trichloroaceti acid in 4 to 5 days.
3. Chloral hy drate is a starting point for the synthesis of other organic compounds. Chloral hy drate is the starting material for the production of chloral, which is produced by the distillation of a mixture of chloral hydrat and sulfuric acid, which serves as the desiccant.
4. Chloral hy drate is used to synthesize isatin. In this synthesis, chloral hydrat reacts with anilin and hydroxylamine to give a condensation product which cyclicizes in sulfuric acid to give the target compound.
