Cas no 81024-42-2 ((S)-Metoprolol)

(S)-Metoprolol is the pharmacologically active enantiomer of metoprolol, a selective β?-adrenergic receptor blocker. Its stereospecificity enhances binding affinity to cardiac β?-receptors, resulting in improved efficacy and reduced off-target effects compared to the racemic mixture. This compound is primarily used in the management of hypertension, angina, and heart failure due to its ability to lower blood pressure and reduce myocardial oxygen demand. The (S)-enantiomer exhibits superior pharmacokinetic properties, including consistent bioavailability and predictable metabolism, making it a preferred choice for precise therapeutic applications. Its high purity and well-characterized profile ensure reliable performance in both clinical and research settings.
