1. Basic Information
Name: Probenecid
Alias: 4-(Dipropylsulfamoyl)benzoic acid
CAS No.: 57-66-9
Molecular Formula: C13H19NO4S
Molecular Weight: 285.36
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Properties
- Appearance: White crystalline powder
- Odor: Odorless, faint bitter taste
- Solubility: Insoluble in water; soluble in ethanol, acetone, chloroform, dilute alkaline aqueous solution; slightly soluble in methanol
- Melting Point: 198–201 °C
- Hygroscopicity: Non-hygroscopic under normal ambient humidity
- Crystal Form: Fine needle crystals recrystallized from ethanol
Chemical Properties
- Molecular structure: Benzoic acid derivative with dipropylsulfamoyl substituent on para position of benzene ring
- Acid-base property: Weak organic acid, reacts with alkalis to form water-soluble probenecid salts
- Pharmacological characteristic: Inhibits renal tubular organic acid secretion, reduces urinary excretion of penicillin, cephalosporins and uric acid
- Thermal stability: Stable below 160 °C; thermal decomposition occurs above melting point
- Photostability: Stable under normal indoor light; avoid long-term intense UV irradiation
- Compatibility: Compatible with neutral organic solvents and most pharmaceutical excipients; incompatible with strong oxidants, concentrated strong acid and heavy metal ions
3. Main Application Fields
1. Pharmaceutical API (Core Application)
- Uricosuric drug for clinical treatment of hyperuricemia and gout
- Adjuvant medicine to increase blood concentration of penicillin and cephalosporin antibiotics by delaying renal excretion
- Raw material for oral tablets and compound pharmaceutical preparations
2. Forensic & Clinical Testing Reference Standard
HPLC/LC-MS calibration standard for detecting uric acid regulators in blood and urine samples
3. Pharmacological Laboratory Reagent
Research tool for renal organic anion transporter (OAT) inhibition experiments
