higenamine

Higenamine hydrochloride (norcoclaurine HCl) has been demonstrated to be a β2 adrenoreceptor agonist. Adrenergic receptors, or adrenoceptors, belong to the class of G protein–coupled receptors, and are the most prominent receptors in the adipose membrane, besides also being expressed in skeletal muscle tissue.

(S)-Higenamine ((S)-Norcoclaurine), the S-enantiomer vital for benzylisoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis, is synthesized from dopamine and 4-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (4-HPAA) through norcoclaurine synthase (NCS) catalysis [1].

(S)-Higenamine hydrobromide, an S-enantiomer of Higenamine, serves as the preliminary compound in benzylisoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis. It is formed through the condensation of dopamine and 4-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (4-HPAA) via norcoclaurine synthase (NCS)[1].

Higenamine-d4 HCl is a deuterated compound of Higenamine HCl. Higenamine HCl has a CAS number of 11041-94-4. Higenamine(Hydrochloride) has been demonstrated to be a β2 adrenoreceptor agonist. Adrenergic receptors, or adrenoceptors, belong to the class of G protein–coupled receptors, and are the most prominent receptors in the adipose membrane, besides also being expressed in skeletal muscle tissue.
