N-acetyl Fluoxetine, also known as Norfluoxetine, is a metabolite of the antidepressant drug Fluoxetine. It is formed when Fluoxetine is metabolized by the liver and is responsible for the prolonged effect of Fluoxetine in the body. Norfluoxetine functions as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), which means it inhibits the reuptake of serotonin in the brain, leading to an increase in the levels of serotonin available for synaptic transmission.
Norfluoxetine is used as a reference standard in pharmacological studies and as a calibration standard in clinical assays. The compound is also used as a tool in research studies to understand the mechanism of action of SSRI's and their effects on the brain.
Chemically, N-acetyl Fluoxetine is an aromatic secondary amine that contains a tertiary carbon center. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water, ethanol and methanol. The compound has a molecular weight of 315.38 g/mol and a melting point of 158-162°C.
While Norfluoxetine is generally considered safe, it is important to note that it may interact with other drugs in ways that can be harmful. It is therefore important to consult with a healthcare professional before using this compound.
