Quinine hydrochloride has the characteristics of antipyretic, antimalarial, analgesic, anti-inflammatory and so on. The synthetic method of quinine hcl: after converting quinine sulfate into quinine, quinine was dispersed in the dispersant, then hydrochloric acid or hydrogen chloride gas was added, and then it was obtained by crystallization. The present invention only uses common acids and bases, common solvents with low toxicity and low price, and does not use chemical reagents with high toxicity.

The whole preparation process of the invention is simple, convenient and low cost, which is conducive to scale-up production.


It is an important compound commonly used in pharmaceutical preparations.
1. Natural extraction method:
The earliest method for synthesizing Quinine hydrochloride was obtained by natural extraction from plants in the genus Acacia. The plants of the genus Albizia contain high concentrations of quinine, which can be extracted, purified, and treated with hydrochloric acid to obtain product. Although this method obtains drugs from natural resources, it has problems such as low extraction efficiency and complex processes.

2. Synthesis method:
At present, the main production method of it is through chemical synthesis. The following are several commonly used synthesis methods:
This is a common synthesis method, with the following steps:
-The quinoline is reacted with a Ammoxidation agent (such as hydrogen peroxide) to obtain quinoline N-oxide.
-After a reduction reaction, the N-oxide is reduced to the corresponding secondary amine.
-React the secondary amine with hydrochloric acid to produce.
This is another commonly used synthesis method, with the following steps:
-The o-nitrophenol reacts with acetic acid to form Nitrate ester.
-After the reduction reaction, the Nitrate ester ester is reduced to the corresponding amine.
-React amine with hydrochloric acid to produce.
This is an economical and efficient synthesis method, with the following steps:
-Using Sodium sulfite and sugar as raw materials, xanthic acid was obtained by Marga liquefaction under alkaline conditions.
-Under the catalysis of sulfuric acid, xanthic acid and Aminoaldehydes and aminoketones undergo Condensation reaction to obtain quinoline compound.
-After subsequent steps such as oxidation, reduction, and hydrochloric acid treatment, it can be obtained.
This is a method of obtaining product by converting synthesized compounds into intermediates, and the specific steps vary depending on the intermediate. Common intermediates include quinoline, butyraldehyde, and acetamide compounds.
These synthesis methods are widely used in industrial production, and suitable methods can be selected according to needs. In addition to the above synthesis methods, there are also other methods, such as enzymatic synthesis, microbial fermentation, etc., but these methods are currently less applied in industrial production.

What are the side effects of this compound?
1.Golden Chicken Reaction
When its daily dosage exceeds 1g or is used continuously for a long time, it often leads to the reaction of cinchona. This reaction is roughly similar to the salicylic acid reaction, specifically manifested as:
- Tinnitus, headache, nausea, vomiting
- Vision and hearing loss, severe cases may result in temporary deafness, but usually recover after discontinuation of medication

It also has a certain impact on the cardiovascular system, and the following symptoms may occur:
Inhibition of myocardium, dilation of peripheral blood vessels, leading to a sudden drop in blood pressure.
Slow and shallow breathing, fever, irritability, delirium, etc.
Abnormal electrocardiogram, such as QRS widening, QT prolongation, T wave changes, conduction disorders, or ventricular tachycardia.
Severe cases may lead to circulatory collapse and even death.
4.Hematological system reaction
Long term or excessive use of it may lead to thrombocytopenia and cause hemorrhagic diseases. In addition, a small amount of this substance can cause acute hemolysis (black urine fever) and death in a few patients with malignant malaria.
5.Digestive system response
Quinine hydrochloride may also cause discomfort in the digestive system, specifically manifested as:
Nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, bloating, diarrhea, etc
6.Other reactions
In addition to the above reactions, it may also cause the following symptoms:
- Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, asthma, etc
- When the substance is poisoned, renal failure may occur, possibly due to circulatory failure
- Pregnant women using it may cause miscarriage and may affect fetal hearing and central nervous system through the placenta
- It may also cause photosensitive reactions, leading to skin allergies to sunlight

Precautions
1.Follow the doctor's advice to take medication
Strictly control the dosage of quinine and use it according to the recommended dosage prescribed by the doctor or drug instructions. Do not increase or decrease the dosage or change the medication method on your own.
It is generally better to take it orally and not to administer it intravenously or rapidly drip it.
2.Monitor physical reactions
Pay close attention to physical reactions, such as nausea, vomiting, headache, abdominal pain, diarrhea, arrhythmia, muscle soreness and other side effects, and seek medical advice promptly.
It may cause symptoms such as palpitations, chest tightness, and difficulty breathing. In severe cases, it can lead to fainting and sudden death. Special attention should be paid to monitoring the heart.
3.Special populations should use with caution
Pregnant and lactating women should use it with caution to avoid affecting the health of the fetus or infant.
Individuals with myasthenia gravis or a history of allergies to quinine are contraindicated.
People with a history of black urine fever should use it with caution. If there are signs of hemolysis, stop taking the medication immediately.
It is not suitable for patients with specific heterogeneous manifestations, such as skin reactions, angioedema, and audio-visual symptoms, including tinnitus and optic neuritis.
4.Pay attention to drug interactions
- It should be used with caution when combined with anticoagulants, as it can inhibit the synthesis of prothrombin in the liver and enhance the effectiveness of anticoagulants.
- During use, avoid sharing with other medications that may cause nausea and vomiting.
5.Diet and lifestyle regulation
- During medication, sufficient water intake should be maintained to reduce its toxic effects.
- Pay attention to dietary hygiene and avoid consuming too much greasy and irritating food to avoid increasing the burden on the gastrointestinal tract.
- Maintain good sleep habits and avoid unfavorable factors such as staying up late and overexertion.
6.Other precautions
- Throughout the entire treatment process, blood sugar should be monitored at all times, as both malaria itself and quinine can increase insulin secretion and cause hypoglycemia.
- If you need to use it together with other drugs, you should consult a doctor or pharmacist to understand the interactions between drugs and the potential risks.
