Bromhexine API

Cas No :

3572-43-8

Name :

Bromhexine

Synonyms :

2,4-Dibromo-6-{[cyclohexyl(methyl)amino]methyl}aniline

Molecular Formula :

C14H20Br2N2

Melting Point :

240-244°C

Boiling Point :

413.8±40.0 °C at 760 mmHg

Molecular Weight :

376.136 g·mol−1

Density :

1.6±0.1 g/cm3

Solubility :

In aqueous systems bromhexine hydrochloride (Br-HCl) has a poor solubility (4.54 mg/g) and displays no amphiphilic character e.g. self association. Therefore the drug is molecularly dispersed in water until the solubility product of Br-HCl is exceeded

Uses :


  • Bromhexine is a drug that aids the body's mucus-clearing processes in the respiratory tract. It is used to relieve chest congestion. The medication belongs to a class of drugs called mucolytics, which break down mucus to make it easier to cough up. As a result, to treat cough, this medication is added to cough syrups.

Bromhexine API

Bromhexine acts on the mucus at the formative stages in the glands, within the mucus-secreting cells. Bromhexine disrupts the structure of acid mucopolysaccharide fibres in mucoid sputum and produces a less viscous mucus, which is easier to expectorate.
