rac Metoprolol-d6 Hemi (+)-Tartrate is a deuterated version of the beta-blocker drug metoprolol, which is commonly used to treat high blood pressure, angina, and heart conditions. In this compound, six hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, allowing for enhanced tracking and analysis in pharmacokinetic studies using techniques like mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. The “rac” denotes that it is a racemic mixture, containing equal amounts of both enantiomers. The hemi (+)-tartrate salt form improves the solubility and stability of the compound, retaining its therapeutic effects while providing a valuable tool for research purposes.
