GENERAL DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS

Piperazine is a heterocyclic compound containing four carbon atoms and two of nitrogen at 1,4 position ( als called 1,4-hexahydropyrazine). It is a deliquescent crystalline compound melting at 105 C; soluble in water, alcohol, glycerol, and glycols. It is used as a main ingredient of anthelmintics used to treat intestinal roundworms (ascariasis) infection in human and  poultry and to treat pinworms (enterobiasis; oxyuriasis) by altering cell membrane permeability and causing hyperpolarization of the membrane. Piperazine is a main moiety in psychoactive drugs. Piperazine class drugs are suspected of ecstasy substitutes. Benzylpiperazine is bannaed in many countries. Nitrogen in piperazine ring plays an important role in biological research and drug manufacturing industry including the preparation of anthelmintic, antiallergenic, antibacterial, antihistamic, antiemetic and antimigraine agents. The piperazine ring and piperazine derivatives are important cyclic components in industrial field as raw materials for hardener of epoxy resins, corrosion inhibitors, insecticides, accelerators for rubber, urethane catalysts and antioxidants.

Trans-1-cinnamyl-piperazine is known as the key intermediate for the synthesis of cinnarizine, an antihistamine for the prevention and treatment of motional illness.
