Synthesis

Since many of the uses of antihistamines involve conditions such as rashes, which should be treatable by local application, there is some rationale for developing drugs for topical use. The known side effects of antihistamines could in principle be avoided if the drug were functionalized to avoid systemic absorption. The known poor absorption of quat salts make such derivatives attractive for nonabsorbable antihistamines for topical use.

Thiazinamium chloride synthesis[1]

Thus, reaction of the well-known antihistaminic drug promethazine with methylchloride leads to thiazinamium chloride.

gollark: I can guess that much, but it doesn't appear to do anything.
gollark: ... thanks, bot? Does that actually mean anything?
gollark: > Actually, all that discussions about what better and what worse is have no sense, cuz everywhere you have a bad things and you have a good thingsI have no idea what you mean.
gollark: I mean, a 3D printer is way cheaper than other plastic-making things to buy, but if you need large quantities of plastic things then it's more expensive.
