Molecular Formula: C19H24N2S.HCl
Molecular Weight: 348.93
Percent Composition: C 65.40%, H 7.22%, N 8.03%, S 9.19%, Cl 10.16%
Properties: Crystals from ethylene dichloride, mp 223-225° (some decompn). Lower melting points reported are caused by admixture with 10-(2-diethylamino-1-methylethyl)phenothiazine-HCl which melts at 166-168°. One gram dissolves in 400 ml water at 20°, in 20 ml water at 40°. Sol in ethanol, chloroform. Soly in abs ethanol at 25° = 1.0 g/30 ml. Sparingly sol in acetone. Practically insol in ether, benzene. pH of a 5% aq soln is about 5.8. LD50 s.c. in mice: 670 mg/kg (Farquharson, Johnston).
Melting point: mp 223-225° (some decompn)
