Synthesis and characterization of several local anaesthetics

Three local anaesthetics, tetracaine, lidocaine and benzocaine were synthesized and characterized. Tetracaine or 2-(diethylamino)ethyl 4-butylaminobenzoate was synthesized using two approaches. The first approach was a direct esterification of 4-butylaminobenzoic acid with 2-(diethylamino)ethanol in...
