Oxitropium bromide (trade names Oxivent, Tersigan) is an anticholinergic used as a bronchodilator for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.^[1]

It was patented in 1966 and approved for medical use in 1983.^[2]

It is a thermosalient material.^[3]

Synthesis

Two successive alkylation reactions convert a natural product, norscopolamine (1), into oxitropium bromide.^[4] The first, with bromoethane, gives an N-ethyl intermediate (2), which is treated with bromomethane.^[5]^[6]^[7]
