What is the difference between Cetirizine hydrochloride and Cetirizine dihydrochloride?

The active ingredient in both pills is the same (Cetirizine). The difference between hydrochloride and dihydrochloride is the difference between the non active ingredients in the pills that are added to the drug so that there is enough bulk to make a pill. The above 'advice' is simply rubbish. Any (old Skool) A-Level chemistry student knows the difference between 'hydrochloride' and 'di-hydrochloride': Not the same molecule.However, in layman's terms: cetirizine di-hydrochloride is the real thing and is less likely to make you drowsy. Cetirizine hydrochloride is a copycat molecule to work around patent laws.From personal experience, cetirizine hydrochloride makes me drowsy, whereas cetirizine di-hydrochloride does not. :-)

What is the reaction for synthesis of benzocaine?

I believe a chloride salt of the benzocaine is the product as the HCl acid attacks the amine functional group. however ethanol may also be formed from the hydrolysis of the ester and create a carboxyl group attached to the benzene ring. This will leave two products at the end of the reaction. I myself need some clarification on the resulting products whether it be a mixture of 2 products or one product.


Why is ethanol used in excess in the preparation of benzocaine?

to shift the reaction toward the products (Benzocaine) to counteract the imposed change excess reactants so that will lead to a higher percentage of Benzocaine. according to Le Chatelier's principle
