2-(diethylamino)ethyl 2-acetoxybenzoate hydrochloride is a quaternary ammonium salt derivative of aspirin, synthesized via esterification followed by hydrochlorination. Its molecular formula is C15H21NO4·HCl. This compound serves as a prodrug to enhance the bioavailability of acetylsalicylic acid while mitigating gastric irritation.
Strictly avoid use in patients with aspirin hypersensitivity or active peptic ulcers. Store in sealed containers at controlled room temperature away from moisture to prevent hydrolysis. Handle with appropriate PPE due to potential respiratory and dermal sensitization risks.
