Cisatracurium Besylate (CAS 96946-42-8) is a non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent and the single (1R,1'R) stereoisomer of atracurium. The molecule consists of two quaternary isoquinolinium moieties linked by a pentamethylene diester chain, with defined (1R,1'R) stereochemistry.
Cisatracurium Besylate is a neuromuscular blocking agent API and reference standard for quality control. The compound is synthesized from R-tetrahydropapaverine-N-acetyl-L-leucine salt with high chiral purity . In quality control contexts, Cisatracurium Besylate and its related impurities—including Impurity C (European Pharmacopoeia)—are essential analytical reference standards for impurity profiling and method development . Cisatracurium Besylate Injection is prepared with pH adjusted to 3.0–3.8 and filled under nitrogen to maintain stability .

Pharmacokinetics
After intravenous injection into body tissues, this product rapidly exerts its pharmacological effect at the target site, and can cross the placenta to enter the fetal circulation.
Application
Cisatracurium besilate is indicated for assisted endotracheal intubation requiring skeletal muscle relaxation, mechanical ventilation, and various types of surgery. Due to its longer half-life and lower dependence on the Hofmann elimination pathway, atracurium is suitable for muscle relaxation maintenance in patients undergoing long-duration surgery and in intensive care units.
Pharmacological Action
The mechanism of action of cisatracurium besilate is similar to that of tubocurarine chloride, but this product is a non-depolarizing muscle relaxant. It mainly blocks the conduction of nerve impulses, relaxes muscles and can release histamine, but the effect is milder than that of tubocurarine. It is characterized by rapid onset and high muscle relaxant effect.
