N-Benzyl-4-piperidone is a potent antagonist of the histamine H1 receptor. It binds to the receptor in vivo, and it has been shown that this binding leads to a decrease in the release of neurotransmitters in the central nervous system. This drug is used for the treatment of hiv infection and for other conditions such as allergic rhinitis, chronic idiopathic urticaria, and vasomotor rhinitis. N-Benzyl-4-piperidone inhibits the reaction between propionyl chloride and dibutyltin oxide to form a dialkyl tin compound by an acylation reaction. The low energy released during this reaction may be due to hydrogen bonding between this drug and water molecules.
