| | (S)-Modafinil Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | White Solid | | Uses | (S)-Modafinil is Used for treatment of excessive sleepiness, it is a1-adrenoceptor agonist. | | Uses | Used for treatment of excessive sleepiness, α1-adrenoceptor agonist. | | Definition | ChEBI: (S)-modafinil is a 2-[(diphenylmethyl)sulfinyl]acetamide that has S configuration at the sulfur atom. The racemate comprising (S)-modafinil and its enantiomer, armodafinil, is known as modafinil and is used for the treatment of sleeping disorders such as narcolepsy, obstructive sleep apnoea, and shift-work sleep disorder. The enantiomers have similar pharmacological actions in animals. It has a role as a central nervous system stimulant and a eugeroic. It is an enantiomer of an armodafinil. |
