What is Chlormerodrin?

Plain description, key identifiers and synonyms

Chlormerodrin is urea in which one of the hydrogens is substituted by a 3-chloromercury-2-methoxyprop-1-yl group. It was formerly used as a diuretic, but more potent and less toxic drugs are now available. Its radiolabelled (197Hg, 203Hg) forms were used in diagnostic aids in renal imaging and brain scans. It has a role as a diagnostic agent and a diuretic. It is an organomercury compound and a member of ureas.
