Physical and Chemical Properties of
Inhaled Anesthetics
Halogenations of hydrocarbons & ethers increase potency
Halogenation increase the potential for inducing cardiac
arrhythmias in the following order F<Cl<Br
Ethers that have an asymmetric halogenated carbon tend to be
good anesthetics (e.g. Enflurane)
Halogenated methyl ethyl ethers (Enflurane and Isoflurane) are
more stable, are more potent, and have better clinical profile than
halogenated diethyl ethers
Fluorination decrease flammibity & increase stability of adjacent
halogenated carbons
Complete halogenations of alkane & ethers or full halogenations
of end methyl groups decrease potency & enhances convulsant
activity
The presence of double bonds tends to increase chemical
reactivity and toxicity

Intravenous Anesthetics
A measure of potency
1MAC is the concentration necessary to
prevent responding in 50% of population.
Values of MAC are additive:
– Avoid cardiovascular depressive concentration of
potent agents.
