    • Chemical Class:

      A pentaerythritol nitrate in which all four hydroxy groups of pentaerythritol have been converted to the corresponding nitrate ester. It is a vasodilator with properties similar to those of glyceryl t rinitrate, but with a more prolonged duration of action, and is used for treatment of angina pectoris. It is also one of the most powerful high explosives known and is a component of the plastic explo sive known as Semtex. ChEBI https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/searchId.do?chebiId=CHEBI:25879, CHEBI:25879
