Vasodilator
Vasodilation, also known as vasorelaxation, is the widening of blood vessels. It results from relaxation of smooth muscle cells within the vessel walls, in particular in the large veins, large arteries, and smaller arterioles. Blood vessel walls are composed of endothelial tissue and a basal membrane lining the lumen of the vessel, concentric smooth muscle layers on top of endothelial tissue, and an adventitia over the smooth muscle layers. Relaxation of the smooth muscle layer allows the blood vessel to dilate, as it is held in a semi-constricted state by sympathetic nervous system activity. Vasodilation is the opposite of vasoconstriction, which is the narrowing of blood vessels. When blood vessels dilate, the flow of blood is increased due to a decrease in vascular resistance and increase in cardiac output. Vascular resistance is the amount of force circulating blood must overcome in order to allow perfusion of body tissues. Narrow vessels create more vascular resistan ...

Nitrate Esters
In organic chemistry, a nitrate ester is an organic functional group with the formula , where R stands for any organyl group. They are the esters of nitric acid and alcohols. A well-known example is nitroglycerin, which is not a ''nitro'' compound, despite its name. : Synthesis and reactions Nitrate esters are typically prepared by condensation of nitric acid and the alcohol: For example, the simplest nitrate ester, methyl nitrate, is formed by reaction of methanol and nitric acid in the presence of sulfuric acid: :CH3OH + HNO3 -> CH3ONO2 + H2O Formation of a nitrate ester is called a nitrooxylation (less commonly, nitroxylation). Most commonly, "mixed acid" (nitric and sulfuric acids) are used, but in the 1980s production of the nitrocellulose with magnesium nitrate as a dehydrating agent was started in the US. In laboratory, phosphoric acid and phosphorus pentoxide or acetic acid and its anhydride may be used for the same purpose, or the nitroxylation can be conducted ...
