Short description: Chemical compound

Trional (Methylsulfonal) is a sedative-hypnotic^[1] and anesthetic drug with GABAergic actions^{[citation needed]}. It has similar effects to sulfonal, except it is faster acting.^[2]

History

Trional was prepared and introduced by Eugen Baumann and Alfred Kast in 1888.^[3]

Cultural references

Appeared in Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express, And Then There Were None, and other novels such as John Bude's The Lake District Murder as a sleep-inducing sedative; and in In Search of Lost Time (Sodom and Gomorrah) by Marcel Proust as a hypnotic. Sax Rohmer also references trional in his novel Dope.
