L-371,257 is a potent and selective oxytocin receptor inhibitor. It displays >800-fold selectivity over human arginine vasopressin receptors V1a and V2. An analytical method utilizing high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with ultraviolet (UV) detection at a wavelength of 254 nm is used for its analysis.
