Oxytocin (CAS 50-56-6) is a peptide hormone and neuropeptide. It is composed of nine amino acids and has a molecular formula of C43H66N12O12S2. Oxytocin is a water-soluble substance that is typically administered as a solution for injection. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is odorless and hygroscopic.

Oxytocin is known for its role in various physiological processes, particularly in reproduction and social bonding. It is commonly referred to as the "love hormone" or "cuddle hormone" due to its involvement in promoting feelings of trust, empathy, and attachment.

Oxytocin acts by binding to specific receptors in the brain, particularly in the hypothalamus. It stimulates the contraction of smooth muscles in the uterus during childbirth and promotes the release of milk from the mammary glands during breastfeeding. Additionally, oxytocin plays a role in social behaviors, such as bonding between mothers and infants, pair bonding between romantic partners, and social recognition.
