The closest thing I found was Esmolol- it just lacks the methyl group you need.

Oh, by the way the IUPAC name for Esmolol is

methyl (RS)-3-{4-[2-hydroxy-3-(propan-2-ylamino)propoxy]phenyl}propanoate

I think you can figure it out from here since it is just the addition of one extra methyl group.

Adios!

I think the ester is ethyl ester (by the way chimicals has said), but what does beta blocker means?
