As a result, three characteristic peaks ([M] and fragments from the Cβ-Cα bond breakage) were found to be unique and contained information useful in identifying 2C series compounds based on the GC-EI/MS method. We found that the protonated molecular ion ([M+H]+) and two types of fragments produced from the α-cleavage and β-cleavage processes were useful mass spectral information in the rapid screening and confirmation of phenethylamine and tryptamine derivatives when ESI/MS and MALDI/TOFMS methods were applied. This assay was successfully used to determine samples that contain illicit drugs. Keywords: phenethylamine; tryptamine; MALDI/TOFMS; GC-EI/MS; LC-ESI/MS 1.

Kohler, Ph.D. Western Michigan University, 2020 The resurgence of Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD) as a therapeutic tool requires a revival in research, both basic and clinical, to bridge gaps in knowledge left from a previous generation of work. Currently, no study has been published with the intent of establishing optimal microdose concentrations of LSD in an animal model.

Based on the GC–EI/MS, LC–ESI/ MS and MALDI/TOFMS, the mass fragmentations of 13 standard compounds, including ␣-methyltryptamine (AMT), N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), 5-methoxy-␣-methyltryptamine (5-MeO-AMT), N,N-diethyltryptamine (DET), N,N-dipropyltryptamine (DPT), N,N-dibutyltryptamine (DBT), N,N-diisopropyltryptamine (DIPT), 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT), 5-methoxy-N,N-diisopropyltryptamine (5-MeO- DIPT), methamphetamine (MAMP), 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (3,4-MDA), 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (3,4-MDMA) and 2- methylamino-1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)butane (MBDB), were compared. As a result, the parent ions of these analytes were hard to be obtained by GC/MS whereas the protonated molecular ions can be observed clearly by means of ESI/MS and MALDI/TOFMS. Furthermore, two major + + + + characteristic fragmentations, namely and ␣-cleavage ([M +H] → [3-vinylindole] ) and ␤-cleavage ([M +H] → [CH2N RN1RN2]), are produced when the ESI and MALDI modes are used, respectively. In the case of ESI/MS, the fragment obtained from ␣-cleavage is the major process.

We thought it was an appropriate choice to ex- press our emotions at obtaining Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval for Dr. Mithoefer's MAPS-sponsored MDMA/PTSD study (see page 7). The rest of the images on this page and on the back cover are from the 2003 Burning Man Festival, at which MAPS provided psychedelic emergency services. (Article on page 28). In the photo above, members of the Fire Conclave open the festivities at the Burning of the Man, the climax of the week-long festival. The photo below depicts the more somber burning of the Temple of Honor, at which Burning Man participants remember loved ones by leaving notes and tokens inside. As the temple burned, MAPS president Rick Doblin threw in the fire the original copies of the last set of documents about protocol design issues exchanged between MAPS and the IRB. This symbolized his hopes that we would finally move beyond the paperwork of the approval process to the therapeutic work of the study itself.

  • Update of the Generic Definition for Tryptamines
    ACMD Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs Chair: Professor Les Iversen Secretary: Zahi Sulaiman 2nd Floor (NW), Seacole Building 2 Marsham Street London SW1P 4DF Tel: 020 7035 1121 [email protected] Norman Baker MP, Minister for Crime Prevention Home Office 2 Marsham Street London SW1P 4DF 10 June 2014 Dear Minister, In December 2013, you commissioned the ACMD to begin a regular review of generic definitions under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971, with the aim of capturing emerging new psychoactive substances. These drugs are variants of controlled drugs and fall outside the existing scope of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. The ACMD has considered evidence available on tryptamines in the context of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 and I enclose the Advisory Council’s advice and an expanded definition for tryptamine compounds with this letter. The ACMD’s NPS Committee has firstly reviewed previous research and existing controls to identify those tryptamines now seen to evade the existing controls. The ACMD has also reviewed data provided by the Home Office’s early warning systems and networks, clinical toxicology, prevalence and neuropharmacology in arriving at the expanded generic definition. This expanded generic definition will bring drugs such as alpha-methyltryptamine (AMT) as well as 5-MeO-DALT within the scope of the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. These are highly potent hallucinogens which act on the 5HT2A receptor, in the same way as LSD. The ACMD therefore recommends that the tryptamines covered by the proposed expanded generic definition in this report, are controlled under the Misuse of Drugs Act (1971) as Class A substances.
