I am especially grateful to my mentor as well as my friend, Dr. Jim Schenk, for the infinite support, patience, and encouragement. Jim, you allowed me to learn, think and find answers on my own, but at the same time you provided help whenever I needed it. You also encouraged me to believe who I am. You taught me how to write a scientific paper and allowed me to write in my own words. You also provided me much help with giving presentations, which I am still learning about. In addition to science knowledge, I learned a lot from you on cooking, food, American culture, and arts. I really enjoyed the time when we gathered and shared food, and of course, your food is always so tasty. I know I am going to miss it! I also enjoyed our talks, and I never met a person who has as much knowledge as you do.

  • Review: Synthetic Methods for Amphetamine
    Review: Synthetic Methods for Amphetamine A. Allen1 and R. Ely2 1Array BioPharma Inc., Boulder, Colorado 80503 2Drug Enforcement Administration, San Francisco, CA Abstract: This review focuses on synthesis of amphetamine. The chemistry of these methods will be discussed, referenced and precursors highlighted. This review covers the period 1985 to 2009 with emphasis on stereoselective synthesis, classical non-chiral synthesis and bio-enzymatic reactions. The review is directed to the Forensic Community and thus highlights precursors, reagents, stereochemistry, type and name reactions. The article attempts to present, as best as possible, a list of references covering amphetamine synthesis from 1900 -2009. Although this is the same fundamental ground as the recent publication by K. Norman; “Clandestine Laboratory Investigating Chemist Association” 19, 3(2009)2-39, this current review offers another perspective. Keywords: Review, Stereoselective, Amphetamine, Syntheses, references, Introduction: It has been 20 years since our last review of the synthetic literature for the manufacture of amphetamine and methamphetamine. Much has changed in the world of organic transformation in this time period. Chiral (stereoselective) synthetic reactions have moved to the forefront of organic transformations and these stereoselective reactions, as well as regio-reactions and biotransformations will be the focus of this review. Within the synthesis of amphetamine, these stereoselective transformations have taken the form of organometallic reactions, enzymatic reactions, ring openings, - aminooxylations, alkylations and amination reactions. The earlier review (J. Forensic Sci. Int. 42(1989)183-189) addressed for the most part, the ―reductive‖ synthetic methods leading to this drug of abuse. It could be said that the earlier review dealt with ―classical organic transformations,‖ roughly covering the period from 1900-1985.

ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is finalizing the designation of the chemical alpha-phenylacetoacetonitrile (APAAN) and its salts, optical isomers, and salts of optical isomers, as a list I chemical under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). The DEA proposed control of APAAN, due to its use in clandestine laboratories to illicitly manufacture the schedule II controlled substances phenylacetone (also known as phenyl-2-propanone or P2P), methamphetamine, and amphetamine. This rulemaking finalizes, without change, the control of APAAN as a list I chemical. This action does not establish a threshold for domestic and international transactions of APAAN. As such, all transactions involving APAAN, regardless of size, shall be regulated. In addition, chemical mixtures containing APAAN are not exempt from regulatory requirements at any concentration. Therefore, all transactions of chemical 1 mixtures containing any quantity of APAAN shall be regulated pursuant to the CSA. However, manufacturers may submit an application for exemption for those mixtures that do not qualify for automatic exemption.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. SUMMARY: The Drug Enforcement Administration is proposing the control of the chemical methyl alpha-phenylacetoacetate (also known as MAPA; methyl 3-oxo-2- phenylbutanoate; methyl 2-phenylacetoacetate; α-acetyl-benzeneacetic acid, methyl ester; and CAS Number: 16648-44-5) and its optical isomers as a list I chemical under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). Methyl alpha-phenylacetoacetate is used in clandestine laboratories to illicitly manufacture the schedule II controlled substances phenylacetone (also known as phenyl-2-propanone or P2P), methamphetamine, and amphetamine and is important to the manufacture of these controlled substances. If finalized, this action would subject handlers of methyl alpha-phenylacetoacetate to the chemical regulatory provisions of the CSA and its implementing regulations. This rulemaking does not establish a threshold for domestic and international transactions of methyl alpha-phenylacetoacetate. As such, all transactions of chemical mixtures containing methyl alpha-phenylacetoacetate would be regulated at any concentration and would be subject to control under the CSA.

  • List of Controlled Substances Disclaimer Section 812 of The
    List of Controlled Substances Disclaimer Section 812 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. §801 et seq.) (CSA) lists substances which were controlled in 1970 when the law was enacted. Since then, approximately 160 substances have been added, removed, or transferred from one schedule to another. The current official list of controlled substances can be found in section 1308 of the most recent issue of Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 1300 to end (21 CFR §1308) and the final rules which were published in the Federal Register subsequent to the issuance of the CFR. This list describes the basic or parent chemical and do not describe the salts, isomers and salts of isomers, esters, ethers and derivatives which may be controlled substances. These lists are intended as general references and are not comprehensive listings of all controlled substances. Please note that a substance need not be listed as a controlled substance to be treated as a Schedule I substance for criminal prosecution. A controlled substance analogue is a substance which is intended for human consumption and is structurally or pharmacologically substantially similar to or is represented as being similar to a Schedule I or Schedule II substance and is not an approved medication in the United States. (See 21 U.S.C. §802(32)(A) for the definition of a controlled substance analogue and 21 U.S.C. §813 for the schedule.)
