FSI-D-16-00226R1 Title
Elsevier Editorial System(tm) for Forensic Science International Manuscript Draft Manuscript Number: FSI-D-16-00226R1 Title: An overview of Emerging and New Psychoactive Substances in the United Kingdom Article Type: Review Article Keywords: New Psychoactive Substances Psychostimulants Lefetamine Hallucinogens LSD Derivatives Benzodiazepines Corresponding Author: Prof. Simon Gibbons, Corresponding Author's Institution: UCL School of Pharmacy First Author: Simon Gibbons Order of Authors: Simon Gibbons; Shruti Beharry Abstract: The purpose of this review is to identify emerging or new psychoactive substances (NPS) by undertaking an online survey of the UK NPS market and to gather any data from online drug fora and published literature. Drugs from four main classes of NPS were identified: psychostimulants, dissociative anaesthetics, hallucinogens (phenylalkylamine-based and lysergamide-based materials) and finally benzodiazepines. For inclusion in the review the 'user reviews' on drugs fora were selected based on whether or not the particular NPS of interest was used alone or in combination. NPS that were use alone were considered. Each of the classes contained drugs that are modelled on existing illegal materials and are now covered by the UK New Psychoactive Substances Bill in 2016.

Peakal: Protons I Have Known and Loved — Fifty Shades of Grey-Market Spectra
PeakAL: Protons I Have Known and Loved — Fifty shades of grey-market spectra Stephen J. Chapman* and Arabo A. Avanes * Correspondence to: Isomer Design, 4103-210 Victoria St, Toronto, ON, M5B 2R3, Canada. E-mail: [email protected] 1H NMR spectra of 28 alleged psychedelic phenylethanamines from 15 grey-market internet vendors across North America and Europe were acquired and compared. Members from each of the principal phenylethanamine families were analyzed: eleven para- substituted 2,5-dimethoxyphenylethanamines (the 2C and 2C-T series); four para-substituted 3,5-dimethoxyphenylethanamines (mescaline analogues); two β-substituted phenylethanamines; and ten N-substituted phenylethanamines with a 2-methoxybenzyl (NBOMe), 2-hydroxybenzyl (NBOH), or 2,3-methylenedioxybenzyl (NBMD) amine moiety. 1H NMR spectra for some of these compounds have not been previously reported to our knowledge. Others have reported on the composition of “mystery pills,” single-dose formulations obtained from retail shops and websites. We believe this is the first published survey of bulk “research chemicals” marketed and sold as such. Only one analyte was unequivocally misrepresented. This collection of experimentally uniform spectra may help forensic and harm-reduction organizations identify these compounds, some of which appear only sporadically. The complete spectra are provided as supplementary data.[1] Keywords: 1H NMR, drug checking, grey markets, research chemicals, phenylethanamines, N-benzyl phenylethanamines, PiHKAL DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.16889/isomerdesign-1 Published: 1 August 2015 Version: 1.03 “Once you get a serious spectrum collection, Nevertheless, an inherent weakness of grey markets is the the tendency is to push it as far as you can.”1 absence of regulatory oversight. -
Comparison of the Characteristic Mass Fragmentations of Phenethylamines and Tryptamines by Electron Ionization Gas Chromatograph
applied sciences Article Comparison of the Characteristic Mass Fragmentations of Phenethylamines and Tryptamines by Electron Ionization Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry, Electrospray and Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Mass Spectrometry Bo-Hong Chen, Ju-Tsung Liu, Hung-Ming Chen, Wen-Xiong Chen and Cheng-Huang Lin * Department of Chemistry, National Taiwan Normal University, 88 Sec. 4 Tingchow Road, Taipei 11677, Taiwan; [email protected] (B.-H.C.); [email protected] (J.-T.L.); [email protected] (H.-M.C.); [email protected] (W.-X.C.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +886-2-7734-6170; Fax: +886-2-2932-4249 Received: 18 April 2018; Accepted: 19 June 2018; Published: 22 June 2018 Abstract: Characteristic mass fragmentation of 20 phenethylamine/tryptamine standards were investigated and compared by means of matrix assisted laser desorption/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI/TOFM), gas chromatography–electron ionization–mass spectrometry (GC-EI/MS) and liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization/mass spectrometry (LC-ESI/MS) + methods. 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. -
Colorimetric Approaches to Drug Analysis and Applications – a Review
REVIEW ARTICLE Am. J. PharmTech Res. 2019; 9(01) ISSN: 2249-3387 Journal home page: http://www.ajptr.com/ Colorimetric Approaches To Drug Analysis And Applications – A Review Sowjanya Gummadi*, Mohana Kommoju Department of Pharmaceutical Analysis, Institute of Pharmacy, GITAM (Deemed to be University), Visakhapatnam-530045, Andhra Pradesh, India ABSTRACT The main purpose of this review is to highlight the importance of colorimetric approaches to drug analysis both in dosage forms as well as biological samples. Colorimetric methods using colorimetric reagents are highly sensitive, specific and an easy way of determining various analytes in a variety of matrices within a short time. The colorimetric procedures discussed are statistically validated and reported in various quality control laboratories. Hence in the present review significance of colorimetric procedures, various reagents used along with principles and applications are mentioned. Key words: Colorimetric approaches, sensitive, matrices, quality control, applications. *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] Received 01 November 2018, Accepted 23 December 2018 Please cite this article as: Gummadi S et al., Colorimetric Approaches To Drug Analysis And Applications – A Review. American Journal of PharmTech Research 2019. Gummadi et. al., Am. J. PharmTech Res. 2019; 9(01) ISSN: 2249-3387 INTRODUCTION Colorimetry is a technique which involves the quantitative estimation of colors frequently used in biochemical investigation. Color can be produced by any substance when it binds with color forming chromogens. The difference in color intensity results in difference in the absorption of light. The intensity of color is directly proportional to the concentration of the compound being measured.1 Wavelength between 380 nm to 780 nm forms the visible band of light in electromagnetic spectrum. -

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. -
