Analysis of Benzylpiperazine-Like Compounds Hiroyuki Inoue 1
鑑識科学,9(2),165―184(2004) 165 ―Technical Note― Analysis of Benzylpiperazine-like Compounds Hiroyuki Inoue1,YukoT.Iwata1, Tatsuyuki Kanamori1, Hajime Miyaguchi1, Kenji Tsujikawa1, Kenji Kuwayama1, Hiroe Tsutsumi2, Munehiro Katagi2, Hitoshi Tsuchihashi2 and Tohru Kishi1 National Research Institute of Police Science 631, Kashiwanoha, Kashiwa, Chiba 2770882, Japan1 Forensic Science Laboratory, Osaka Prefectural Police H. Q. 1318, Hommachi, Chuo-ku, Osaka, Osaka 5410053, Japan2 (Received 6 January 2004; accepted 6 March 2004) 1-Benzylpiperazine (BZP) and 1-(3-tri‰uoromethylphenyl)piperazine, newly controlled as narcotics in Japan on 2003, and their analogues were analyzed. The analytical data with color test, thin layer chromatography (TLC), infrared spectroscopy (IR), gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) are presented. The BZP-like compounds were less sensitive to Simon's reagent than amphetamine type stimulants on spot plates. Using on-site screening kit based on Simon's test (X-Checker), BZP indicated almost the same result as methamphetamine. For TLC, the solvent system, methanol -25 aqueous ammonia (100 : 1.5), was the best among the systems examined. Iodoplatinate reagent was the most sensitive one to detect BZP. The IR spectra showed su‹cient diŠerences to make identiˆcation. Trimethylsilylation was the most appropriate choice for the GC/MS analysis of BZP-like compounds in terms of the peak shapes, separation and stability (using a J&W DB-5MS column). In LC/MS analysis, the gradient elution (10 mM formic acid and acetonitrile) using a Waters Symmetry Shield C18 column achieved discrimination of isomers except for 1-(2-‰uorophenyl) piperazine and 1-(4-‰uorophenyl)piperazine. -

A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of PhD Department of Life Sciences University of Roehampton 2013 Abstract Irregularities of the Hypothalamic Pituitary Adrenal (HPA) axis are implicated in stress-related mood disorders. The ensuing long-term elevations in circulating glucocorticoids are associated with neurobiological changes seen in depression. This thesis aims to identify some of the brain mechanisms by which exposure to chronic stress may lead to depression using a preclinical experimental approach. -

Hallucinogens And Dissociative Drug Use And Addiction Introduction Hallucinogens are a diverse group of drugs that cause alterations in perception, thought, or mood. This heterogeneous group has compounds with different chemical structures, different mechanisms of action, and different adverse effects. Despite their description, most hallucinogens do not consistently cause hallucinations. The drugs are more likely to cause changes in mood or in thought than actual hallucinations. Hallucinogenic substances that form naturally have been used worldwide for millennia to induce altered states for religious or spiritual purposes. While these practices still exist, the more common use of hallucinogens today involves the recreational use of synthetic hallucinogens. Hallucinogen And Dissociative Drug Toxicity Hallucinogens comprise a collection of compounds that are used to induce hallucinations or alterations of consciousness. Hallucinogens are drugs that cause alteration of visual, auditory, or tactile perceptions; they are also referred to as a class of drugs that cause alteration of thought and emotion. Hallucinogens disrupt a person’s ability to think and communicate effectively. Hallucinations are defined as false sensations that have no basis in reality: The sensory experience is not actually there. The term “hallucinogen” is slightly misleading because hallucinogens do not consistently cause hallucinations. 1 ce4less.com ce4less.com ce4less.com ce4less.com ce4less.com ce4less.com ce4less.com How hallucinogens cause alterations in a person’s sensory experience is not entirely understood. Hallucinogens work, at least in part, by disrupting communication between neurotransmitter systems throughout the body including those that regulate sleep, hunger, sexual behavior and muscle control. Patients under the influence of hallucinogens may show a wide range of unusual and often sudden, volatile behaviors with the potential to rapidly fluctuate from a relaxed, euphoric state to one of extreme agitation and aggression. -
Potentiation of Yohimbine-Induced Lethality in Mice: Predictor of Antidepressant Potential
Drug Development Research 3:357-363 (1983) Potentiation of Yohimbine-Induced Lethality in Mice: Predictor of Antidepressant Potential Jeffrey B. Malick Biomedical Research Department, Stuart Pharmaceuticals, Division of ICI Americas, Inc., Wilmington, Delaware ABSTRACT Malick, J.B.: Potentiation of yohimbine-induced lethality in mice: Predictor of antidepres- sant potential. Drug Dev. Res. 3:357-363, 1983. The ability of antidepressant agents to potentiate the lethal or toxic effects of yohimbine in mice was evaluated. With very few exceptions, the antidepressants were the only agents that significantly enhanced yohimbine-induced lethality. All of the clinically effective anti- depressants, both typical (e.g., amine reuptake inhibitors, monoamine oxidase inhibitors) and atypical (e.g., mianserin, iprindole, bupropion, quipazine) drugs, produced a dose- related potentiation of yohimbine in mice. Representative anxiolytics and antipsychotics failed to potentiate yohimbine over a wide range of doses. Although several possible “false positives” (e.g., atropine, chlorpheniramine, and d-amphetamine) would be detected in this procedure, these same agents would be detected in other models (e.g., tetrabenazine antagonism, behavioral despair) considered predictive of antidepressant potential. Thus, the potentiation of yohimbine-induced lethality test in mice appears to represent a useful screening procedure for discovering potential antidepressant drugs. Key words: yohimbine, antidepressants, potentiation INTRODUCTION Antidepressants potentiate -
