Butyltolylquinuclidine
2-Butyl-3-(p-tolyl)quinuclidine (BTQ) is a stimulant DRI. It is one of a number of substituted quinuclidine derivatives developed as potential medications for the treatment of cocaine abuse, and produces similar effects to cocaine in animal studies, although milder and longer-lasting. See also * AL-1095 AL-1095, is a centrally acting stimulant drug with comparable effects to amphetamine, developed by Bristol in the 1970s. Synthesis The first-step is a mixed-aldol condensation between 3-quinuclidinone 731-38-2(1) and benzaldehyde (2) gives 2-b ...

AL-1095
AL-1095, is a centrally acting stimulant drug with comparable effects to amphetamine, developed by Bristol in the 1970s. Synthesis The first-step is a mixed-aldol condensation between 3-quinuclidinone 731-38-2(1) and benzaldehyde (2) gives 2-benzylidene-3-oxoquinuclidine 4123-89-5(3). The conjugate addition of the Grignard reagent formed from 4- bromochlorobenzene 06-39-8(4) to the enone gives the benzhydryl (5). MPV reduction of the carbonyl gives the syn stereoisomers, whereas borohydride gave trans. Both diastereoisomers are active but in only one of the enantiomers.

Stimulant
Stimulants (also often referred to as psychostimulants or colloquially as uppers) is an overarching term that covers many drugs including those that increase activity of the central nervous system and the body, drugs that are pleasurable and invigorating, or drugs that have sympathomimetic effects. Stimulants are widely used throughout the world as prescription medicines as well as without a prescription (either legally or illicitly) as performance-enhancing or recreational drugs. Among narcotics, stimulants produce a noticeable crash or '' comedown'' at the end of their effects. The most frequently prescribed stimulants as of 2013 were lisdexamfetamine (Vyvanse), methylphenidate (Ritalin), and amphetamine (Adderall). It was estimated in 2015 that the percentage of the world population that had used cocaine during a year was 0.4%. For the category "amphetamines and prescription stimulants" (with "amphetamines" including amphetamine and methamphetamine) the value was 0.7%, an ...

Dopamine Reuptake Inhibitor
A dopamine reuptake inhibitor (DRI) is a class of drug which acts as a reuptake inhibitor of the monoamine neurotransmitter dopamine by blocking the action of the dopamine transporter (DAT). Reuptake inhibition is achieved when extracellular dopamine not absorbed by the postsynaptic neuron is blocked from re-entering the presynaptic neuron. This results in increased extracellular concentrations of dopamine and increase in dopaminergic neurotransmission. DRIs are used in the treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy for their psychostimulant effects, and in the treatment of obesity and binge eating disorder for their appetite suppressant effects. They are sometimes used as antidepressants in the treatment of mood disorders, but their use as antidepressants is limited given that strong DRIs have a high abuse potential and legal restrictions on their use. Lack of dopamine reuptake and the increase in extracellular levels of dopamine have been l ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Quinuclidine
Quinuclidine is an organic compound and a bicyclic amine and used as a catalyst and a chemical building block. It is a strong base with p''K''a of the conjugate acid of 11.0.{{cite journal , title=Azatriquinanes: Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity , author1=Hext, N.

In alkane solvents quinuclidine is a Lewis base that forms adducts with a variety of Lewis acids. The compound is structurally related to DABCO, in which the other bridgehead is also nitrogen, and to tropane, which has a slightly different carbon frame. Quinuclidine is found as a structural component of some biomolecules including quinine Quinine is a medication used to treat malaria and babesiosis. ...

Cocaine
Cocaine (from , from , ultimately from Quechua: ''kúka'') is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant mainly used recreationally for its euphoric effects. It is primarily obtained from the leaves of two Coca species native to South America, ''Erythroxylum coca'' and ''Erythroxylum novogranatense''. After extraction from coca leaves and further processing into cocaine hydrochloride (powdered cocaine), the drug is often snorted, applied topically to the mouth, or dissolved and injected into a vein. It can also then be turned into free base form ( crack cocaine), in which it can be heated until sublimated and then the vapours can be inhaled. Cocaine stimulates the reward pathway in the brain. Mental effects may include an intense feeling of happiness, sexual arousal, loss of contact with reality, or agitation. Physical effects may include a fast heart rate, sweating, and dilated pupils. High doses can result in high blood pressure or high body temperature. Effects ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
