The phenethylamine-derived designer drug 4-bromo-2,5-dimethoxy-beta-phenethylamine (2C-B) is known to be extensively metabolized in various species including humans. In rat urine, 2C-B was found to be excreted mainly via its metabolites. In the current study, the toxicological detection of these metabolites in the authors' systematic toxicological analysis (STA) procedure was examined. The STA...
Studies are described on the metabolism and the toxicological analysis of the amphetamine-derived designer drug 2,5-dimethoxy-4-bromo-amphetamine (DOB) and its corresponding N-methyl analogue 2,5-dimethoxy-4-bromo-methamphetamine (MDOB) in rat urine using gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric techniques. The identified metabolites indicated that DOB was metabolized by O-demethylation followed...
