Design, Synthesis, and Pharmacokinetic Profiling of Fluorinated Reversible N -Alkyl Carbamate Derivatives of Psilocin for Sub-Hallucinogenic Brain Exposure
Journal of Medicinal Chemistry January 26, 2026 Marco Banzato, Martina Colognesi, Lorena Lucatello et al.
Psilocybin, the phosphorylated prodrug of psilocin, holds therapeutic promise across a range of neuropsychiatric conditions, yet its clinical utility is constrained by acute psychoactive effects. Here, we report the rational design, synthesis, and evaluation of a focused library of fluorinated reversible N-alkyl carbamate derivatives of psilocin aimed at reducing acute psilocin exposure and...
