Mescaline (3,4,5-trimethoxyphenylethylamine; MES) and its analogs, anhalinine (ANH) and methylenemescaline trimer (MMT) were investigated, using sciatic-sartorius preparations of the frog and cortical tissue from the rat. The effects of MES and its analogs were examined with respect to muscle twitch, resting membrane potential and nicotinic receptor binding. Mescaline and its analogs (10-100...
Abstract Cyclocondensation of mescaline (I) with aqueous formaldehyde (II) gives the 1,3,5‐hexahydrotriazine (III) which undergoes ring cleavage and recyclization upon treatment with hydrochlorid acid, producing a mixture of mescaline (I) and anhalinine hydrochloride (IV).
Abstract The four known Cactus alkaloids anhalamine (II), anhalidine (III), rac . anhalonidine (IV) and rac pellotine (V) have been synthesized starting from mescaline (I) by new and simple procedures.
