The urinary metabolic profiles of three hallucinogenic 2,5-dimethoxy-4-alkylthiophenethylamine analogs: 2,5-dimethoxy-4-ethylthiophenethylamine (2C-T-2), 2,5-dimethoxy-4-isopropylthiophenethylamine (2C-T-4), and 2,5-dimethoxy-4-propylthiophenethylamine (2C-T-7), were investigated in rats. For each drug, four male Sprague-Dawley rats were orally administered 10 mg/kg of 2C-T-2, 2C-T-4, or...
In 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA)-treated rat brain and urine, 3-methyl-6,7-methylenedioxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (3Me6,7MDTIQ) was detected as a new metabolite. The content of 3Me6,7MDTIQ in (R)-MDA-treated rat was significantly higher than that in (S)-MDA-treated brain and urine. This result suggests that this metabolism of MDA contains stereoselective pathways. The...
