Identification of Phencyclidine-Related Drugs

Robert Leonard Epstein, P Lorimer, EJ Sloma

Abstract

Abstract The appearance of new drugs within the crime laboratory necessitates the development and improvement of analytical schemes for their detection. One class of particular interest is the phencyclidine-related drugs. The drugs studied are 1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl) piperidine (PCP), commonly known as phencyclidine, “Angel's Dust,” or DOA [1]; the two homologs 1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl) pyrrolidine (PHP) and 1-(1-phenylcyclopentyl) piperidine (PPP); and an analog 1-(2[thienyl]cyclohexyl) piperidine (TCP).
