A review of the synthetic routes to phencyclidine (PCP, 1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine) available in the open literature is presented. The emphasis herein is directed toward the forensic investigation of clandestine PCP laboratories. Six published synthetic routes to PCP/analogs are discussed. Each method is rated for overall yield, degree of difficulty and potential hazard, in order to assist the forensic chemist in evaluation of a particular clandestine operation. One clandestine recipe is illustrated and discussed.

Intraperitoneal administration of the non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonists (5R,10S)-(+)-5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d] cyclohepten-5,10-imine (MK-801, 0.25 and 0.5 mg/kg) and 1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine (PCP, 5 and 10 mg/kg) increased the extracellular concentration of acetylcholine in rat hippocampus but not striatum. In contrast, R-(+)-3-amino-1-hydroxypyrrolid-2-one (R(+)-HA-966, 30 and 60 mg/kg), an antagonist at the glycine modulatory site of the NMDA receptor, did not affect acetylcholine efflux in either region. (+/-)-3-[2-Carboxypiperazin-4-yl]-propyl-1-phosphonic acid ((+/-)CPP, 10 mg/kg) and cis-4-(phosphonomethyl)piperidine-2-carboxylic acid (CGS19755, 5 mg/kg), competitive antagonists at the glutamate agonist site of the NMDA receptor, marginally increased hippocampal acetylcholine efflux. Pretreatment with R(+)-HA-966 (60 mg/kg) or (+/-)CPP (10 mg/kg) attenuated the increase of hippocampal acetylcholine efflux by MK-801 (0.5 mg/kg). However, prior administration of CGS19755 (5 mg/kg) prolonged the MK-801-induced increase of hippocampal acetylcholine efflux. Results demonstrate differential effects on hippocampal and striatal acetylcholine efflux of antagonists at different sites on the NMDA receptor complex and are discussed in relation to previously described effects of these drugs on mesolimbic dopamine function.

To investigate the in vivo functional interaction between phencyclidine (1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine; PCP) binding sites and sigma receptors, we examined the effects of sigma receptor ligands on stereotyped head-weaving behavior induced by PCP, a putative PCP/sigma receptor ligand, and (+)-5-methyl-10,11-dihydroxy-5H-dibenzo(a,d)cyclo-hepten-5,10-imin e ((+)-MK-801; dizocilpine), a selective PCP binding site ligand, in rats. PCP (7.5 mg/kg, i.p.)-induced head-weaving behavior was inhibited by both N,N-dipropyl-2-[4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy)-phenyl]-ethylamine (NE-100; 0.03-1.0 mg/kg, p.o.), a selective sigma1 receptor ligand, and alpha-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(5-fluoro-2-pyrimidinyl)-1-piperidine butanol (BMY-14802; 3 and 10 mg/kg, p.o.), a prototype sigma receptor ligand, in a dose-dependent manner, whereas NE-100 (0.1-1.0 mg/kg, p.o.) and BMY-14802 (3 and 10 mg/kg, p.o.) did not inhibit dizocilpine (0.25 mg/kg, s.c.)-induced head-weaving behavior. These results suggest that NE-100 and BMY-14802 act via sigma receptors. Dizocilpine-induced head-weaving behavior was potentiated by 1,3-di-o-tolyl-guanidine (DTG; 0.03-0.3 microg/kg, i.v.) and (+)-3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-N-(1-propyl)piperidine ((+)-3-PPP; 3 and 6 mg/kg, i.p.), sigma1/sigma2 receptor ligands, as well as by (+)-N-allyl-normetazocine ((+)-SKF-10,047: 8 mg/kg, i.p.), a sigma1 receptor ligand, while DTG (0.3 microg/kg, i.v.), (+)-3-PPP (6 mg/kg, i.p.) and (+)-SKF-10,047 (8 mg/kg, i.p.) did not induce this behavior. Potentiation of dizocilpine-induced head-weaving behavior by DTG (0.3 microg/kg, i.v.), (+)-3-PPP (6 mg/kg, i.p.) and (+)-SKF-10,047 (8 mg/kg, i.p.) was completely blocked by NE-100 (0.1 mg/kg, p.o.) and BMY-14802 (10 mg/kg, p.o.). These results suggest that PCP binding sites and sigma receptors are involved in PCP-induced head weaving behavior, and that sigma1 receptors play an important role in modulation of the head-weaving behavior.

The present study was designed to examine the possible involvement of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmission in the mechanism of phencyclidine (1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine; PCP)-induced dopamine release in the medial prefrontal cortex, using in vivo microdialysis in awake, freely moving rats. Local perfusion via the dialysis probe into the medial prefrontal cortex with PCP (100 and 500 microM) and dizocilpine ((+)-5-methyl-10,11-dihydroxy-5-H-dibenzo(a,d)cyclo-heptan-5,10-im ine; MK-801, 10 and 50 microM), a selective non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist, was found to increase extracellular dopamine levels. Co-perfusion with NMDA (1 mM) or the GABAA receptor agonist muscimol (50 microM) attenuated the effects of PCP (500 microM) and MK-801 (50 microM) on extracellular dopamine levels. The dopamine reuptake inhibitor nomifensine (50 microM) also produced an increase in extracellular dopamine levels in the medial prefrontal cortex, but this effect was not affected by co-perfusion with muscimol (50 microM). On the other hand, local perfusion with PCP (100 and 500 microM) and MK-801 (10 and 50 microM), but not nomifensine (50 microM), reduced extracellular GABA levels in the medial prefrontal cortex. Co-perfusion with NMDA (1 mM) reduced the effects of PCP (500 microM) and MK-801 (50 microM) on extracellular GABA levels. These results suggest that PCP may facilitate dopamine release in the medial prefrontal cortex, at least in part, by the inhibition of GABA release via the antagonism of NMDA receptors.

Phencyclidine hydrochloride (PCP) also known as Angel Dust is a very potent psychotomimetic drug of abuse. Besides its central nervous system (CNS) effects PCP produces a number of adverse effects in a variety of tissues including the cardiovascular system. Since PCP is known to alter the cellular calcium homeostasis the present studies were initiated to determine the changes in cardiac Ca2+ ATPase activity in rats treated with PCP. For in vitro studies the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) fractions prepared from normal rats were incubated with 25, 50 and 100 microM PCP and the enzyme activities were estimated. Whereas, for in vivo studies the cardiac SR fractions prepared from rats treated with PCP (10 mg/kg body wt. single dose, intra-peritoneally (i.p.)) and sacrificed at different time intervals were used. PCP reduced the Ca2+ ATPase activity significantly both in vitro and in vivo. A 50% inhibition of the enzyme activity was obtained with 100 microM PCP in vitro. A significant reduction of SR Ca2+ ATPase was also evident as early as 1 h after treatment of rats with PCP. The reduction of Ca2+ ATPase activity in SR was irreversible even at 12 h after treatment. The in vitro kinetic studies revealed that PCP was found to be a competitive inhibitor of Ca2+ ATPase with respect to the substrate, ATP, and non-competitive with respect to Ca2+ activation. These results indicate that PCP alters the myocardial Ca2+ homeostasis by inhibiting the Ca2+ ATPase in cardiac SR in rats. Inhibition of SR Ca2+ ATPase may result in the impairment of contraction and relaxation coupling processes in the myocardium.

The crystal structure of monoclonal antibody (mAb) 6B5 Fab fragment complexed with 1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine (PCP or phencyclidine) was determined at 2.2-A resolution. 6B5 was originally produced from a mouse immunized with a phencyclidine analogue hapten 5-[N-(1'phenylcyclohexyl)amino]pentanoic acid conjugated to bovine serum albumin. This mAb was selected for further study because of its high affinity (Kd = 2 x 10(-9) M/liter) for PCP and usefulness in reversing PCP-induced central nervous system toxicity in laboratory animals. The dominant feature of the 6B5 Fab.PCP complex is the deep binding site and hydrophobic nature of the interaction. The ligand binding pocket of 6B5 Fab has numerous aromatic side chains, as compared with other known Fab structures. The most notable feature of the binding site is a Trp at position 97H (H-chain), and the side chain of this residue appears to act as a hydrophobic umbrella on the ligand in the antigen binding pocket. There are only two other known Fabs found with a Trp at the 97H position in complementarity determining region (CDR) H3, but they do not play a major role in the interaction with their respective antigens; in both Fab TE33 and R6.5 the Trp 97H side chain is positioned away from the bound antigen. Comparison of the CDR residues of 6B5 with other Fab structures with similar CDR sizes and amino acid compositions reveals a number of important patterns of residue substitutions that appear to be critical for specific PCP ligand interactions.

The possible involvement of the serotonergic neuronal system in aversive motivation produced by phencyclidine [1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine; PCP] was investigated using a place-conditioning paradigm in rats. PCP (4 mg/kg, i.p.) produced place aversion in this task as reported previously (Kitaichi K, Noda Y, Hasegawa T, Furukawa H, Nabeshima T. Acute phencyclidine induces aversion, but repeated phencyclidine induces preference in the place conditioning test in rats. Eur J Pharmacol 1996;318:7-9). The blockade of serotonin2A (5-HT2A) receptors using the antagonist ritanserin (3 and 10 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly attenuated this aversive property of PCP whereas lesions of serotonergic neurons using 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine (5,7-DHT, 100 microg/animal, i.c.v.) failed to affect it. Repeated PCP treatment (10 mg/kg, i.p. for 14 days), which is enough to diminish the stereotyped 5-HT2A receptor-mediated head-twitch behavior, also decreased the place aversion. These results suggest that the serotonergic neuronal system, specifically the 5-HT2A receptor, may play a critical role in producing PCP-induced place aversion.

[3H]MK-801 binding in vivo was used to determine the occupancy of NMDA receptor ligands shown to allosterically modulate binding in vitro. ED(50) values (mg/kg) were obtained for the channel blockers (+)-5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5,4-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5,10-imine maleate ((+)-MK-801, 0.2), 1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine (phencyclidine, PCP, 1.7) and ketamine (4.4). Antagonists at the glutamate (DL-(2-carboxypiperazine-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonate (DL-CPP, 5.7)) and glycine site (7-Chloro-4-hydroxy-3-(3-phenoxy)-phenyl-2(H)quinolinone (L-701,324, 14.1), 3R(+)cis-4-methyl-pyrrollid-2-one (L-687,414, 15.1)) inhibited [3H]MK-801 binding in vivo to varying maximum levels (69%, 103% and 45%, respectively). NR2B subunit-selective compounds acting at the ifenprodil site inhibited [3H]MK-801 in vivo by a maximum of 52-72% and gave ED(50) values (mg/kg) of: (+/-)-(1S*, 2S*)-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(4-hydroxy-4-phenylpiperidino)-1-propanol ((+/-)CP-101,606), 1.9; (+/-)-(3R, 4S)-3-[4-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidin-1-yl]chroman-4,7-diol ((+/-)CP-283,097), 1.8; (+/-)-(R*, S*)-alpha-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-beta-methyl-4-(phenylmethyl)-1-piperidine propanol ((+/-)Ro 25-6981), 1.0; ifenprodil, 6.0. The glycine site agonist D-serine stimulated binding to 151% of control with an ED(50) of 1.7 mg/kg. Results show that [3H]MK-801 binding in vivo may be used to measure receptor occupancy of ligands acting not only within the ion channel but also at modulatory sites on the NMDA receptor complex.

A novel selective sigma(1) receptor ligand, (R)-(+)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-[4-(2-methoxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl]methyl-2-pyrrolidinone L-tartrate (MS-377), inhibits phencyclidine (1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine; PCP)-induced behaviors in animal models. In this study, we measured extracellular dopamine and serotonin levels in the rat brain after treatment with MS-377 alone, using in vivo microdialysis. We also examined the effects of MS-377 on extracellular dopamine and serotonin levels in the rat medial prefrontal cortex after treatment with PCP. MS-377 itself had no significant effects on dopamine release in the striatum (10 mg/kg, p.o.) nor on dopamine or serotonin release in the medial prefrontal cortex (1 and 10 mg/kg, p.o.). PCP (3 mg/kg, i.p.) markedly increased dopamine and serotonin release in the medial prefrontal cortex. MS-377 (1 mg/kg, p.o.), when administered 60 min prior to PCP, significantly attenuated this effect of PCP. These results suggest that the inhibitory effects of MS-377 on PCP-induced behaviors are partly mediated by inhibition of the increase in dopamine and serotonin release in the rat medial prefrontal cortex caused by PCP.

Phencyclidine (1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine, CAS 956-90-1, PCP) has shown analgesic effects. Some of its derivatives have been synthesized and their biological properties were studied. Since a hydroxyl group has been added to the position 2 of the cyclohexane ring of PCP, this compound would be more hydrophilic than PCP. This compound was synthesized using a different and improved method with a higher yield. Its analgesic effect was studied using the tail-flick test on rats and was compared with that of ketamine (CAS 1867-66-9). The results showed that 2-hydroxyphencyclidine can increase tail-flick latencies as compared to the control group and indicate that the maximum analgesic effect of this compound occurs 2-5 min after its injection while the effect of ketamine is observed 10-25 min after injection.
