Benocyclidine, also known as benzoШаблон:WbrthiophenylШаблон:WbrcycloШаблон:Wbrhexylpiperidine (BTCP), is a psychoactive recreational drug of the arylcyclohexylamine class which is related to phencyclidine (PCP). It was first described in a patent application naming Marc Caron and colleagues at Duke University in 1997.[1]
It acts as a potent and selective dopamine reuptake inhibitor (DRI) and a psychostimulant.[2][3] Unlike related compounds like phencyclidine and ketamine, benocyclidine is a pure DRI with negligible affinity for the NMDA receptor, and it therefore lacks any anticonvulsant, anesthetic, hallucinogenic, or dissociative effects.[2][3] It has been used to label the dopamine transporter.[4][5] BCP was used to try to find a common pharmacophore for DRI type stimulants.[6]
More recently, benocyclidine has been found in several ecstasy tablets, sold as MDMA.[7]
Legal status in the United States
Benocyclidine is a Schedule I controlled substance in the state of Florida and Virginia, making it illegal to buy, sell, or possess in these states.[8][9]
Otherwise, benocyclidine is not scheduled at the federal level in the United States,[10] but may be considered an analog of PCP, in which case purchase, sale, or possession could be prosecuted under the Federal Analog Act if intended for human consumption.
