General description
A certified reference solution suitable for use as starting material in calibrators or controls for a variety of LC/MS or GC/MS applications, from clinical toxicology and forensic analysis to urine drug testing and sports testing. (+)-Norpseudoephedrine, also known as cathine, is a psychoactive stimulant of the phenethylamine and amphetamine classes.
Application
- Phytochemical Profiling and Therapeutic Activities: (+)-Norpseudoephedrine hydrochloride solution is utilized in phytochemical profiling studies, specifically analyzing the toxicity, wound healing, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties of Musa paradisiaca L. stem extracts. This research enhances the understanding of natural products in pharmaceutical applications, particularly for their therapeutic potential (Ekweogu et al., 2024).
- Chiral Analysis of Stimulant Drugs: The solution is critical in the development and application of a chiral high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for forensic analysis. This method is used to determine the presence of related amphetamine-type stimulants, providing essential data for law enforcement and drug regulation agencies (Schwelm et al., 2020).
- Microbial Production of Phenylalkylamines: (+)-Norpseudoephedrine hydrochloride serves as a biochemical tool in studies focused on the microbial production of ephedrine and pseudoephedrine, revealing significant implications for the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals and enhancing our understanding of metabolic pathways (Morris et al., 2018).
- Improved Detection Methods for Cathinones: This compound is integral to the improved gas chromatography method for detecting active principles in Catha edulis, demonstrating its utility in identifying and quantifying natural sources of cathinones, which are important for both medical research and drug enforcement (Dell′acqua et al., 2013).
- Chiral Capillary Electrophoresis: Used in chiral capillary electrophoresis for methamphetamine profiling, (+)-Norpseudoephedrine hydrochloride solution assists in distinguishing isomers in forensic samples, which is critical for the precise identification of controlled substances in forensic settings (Iwata et al., 2013).

A primary concern with the forensic analysis of the khat plant (Catha edulis) has been the need to preserve the principle psychoactive component, cathinone, which converts to the less-active substance, cathine, after harvesting. The loss of cathinone has serious legal

Each of the enantiomers of both norephedrine and norpseudoephedrine were stereoselectively prepared from the common, prochiral cyclic sulfamidate imine of racemic 1-hydroxy-1-phenyl-propan-2-one by employing asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) catalyzed by the well-defined chiral Rh-complexes, (S,S)- or (R,R)-Cp*RhCl(TsDPEN), and HCO(2)H/Et(3)N as

Here we contrast the vascular smooth muscle contractility produced by D-nor-pseudoephedrine, alone or combined with triiodothyronine, on the aorta and coronary vasculature of the rat. At high concentrations (greater than those found in normal therapeutic dosing) D-nor-pseudoephedrine contracted the aorta.

Mammalian spermatozoa have been shown to have beta(1,2,3)- and alpha(2A)-adrenergic receptors, the former functioning only in uncapacitated spermatozoa and the latter only in capacitated cells. Cathine, an amphetamine-related metabolite of a compound found in Catha edulis leaves, accelerates capacitation and
