Experiments were conducted to compare the effects of 4-ethoxyamphetamine, a novel "designer" amphetamine, with (+)-amphetamine and an earlier "designer" amphetamine, 4-methoxyamphetamine, on rats. (+)-Amphetamine significantly decreased frequency threshold measures in an intracranial self-stimulation (ICSS) procedure using medial forebrain bundle electrodes

1. It is well established that the commonly used recreational drugs 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, 'ecstasy') and para-methoxyamphetamine (PMA) facilitate the release and prevent the reuptake of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin). Although these drugs have similar potencies for their abilities to increase the

Electrochemical discrimination between dopamine and psychotropic drugs which have in common a skeletal structure of phenethylamine, can be obtained using acyclic receptors L(1) and L(2), containing two terminal 3-alkoxy-5-nitroindazole rings. Upon attachment to graphite electrodes, L(1) and L(2) exhibit a
