MT-45 (hydrochloride) (CRM)

1-cyclohexyl-4-(1,2-diphenylethyl)-piperazine, dihydrochloride
\n MT-45 (hydrochloride) (CRM) (Item No. 19737) is a certified reference material that is structurally categorized as a piperazine. It displays potent analgesic activity comparable to morphine (Item No. ISO60147) despite being structurally unrelated to most other opioids.{23574} In particular, the S-(+)-enantiomer of MT-45 (Item No. 15128) displays analgesic potency similar to that of morphine (ED50s = 0.35 and 0.4 μg/kg, i.v., respectively in Haffner’s mouse tail-pinch method), whereas the R-(−)-isomer (Item No. 15127) displays comparatively weak activity (ED50 = 2 μg/kg, i.v.).{23573} Furthermore, the analgesic activity of the racemate (±) is reported to be more potent (ED50 = 0.12 μg/kg, i.v.) than its enantiomorphic pairs.{23573} MT-45 has been used as a lead compound to develop a large group of potent opioid drugs with agonist or antagonist activities particular to the various opioid receptor subtypes.{23575} This product is intended for forensic and research applications.
