Diphenidine(1,2-DEP,DPD,DND) is adissociativeanestheticthat has been sold as adesigner drug.[2][3][4]The synthesis of diphenidine was first reported in 1924, and employed a Bruylants reaction analogous to the one that would later be used to discoverphencyclidinein 1956.[2]Shortly after the 2013 UK ban onarylcyclohexylamines,diphenidine and the related compoundmethoxphenidinebecame available on thegrey market.[2]Anecdotal reports describe high doses of diphenidine producing "bizarre somatosensory phenomena and transient anterograde amnesia."[2]Diphenidine and related diarylethylamines have been studied in vitro as treatments for neurotoxic injury and are antagonists of theNMDA receptor.[5][6][7][8][9]In dogs diphenidine exhibits greater antitussive potency thancodeine phosphate.[10][11]

Electrophysiologicalanalysis demonstrates that the amplitude of NMDA-mediatedfEPSPsare reduced by diphenidine and ketamine to a similar extent, with diphenidine displaying a slower onset of antagonism.[7]The two enantiomers of diphenidine differ greatly in their ability to block the NMDA receptor, with the more potent (S)-enantiomer possessing affinity forty times higher than the (R)-enantiomer.[6]Since diphenidine's introduction in 2013 vendors have stated the drug "acts on dopamine transport" yet no data concerning the action of diphenidine on thedopamine transporterwas published until 2016.[2]Diphenidine's highest affinity is for the NMDA receptor, but it does display submicromolar affinity for theσ1receptor,σ2receptoranddopamine transporter.[12][13]

Since 2014 there have been several published reports of diphenidine being sold in combination with other research chemicals, particularly synthetic cannabinoids and stimulants in Japaneseherbal incenseblends.[14][15][16]The first reported seizure concerned a Japanese product called "fragrance powder" containing diphenidine andbenzylpiperazine.[17]Aherbal incensesold in theShizuoka Prefectureunder the name "Aladdin Spacial [sic] Edition "was found to contain diphenidine and5F-AB-PINACAat concentrations of 289 mg/g and 55.5 mg/g, respectively.[14]A product calledHerbal Incense. The Super LemoncontainingAB-CHMINACA,5F-AMB,and diphenidine was implicated in a fatal poisoning.[15]Most recently diphenidine consumed in conjunction with threesubstituted cathinones,threebenzodiazepines,and alcohol was implicated in a fatal ingestion of "bath salt" and "liquid aroma" products in Japan.[18]

In Canada, MT-45 and its analogues were made Schedule I controlled substances, which includes DPD in its structural group.[19]Possession without legal authority can result in maximum seven years imprisonment. Further,Health Canadaamended theFood and Drug Regulationsin May, 2016 to classify explicitly DPD as a restricted drug. Only those with a law enforcement agency, person with an exemption permit or institutions with Minister's authorization may possess the drug.
