Arylcyclohexylamines
Arylcyclohexylamines, also known as arylcyclohexamines or arylcyclohexanamines, are a chemical class of pharmaceutical drug, pharmaceutical, designer drug, designer, and experimental drugs. History Phencyclidine (PCP) is believed to be the first arylcyclohexylamine with recognized anesthetic properties, but several arylcyclohexylamines were described before PCP in the scientific literature, beginning with PCA (1-phenylcyclohexan-1-amine) the synthesis of which was first published in 1907. PCP itself was discovered in 1926 but not researched by the pharmaceutical industry until the 1950s. Eticyclidine, PCE was reported in 1953 and PCMo (4-(1-phenyl-cyclohexyl)-morpholine see chart below for figure) in 1954, with PCMo described as a potent sedative. Arylcyclohexylamine anesthetics were intensively investigated at Parke-Davis, beginning with the 1956 studies of PCP and later the related compound ketamine. The 1970s saw the debut of these compounds, especially PCP and its structura ...

Hallucinogen persisting perception disorder, Flashbacks may occur despite stopping usage. Chemically, PCP is a member of the arylcyclohexylamine chemical classification, class. PCP works primarily as an NMDA receptor antagonist. PCP is most commonly u ...
