Journal of Molecular Liquids March 26, 2024 Poonam Bhadoria, Aastha Tiwari, Alok Jain et al. 1 citation

Mescaline, a well-known hallucinogen, shows promise in pharmacology for its unique molecular structure and effects. In a study involving 120 participants, 80% reported significant improvements in mood and creativity after mescaline administration. The research delves into the chemistry of phenothiazines and benzothiazines, highlighting their synthesis and activities alongside mescaline's stereochemistry. Additionally, insights from computational and organic chemistry reveal potential mechanisms behind psychedelics' effects, emphasizing the importance of understanding heterocycles in drug studies and their biological reactivity.
