Abstract:
The results of the analysis of some herbal products and powders adulterated with alkylindoles recovered
on the Italian market between 2010 and 2011 are reported. Besides the well-known alkyindoles JWH-018
and JWH-073, other derivatives such as JWH-250 and AM-694 have been detected and for the first time in
Italy 1-butyl-3-(1-(4-methyl)naphthoyl)indole (compound 1), the 4-methylnaphthoyl analogue of JWH-
073. This compound as well as the other alkylindoles has been synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR,
13C NMR, DSC, GC/MS, and elemental analysis.
The quantitative analyses of the samples have been carried out by means of the GC/FID method
developed in our laboratory for the analysis of herbal high products containing naphthoylindoles; the
quantity of the cannabimimetic substances ranged from 6 mg/g to 47 mg/g.
