Quinpirole (LY 171,555) is a psychoactive drug and research chemical which acts as a selective D2 and D3 receptor agonist. Quinpirole is the most widely used D2 agonist in in vivo and in vitro studies. Specific quinpirole binding in rat brain was saturable, and dependent on temperature, membrane concentration, sodium concentration and guanine nucleotides. Saturation analysis revealed high affinity binding characteristics (KD = 2.3 nM) which were confirmed by association-dissociation kinetics. The regional distribution of [3H]quinpirole binding sites roughly paralleled the distribution of [3H]spiperone binding sites, with greatest densities present in the striatum, nucleus accumbens and olfactory tubercles. A variety of drugs, most notably monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOls), inhibit the binding of [3H]quinpirole, but not [3H]spiperone or [3H](-)N-n-Propylnorapomorphine, in rat striatal membranes by a mechanism that does not appear to involve the enzymatic activity of MAO. Clinically antidepressant MAOIs exhibited selectivity between sites labeled by [3H]quinpirole and [3H]spiperone as did a number of structurally related propargylamines and N-acylethylenediamine derivatives and other drugs such as debrisoquin and phenylbiguanide. Quinpirole has been shown to increase locomotion and sniffing behavior in mice and induces compulsive behavior symptomatic of obsessive compulsive disorder in rats.

Teniloxazine (also known as sulfoxazine or sufoxazine or Y 8894) was developed as an antidepressant. Teniloxazine belongs to the selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (NRIs) and was studied for the treatment of the major depressive disorder. Clinical trials have shown that 50 mg of the drug lacked the anticholinergic, sedative and cardiovascular effects. In the elderly, some effects were recognized, in part, due to pharmacokinetic alteration. In addition, teniloxazine was studied for patients with Alzheimer's disease, however, doesn’t exist any development report for this study.

Ocfentanil, a compound structurally similar to the opioid analgesic fentanyl, was developed in the early 1990’s with the hope that it would provide a better clinical safety profile than fentanyl. The receptor pharmacology of ocfentanil appears to share pharmacodynamic effects with fentanyl and other μ opioid agonists, including analgesia, sedation, and respiratory depression. In rodents, ocfentanil was approximately 2.5 times more potent as an analgesic than fentanyl and had a shorter duration of action. Because the preclinical research suggested that ocfentanil had a better safety profile than fentanyl, it was selected for clinical evaluation. Like other μ opioid agonists, ocfentanil has been reported to produce itching, nausea, sedation, and severe respiratory depression. Chest pain, psychosis, and agitation have also been reported. In humans, however, ocfentanil had a similar potency (3 ug/kg ocfentanil produced effects that were comparable to 5 ug/kg fentanyl) and side-effects profile as fentanyl so further clinical development was discontinued. Ocfentanil is not approved in any country for medical useand is under national control in Canada, the United Kingdom, and China.

IPROCROLOL is a beta-adrenoceptor antagonist with antiarrhythmic properties.

Odalprofen was used as an analgesic. Information about the current use of this compound is not available.

IPRAVACAINE is a long-acting local anesthetic which anesthetic potency is similar to that of bupivacaine. It blocks the open state of human cardiac K+ channels.

Xorphanol (also known as TR5379M) is a full κ-opioid receptor agonist and is a partial agonist at μ opioid receptor. Clinically, xorphanol was studied as an orally active analgesic that provided effective pain relief but showed low physical dependence liability. Further development of this drug was discontinued.
