(1) Common or generic names. Salts forms are not given for simplicity. (2) Trade and street names are exemplary, not exhaustive. Street names change over time and by locality. Salts and free base forms are not distinguished. (3) Other names from Merck Index [13], NIOSH Registry of Toxic Effects of Chemical Substances [14], and MSDS sheets [15, 16]. NOTE: For amphetamine and methamphetamine the prefixes R-, D-, d-, and (+)- , although they mean different things, are essentially synonymous for the dextrorotatory stereoisomer and S-, L-, l-, and (-)- are essentially synonymous for the levorotary stereoisomer. Many other synonyms exist. (4) Uninverted CAS name as given in Merck Index [13]. (5) Extracts of Ephedra species contain various amounts of (+)-Norephedrine, (-)-N-methylephedrine, and (+)-N-methylpseudoephedrine. (+)-Norephedrine is reduced to amphetamine and N-methylephedrine and N-methylpseudoephedrine reduce to N,N-dimethylamphetamine [19, 20]. The presence of these latter two compounds in methamphetamine samples indicate that Ephedra spp. extracts may have been used in the synthesis [21].
