2,3-Dichlorophenylpiperazine

"DCPP" redirects here. For other uses, see DCPP (disambiguation).

2,3-Dichlorophenylpiperazine (2,3-DCPP or DCPP) is a chemical compound from the phenylpiperazine family. It is both a precursor in the synthesis of aripiprazole and one of its metabolites.^[1][2] It is unclear whether 2,3-DCPP is pharmacologically active as a serotonin receptor agonist similar to its close analogue 3-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP), though it has been shown to act as a partial agonist of the dopamine D₂ and D₃ receptors.^[3]

Positional Isomer

3,4-DCPP, CAS# 57260-67-0

The positional isomer 3,4-dichlorophenylpiperazine (3,4-DCPP) is also known, and acts as both a serotonin releaser via the serotonin transporter,^[8] and a β₁-adrenergic receptor blocker,^[9] though with relatively low affinity at both targets.

Triple Substituted

The 3,4,5-Trichlorophenylpiperazine [67305-64-0] ("3 stripes") is also a highly regarded arrangement & has been awarded the Beecham patent of U.S. patent 4,139,621. Such 3,4,5-Trisubstituted aromatic entities is already known from clenbuterol. Leading to CID:151687078 WO 1993021179 (Ex 6 is a concrete example of this) i.e. 1-(4-Amino-3,5-dichlorophenyl)-4-(4-phthalimido-1- butyl)piperazine.
