Athienodiazepine[1] is aheterocyclic compound containing adiazepine ring fused to athiophene ring.
If R1 and R2 are part of atriazole ring, the substance is called a "thienotriazolodiazepine."
The thienodiazepine structure forms the central core of some pharmaceutical and recreational drugs, includingetizolam,bentazepam,clotiazepam, andtofisopam.
Since thienodiazepines interact with thebenzodiazepine receptor site, they typically have similar effects asbenzodiazepines.
