Dibenzylpiperazine (DBZP) is apiperazine derivative often found as an impurity in the recreationalstimulant drugbenzylpiperazine (BZP).[1] Presence of DBZP is a marker for low quality or badly made BZP. It can be made as a reactionbyproduct during BZP synthesis, either because the reaction has been run at too high a temperature, or because an excess ofbenzyl chloride has been used.
It is not known to have any stimulant effects in its own right, although this has not been tested.
The toxicity of DBZP is unknown.
As of October 2015 DBZP is a controlled substance in China.[2]
DBZP is not scheduled as acontrolled substance at the federal level in theUnited States.[3] It is possible that it could be considered an analog BZP, in which case, sales or possession intended for human consumption could be prosecuted under theFederal Analog Act.
DBZP is aSchedule I controlled substance in the state ofFlorida making it illegal to buy, sell, or possess in Florida.[4]
