Californidine Perchlorate

Abstract

California poppy (Eschscholzia californica) is widely used for the treatment of nervousness, anxiety and sleeping disorders. The sedative, anxiolytic, and analgesic effects of the plant are thought to be associated with the quaternary alkaloids. Products from the plant have been prepared in two primary methods: used of the fresh petals to make a syrup, and dried petals are added to water or boiled to make an infusion. The most common alkaloids in order of abundance include californidine (CAS 17939-31-0), escholtzine, and protopine.

The alkaloids have been hypothesized to act on GABA receptors.

Californidine, as well as the other California poppy alkaloids, are sold as a salt of perchloric acid.
