Substituted piperazine
class of chemical compounds

Substituted piperazines are a class of chemical compounds based on a piperazine core. Some are used as recreational drugs and some are used in scientific research.
List of substituted piperazines
Benzylpiperazines
Phenylpiperazines
ortho-Substituted
2-Chlorophenylpiperazine (oCPP)
2-Methylphenylpiperazine (oMPP)
2-Methoxyphenylpiperazine (oMeOPP)
Mefeclorazine
Vortioxetine
Enpiprazole is known to produce oCPP as a metabolite. It was initially anticipated to produce oMeOPP as a metabolite, but this proved not to be the case.
meta-Substituted
3-Chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP)
3-Methoxyphenylpiperazine (mMeOPP)
3-Trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine (TFMPP)
1-(3-Chlorophenyl)-4-(2-phenylethyl)piperazine (3C-PEP)
Trazodone, nefazodone, etoperidone, mepiprazole, and others produce mCPP as a metabolite.
para-Substituted
4-Chlorophenylpiperazine (pCPP)
4-Fluorophenylpiperazine (pFPP)
4-Methylphenylpiperazine (pMPP)
4-Methoxyphenylpiperazine (pMeOPP, MeOPP)
4-Nitrophenylpiperazine (pNPP; PAL-175) – selective partial serotonin releasing agent
4-Trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine (pTFMPP)
Multiple substitutions
2,3-Dichlorophenylpiperazine (2,3-DCPP)
3,4-Dichlorophenylpiperazine (3,4-DCPP)
2,3-Dimethylphenylpiperazine (DMPP)
3-Trifluoromethyl-4-chlorophenylpiperazine (TFMCPP; PAL-179) – selective partial serotonin releasing agent
Others
1-Phenylpiperazine (PP)
Other arylpiperazines
1-(1-Naphthyl)piperazine (1-NP)
1-(2-Pyrimidinyl)piperazine (1-PP)
6-Chloro-2-(1-piperazinyl)quinoxaline (CPQ)
ORG-12962 (1-(5-trifluoromethyl-6-chloropyridin-2-yl)piperazine)
Quipazine (2-piperazin-1-ylquinoline)
Many azapirones such as buspirone, gepirone, and tandospirone produce 1-PP as a metabolite.

“Substituted piperazine” enters the record as class of chemical compounds. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what Substituted, piperazine and class can confirm, complicate or overturn.
Why this record matters
“Substituted piperazine” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Substituted, piperazine and class provides the most credible route into that argument.
Datasets, specimens, observations and peer-reviewed methods provide the appropriate test for the technical claims summarized here. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 21, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q48836115. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
Current terminology should not be projected backward without checking the classification used when the underlying evidence was created. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
How to read it
Check terminology, classification and the date of the cited evidence. Scientific names and technical consensus can change while older records retain historical value.
