RESUMO
Solid-state 13C and 19F NMR spectroscopy offers a non-destructive, highly selective protocol for the identification of forensically relevant synthetic cannabinoids on herbal substrates. Using this technique, well resolved 13C spectra were obtained that readily enabled structural identification; in some instances complemented by 19F spectral data. The approach described has potential for related applications such as the direct detection of pesticides on plants.

Robust methodology to install amide, carbamate, urea and sulfonamide functionality to the 1,8-naphthalimide scaffold has been developed and exemplified. New benzamidonaphthalimide 6, synthesised using this approach, was found to be sensitive to base whereupon fluorescence emission strongly increases (>10-fold) and red-shifts (>4000 cm-1). The optical properties of deprotonated 6 allow for single molecule fluorescence detection, the first example of such behaviour from this class of fluorophore.
RESUMO
This paper reports an investigation into the temporal stability of aqueous solutions of psilocin and psilocybin reference drug standards over a period of fourteen days. This study was performed using high performance liquid chromatography utilising a (95:5% v/v) methanol: 10 mM ammonium formate, pH 3.5 mobile phase and absorption detection at 269 nm. It was found that the exclusion of light significantly prolonged the useful life of standards, with aqueous solutions of both psilocin and psilocybin being stable over a period of seven days.
