Solypertine (INNTooltip International Nonproprietary Name; developmental code name WIN-18413), also known as solypertine tartrate (USANTooltip United States Adopted Name) in the case of the tartrate salt, is a drug described as an antiadrenergic (or adrenolytic/sympatholytic) and as also potentially possessing neuroleptic properties which was never marketed.[1][2][3][4][5]

Structurally, it is a substituted tryptamine and a piperazinylethylindole.[6] The drug is closely structurally related to other "pertines" including alpertine, milipertine, and oxypertine, which are also tryptamines and piperazinylethylindoles.[6] Solypertine can be synthesized from 5,6-methylenedioxyindole.[7]

The related drug oxypertine shows high affinity for the serotonin 5-HT2 and dopamine D2 receptors (Ki = 8.6 nM and 30 nM, respectively) and is also known to act as a catecholamine depleting agent.[8][9] Oxypertine, milipertine, and solypertine all antagonize the behavioral effects of tryptamine, a serotonin receptor agonist, and apomorphine, a dopamine receptor agonist, in animals.[8][10] ortho-Methoxyphenylpiperazine (oMeOPP) has been said to be a metabolite of milipertine and oxypertine.[11][12]

Solypertine was first described in the scientific literature by 1962.[1][13]
