Annex to Form D ("Red List") Ninth Edition, January 2005 Prepared by the INTERNATIONAL NARCOTICS CONTROL BOARD Vienna International Centre P.O.Box 500 A-1400 Vienna, Austria in accordance with the United Nations Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances, 1988 containing the LIST OF PRECURSORS AND CHEMICALS FREQUENTLY USED IN THE ILLICIT MANUFACTURE OF NARCOTIC DRUGS AND PSYCHOTROPIC SUBSTANCES UNDER INTERNATIONAL CONTROL Introduction
This list has been prepared by the International Narcotics Control Board (INCB) as a tool to
be used for the identification of substances scheduled in Tables I and II of the United Nations Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances, 1988 (1988 Convention).
All those involved with the implementation of the provisions of article 12 of the 1988
Convention, including regulatory, administrative and law enforcement authorities, will find the list helpful. For example, it will be required to complete the Board's Form D, "Annual information on substances frequently used in the illicit manufacture of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances", as required under the provisions of article 12, paragraph 12. It will also be required by regulatory and administrative authorities to check the names of chemicals associated with, inter alia, applications for authorizations for export or import. Law enforcement authorities will require the information, inter alia, to check documentation accompanying consignments of chemicals and to further identify chemicals seized at illicit laboratories.
The list is comparable to the lists of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances under
international control, and the alphabetical listings of other names and trade names of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, which are published by the Board as the "Yellow List" and the "Green List", respectively. Part One gives a list of those substances scheduled in Tables I and II of the 1988 Convention. The list is divided into two sections, the first listing those substances included in Table I, and the second listing those substances in Table II. English, French and Spanish names as used in the respective versions of the Tables of the 1988 Convention are given, as well as Harmonized System (HS) codes and Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry numbers, to facilitate rapid identification of all scheduled substances. The full Chemical Abstracts Index name of each substance is given also for reference purposes. Part Two lists in alphabetical order the chemical names, synonyms and trade names, etc., of the substances included in Part One. Although not explicitly stated in the 1988 Convention, it is understood that the name of each of those substances, as given in the Tables of the Convention, covers also all isomeric forms of the substance. Consequently, it should be noted that where a specific isomer is listed in Part Two, for example l-ephedrine as a synonym for ephedrine, this should not be understood to mean that only the l-form of ephedrine is controlled.
Part Three provides a table of conversion factors needed to convert quantities of scheduled substances in their salt form into quantities of pure anhydrous base. Part Four lists those Governments that have requested pre-export notifications pursuant to article 12, paragraph 10 (a), of the 1988 Convention. Regular updating of the information provided in this list, particularly that relating to the chemical names, synonyms and trade names, etc., of scheduled substances, will be necessary to ensure the effectiveness of controls. INCB, with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), has established a database containing this information, using as a basic source, and adding to, an index of other names, synonyms and trade names collated by the Laboratory and Scientific Section of UNODC. Governments are kindly requested to provide the Board with any additions and/or amendments to the information provided to ensure that this database is maintained up to date. PART ONE: SUBSTANCES SCHEDULED IN TABLES I AND II OF THE 1988 CONVENTION
English, French and Spanish names as used in the respective versions of Tables I and II of the 1988 Convention
are given, as well as Harmonized System (HS) codes and Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry numbers, to facilitate rapid identification of all scheduled substances. Chemical Abstracts Index names are given in parentheses.
Acetic anhydride (acetic oxide) Anhydride acétique Anhídrido acético N-Acetylanthranilic acid (benzoic acid, 2-(acetylamino)-) Acide N-acétylanthranilique Acido N-acetilantranílico
Potassium permanganate (permanganic acid (HMnO4), potassium salt) Permanganate de potassium Permanganato potásico Pseudoephedrine ([S-(R*,R*)]--[1-(methylamino)ethyl]- Pseudoéphédrine benzenemethanol) Seudoefedrina (1,3-benzodioxole,5-(2-propenyl)-)
The salts of the substances listed in this Table whenever the existence of such salts is possible.
(2-propanone) Acétone
Sulphuric acid 1 (sulfuric acid) Acide sulfurique Acido sulfúrico (benzene, methyl-) Toluène
The salts of the substances listed in this Table whenever the existence of such salts is possible.
The salts of hydrochloric acid and sulphuric acid are specifically excluded from Table II.
PART TWO: CHEMICAL NAMES, SYNONYMS AND TRADE NAMES, ETC., OF SCHEDULED SUBSTANCES AND THEIR SALTS, IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER
The names of substances as given in the 1988 Convention are printed in bold type. They are
accompanied by a reference to whether the related substances are scheduled in Table I or Table II of the 1988 Convention, as detailed in PART ONE.
Listed chemical names, synonyms and trade names apply sometimes to pure substances and
sometimes to the salts of those substances. In all such cases, reference is made to the substance name as given in PART ONE. Commercial products identified by their trade names usually contain a scheduled substance mixed with one or more other ingredients. As indicated in the Introduction it is understood that the names of the substances, as given in the Tables of the Convention, cover all isomeric forms of the substances.
The list does not assume to be comprehensive. The absence of any chemical name, synonym
or trade name, etc., for a scheduled substance does not necessarily mean that the substance with that name is not under international control. Further, it should be noted that the same name, particularly common or trade names, may be used for different substances in different countries. In cases where ambiguity may occur, it is recommended that the name of the substance in question should always be checked against the chemical designation or formula.
All chemical names, synonyms and trade names are listed alphabetically wherever possible.
Chemical names with a prefix are included at the respective alphabetical position of the substance itself. Thus, for example,
N-acetylaminobenzoic acid is listed under "a",
trans-ephedrine is listed under "e",
D-lysergic acid is listed under "l",
1,2-methylenedioxy-4-allyl-benzene is listed under "m",
∀-toluic acid is listed under "t", etc.

Giving up cigarettes can be much harder for some smokers than others. Dr. Kirk Flury, a specialist in pulmonary medicine who helps with the smoking cessa-tion classes at St. Joseph Hospital of Kirkwood, says one-third to 40 percent of smokersare nicotine-dependent. “Even though they go through behavioral changes, they reach asignificant barrier to stopping smoking,” Flury said. “They havet
