Diclazafone desglycyl is a chemical compound that can act as both a prodrug and a synthetic precursor for the benzodiazepine derivative delorazepam, the N-desmethyl derivative of the designer benzodiazepine diclazepam. It is inactive in vitro but has similar effects to delorazepam in vivo due to metabolic conversion to the active benzodiazepine form. ^[1] It has been detected as a designer drug, first being identified in Denmark in September 2024. ^[2]
