4-methoxy-α-Pyrrolidinobutiophenone (hydrochloride)

Pyrrolidinophenones and butyrophenones are chemical compounds that feature ketone functional groups affixed to the narcotic cathinone. They bear a strong structural relationship with the stimulant α-pyrrolidinopentiophenone and many have been identified as components of designer drugs.^1,2,3 4-methoxy-α-Pyrrolidinobutiophenone(4-MeOPBP) (hydrochloride) is a pyrovalerone analog that shares structural features with 4-methoxy PVP and 4-methyl-α-pyrrolidinobutiophenone . The biological and toxicological properties of this compound have not been evaluated. This product is intended only for forensic and research applications.
