MDPHP (3,4-Methylenedioxy-α-Pyrrolidinohexanophenone) belongs to a class of research chemicals called central nervous system stimulants. It is a novel designer drug, which refers to a synthetic version of a controlled substance that is produced with a slightly altered molecular structure to avoid having it classified as an illicit drug.
MDPHP is an analog of MDPV that differs only by the addition of a single carbon to the alkyl chain. The physiological and toxicological properties of this compound are not known. This product is intended for forensic and research applications.
1-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-2-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-1-Hexanone, also known as MDPHP, is a synthetic cathinone.
