4-fluoro-α-Pyrrolidinobutiophenone (hydrochloride)

Pyrrolidinophenones, including 4-methyl-α-PBP (4-MePBP; Item No. 9001190), are synthetic cathinones that have been identified in party pills.1,2,3 Although not much is known regarding their pharmacological actions, pyrrolidinophenones have potential for abuse due to their close structural relation to pyrovalerone (Item No. 10817). 4-fluoro-α-PBP is an analog of 4-MePBP in which a fluorine is substituted for a methyl at the four position of the phenyl ring. Its physiological and toxicological properties have not been determined. This product is intended for forensic and research applications.WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
