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 (α-PVP; Item No. 9001083) 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 (Item No. 14097) and 4-methyl-α-pyrrolidinobutiophenone (Item No. 9001190). The biological and toxicological properties of this compound have not been evaluated. This product is intended only for forensic and research applications.WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
