3,4-Methylenedioxy-N-isopropylamphetamine

From WikiMD.com Medical Encyclopedia

3,4-Methylenedioxy-N-isopropylamphetamine (MDIP) is a synthetic compound belonging to the amphetamine class of psychoactive drugs. It is structurally related to 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA) and 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), which are well-known for their stimulant and empathogenic effects.

Chemical Structure[edit | edit source]

MDIP is characterized by the presence of a methylenedioxy group attached to the phenyl ring, similar to other compounds in the methylenedioxyphenethylamine family. The isopropyl group is attached to the nitrogen atom of the amphetamine backbone, distinguishing it from other related compounds such as MDMA, which has a methyl group instead.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

The pharmacological profile of MDIP is not well-documented, but it is presumed to act as a serotonin and dopamine releasing agent, similar to other methylenedioxy-substituted amphetamines. These compounds typically increase the release of neurotransmitters in the brain, leading to their characteristic psychoactive effects.

Effects[edit | edit source]

The effects of MDIP are not extensively studied, but it is likely to produce stimulant and empathogenic effects similar to those of MDMA and MDA. Users may experience increased energy, enhanced mood, and heightened sensory perception. However, the specific effects and their intensity can vary based on dosage and individual differences.

Legal Status[edit | edit source]

The legal status of MDIP varies by country. In many jurisdictions, it may be classified as a controlled substance due to its structural similarity to other regulated amphetamines. It is important to consult local laws to determine its legal status in a specific region.

Related Compounds[edit | edit source]

MDIP is part of a broader class of compounds known as substituted amphetamines. Other related compounds include:
